Project Abstract

The emergence of antimicrobial resistance poses a significant threat to global public health, highlighting the urgent need for alternative antimicrobial agents. Plant extracts have long been recognized for their potential antimicrobial properties, making them an attractive option for combating pathogenic bacteria. This research project aims to investigate the antimicrobial properties of various plant extracts against pathogenic bacteria. The abstract will explore the background of the study, highlighting the increasing prevalence of antimicrobial resistance and the potential of plant extracts as a natural and sustainable solution. The problem statement will emphasize the limitations of conventional antibiotics and the need for novel antimicrobial agents. The objectives of the study will focus on determining the antimicrobial efficacy of selected plant extracts against a panel of pathogenic bacteria. The methodology will involve the extraction of bioactive compounds from different plant sources using various extraction techniques. The antimicrobial activity of the plant extracts will be evaluated through standard microbiological assays, including agar diffusion and broth dilution methods. The study will also investigate the mechanisms of action of the plant extracts against pathogenic bacteria. The results and discussion section will present the findings of the antimicrobial screening, highlighting the effectiveness of certain plant extracts against specific pathogenic bacteria. The discussion will delve into the potential applications of these plant extracts as alternative antimicrobial agents and the implications for combating antimicrobial resistance. In conclusion, this research project will contribute to the growing body of knowledge on the antimicrobial properties of plant extracts against pathogenic bacteria. The findings have the potential to inform the development of new antimicrobial agents derived from natural sources, offering a sustainable and environmentally friendly approach to combatting antimicrobial resistance.
