Abstract :
Rhizome extracts of Curcuma aromatica and Curcuma longa (Zingiberaceae) from southern Western Ghats of Tamil Nadu, India were investigated for their antibacterial activity by agar well diffusion method against bacterial human pathogens such as Escherichia coli, β-haemo streptococci, Klebsiella penumoniae, Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella typhi, Bacillus subtilis and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The study revealed that except Pseudomonas aeruginosa, all the pathogens were inhibited by various extracts (Methanol, Ethanol, n-Butanol and Acetone) of Curcuma spp. sometimes far better than the control antibiotic Amoxicillin. Pseudomonas aeruginosa was inhibited by n-Butanol extract of C. longa as equal as standard antibiotic. These results clearly elucidates that Curcuma aromatica and Curcuma longa collected from wild have higher antibacterial activity than that of standard antibiotic.
