      CHAPTER ONE - [ Total Page(s): 2 ]CHAPTER ONE1.0    INTRODUCTION 1.1      BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY      Plants have been used for centuries before the advent of Orthodox medicine. Leaves, flowers, stems, roots, seeds, fruit and bark can all be constituents of herbal medicines. The medicinal values of these plants depend on their phytochemical components, which produces definite physiological actions on the human body. The most important of these phytochemicals are alkaloids, tannins, flavonoids and phenolic compounds (Afolabi et al., 2007; Okorondu et al, 2010). Moringa is the sole genus in the flowering plant famil ... Continue Reading

         

      CHAPTER TWO - [ Total Page(s): 8 ]Usually for extraction solvents from nonpolar to polar are used. But solvents such as methanol, ethanol, acetone, ethyl acetate, acetic acid, petroleum ether, chloroform, benzene (Fuleki et al., 1997; Jayaprakasha et al. 2003; Ozkan et al., 2004; Xu and Chang 2007) and their combinations have been used for the extraction of phenolics from plant materials, often with different proportions of water. Since nearly all of the identified antimicrobial compounds from plants are aromatic or saturated organic compounds, they are most often obtained through initial ethanol or methanol extraction (Serked ...

Control showed 16mm ... Continue Reading

         

      CHAPTER FIVE - [ Total Page(s): 1 ]CHAPTER FIVE5.1    DISCUSSIONThe result of this investigation revealed that the leaf extracts of Moringa oleifera and Jatropha curcas possesses appreciable antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. The extracts inhibited the growth of E.coli and S.sureus of various concentrations. The minimum inhibitory concentration of both leaf extracts on the test organisms ranged between 0.250mg.ml and 0.125.g/ml. Jabovska et al. (2003) reported that antimicrobials of plant origin are not usually associated with any side effects and have enormous therapeutic potentials t ... Continue Reading
