CHAPTER FOUR
Table 1 shows the sensitivity pattern of some bacterial isolate on Moringa oleifera. From this study, it was observed that the mean of the control group (34.00±2.00; 29.00±1.00; 28.33±2.08; 15.00±1.00; 16.33±1.53; 26.33±1.53) are significantly higher than other mg/ml concentration of crude extract from other groups. Mean of 0.0625mg/ml are also significantly lower than other mg/ml concentration of crude extract. It was observed that the sensitivity pattern of 0.125mg/ml and 0.0625mg/ml concentration of crude extract for Escherichia coli are the same while that of 0.25mg/ml and 0.125mg/ml concentration of crude extract for Pseudomonaaureginosa are also the same. It can also be observed that the control group and 1.0mg/ml concentration of crude extract for Proteus penneri, Salmonella typhi and Streptococcus pneumonia are the same. For Streptococcus pneumonia, the mean sensitivity of 0.5mg/ml and 0.125mg/ml concentration of crude extract are the same while the mean sensitivity of 0.25mg/ml and 0.125mg/ml concentration of crude extract are also the same although the mean sensitivity of 0.5mg/ml and 0.25mg/ml concentration of crude extract are different.

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 ... 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 or ... Continue reading---
CHAPTER THREE - [ Total Page(s): 2 ]CHAPTER THREE3.0 MATERIALS AND METHODS Collection and Identification of plant leaves Healthy leaves of Jatropha curcas and Moringa oleifera were harvested from saw-mill area garden Moniya Ibadan,Nigeria in October 2017.the taxonomical identification of the plant was confirmed by a plant taxonomist Mr Bolu Ajayi University Ilorin, Kwara State .voucher number UILH/001/1008/UILH/002/1018The fresh leaves of Jatropha curcas and Moringa oleifera were harvested, rinsed with tap water and air-drie ...

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 plan ...
