Other claims from this paper (8)
- Observation Phytochemical screening of Cadaba farinosa revealed cardiac glycosides, flavonoids and glycosides.
- Observation Phytochemical screening of Cadaba farinosa revealed saponins and tannins.
- Intervention effect Both leaf extracts (CEE and NBU) showed dose-dependent inhibition of all tested bacteria, outperforming standard antibiotics.
- Observation The minimum inhibitory concentration of both extracts was 5 mg/ml.
- Observation The CEE extract at 20 mg/hole gave 140.9 mm susceptibility in Corynebacterium diphtheriae.
- Observation The NBU extract at 40 mg/hole gave 200.0 mm susceptibility in Corynebacterium diphtheriae.
- Observation Similar inhibition patterns were observed for seven other tested bacteria.
- Mechanism The antibacterial activity of Cadaba farinosa extracts is attributed to phenolic content acting through enzyme inhibition and protein inactivation.
