Screening of Antimicrobial Activity of Siddha drug Kukkiladhi Choornam
Plan: Kukkiladhi choornam is one of the Siddha drugs, which has been indicated for its anti-microbial properties. The aim of the present study was to validate the antibacterial and antifungal activity of Kukkiladhi choornam extract against various microorganisms.
Preface: The present study examined the in-vitro screening of antimicrobial activity of Siddha drug Kukkiladhi choornam.
Methodology: The extracts were tested for antimicrobial activity using agar well diffusion on solid media. The microorganisms used in the present study include Streptococcus pyogenes, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhi, Shigella flexneri, Proteus vulgaris, and Candida albicans.
Outcome: The study revealed that 50µl extract of Kukkiladhichoornam had significant inhibiting activity against Shigellaflexneri (17mm), Streptococcus pyogenes (17mm) and Candida albicans (18mm).
