Antimicrobial & Antioxidant Properties of Chrysophyllum Albidum Leaf, Fruits & Seeds

The study was carried out to determine the antimicrobial and antioxidant activities on the leaves, seed and fruits of Chrysophyllum albidum. The fruits, leaves and seed of Chrysophyllum albidum were extracted with distilled water, Seaman¿s Schnapps, Methanol and Petroleum ether using cold extraction. These extracts were tested on various organisms. Antimicrobial activities of the various extracts were determined using the agar well diffusion technique to detect the Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC). The antioxidant screening of the leaf extracts was done. The antioxidant screening of the leaf extracts was done with 1-1-diphenyl- 1-picryl-hydrazyl (DPPH).
