Overview

This analysis reveals antibacterial activity of Senna alata extracts against Staphylococcus aureus, suggesting potential pharmaceutical applications.

Key Points

  • Antibacterial activity yielded a mean zone of inhibition of 15.18mm for ethanol extracts against Staphylococcus aureus.
  • The presence of alkaloids, flavonoids, and other bioactive compounds was confirmed in Senna alata leaves.
  • Testing involved a Completely Randomized Design to assess various ethanol and aqueous extract concentrations.
  • Findings suggest Senna alata may serve as a natural antibacterial agent in pharmaceuticals.
