Susceptibility of multi-drug resistant staphylococcus aureus to combined extracts of uvaria chamae, holarrhena floribunda and senna occidentalis
Multi-Drug Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a serious clinical problem because of its ability to acquire resistance to most antibiotics which consequently reduce treatment successes. In the present study, efficacy of combined leaf extracts of U. chamae, H. floribunda and S. occidentalis against five multi-drug resistant Staphylococcus aureus isolated from wound swabs was evaluated. The antibiogram was determined by Kirby Bauer technique while in vitro antibacterial efficacy of the plant extracts evaluated using agar well diffusion.
