ABSTRACT

 

Kazemipour N, Nikbin M, Valizadeh J, Ghaderi F., Sepehrimanesh M., Antimicrobial  and chemical properties of Calotropis procera extracts, Onl J Vet Res., 18(11): 869-874  2014. Disc-diffusion tests using ethanol, chloroform and water extracted flowers and leaves of C. procera against Enterococcus faecalis, Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Bacillus pumilus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumonia and Salmonella typhi are described. Gas chromatography/mass spectroscopy (GC/MS) analysis was used to analyze essential leaf oil of C. procera. C Procera leaf extract contained Phytol (38.2 %), Caryophyllene oxide (26.9 %) and 1,5,5,8-Tetramethyl-12-oxabicyclo[9.1.0]dodeca-3,7-diene (12.278 %), n-Hexadecanoic acid (4.224 %) and Pentadecanal (2.112 %).  C. Procera had greatest activity against Klebsiella pneumonia and Staphylococcus epidermidis and least activity against Bacillus pumilus and Bacillus subtilis

 

Key words: Calotropis procera, Antimicrobial activity, Essential oil, Klebsiella pneumonia.
