| Abstract | ||
| The antidiarrhoeal activities of leaf extracts of Ocimum basilicum L. is investigated by disc diffusion and tube dilution methods. The extracts were active against, Escherichia coli , Salmonella typhi, Enterococcus faecalis and Shigella dysenteriae. The leaf extract was more active against S. dysenteriae and least active against S. typhi. The sensitivity of the organisms measured in terms of zone of inhibition ranged from 8 to 19.5 mm. The minimum inhibitory concentrations were from 8 to 50 mg ml-1 , while the minimum bactericidal concentration ranged from 16 to 62 mg ml-1. | ||
