DESCRIPTION
Field of Invention
Antimicrobial Activity of Plant Extract Against Skin Infection Causing Bacteria" suggests a scientific study focused on evaluating the efficacy of plant-derived compounds in inhibiting or killing bacteria responsible for skin infections.
Background of the Invention
The rise of antibiotic-resistant bacteria is a global health concern, particularly in the treatment of skin infections. Traditional antibiotics are becoming less effective due to the adaptive mechanisms of bacteria, which lead to resistance. This has prompted the scientific community to seek alternative and complementary therapies to combat bacterial infections. Historically, medicinal plants have been used in various cultures for their healing properties. Many plants are known to possess natural antimicrobial compounds, such as alkaloids, flavonoids, terpenoids, and phenolic acids. These bioactive compounds can inhibit or kill a range of pathogenic microorganisms, including bacteria responsible for skin infections. This invention focuses on harnessing the antimicrobial potential of plant extracts to develop effective treatments against bacteria that cause skin infections.
