TT - اثرات ضد باکتریایی عصاره الکلی ختمی، مرزه بختیاری و چویر N2 - BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE The use of drugs to treat diseases led to the emergence of resistant strains of bacteria. Bacterial resistance to antibiotics is the most common problems in medical science. In this study, the antibacterial effect of ethanolic extract of Alcea digitata L., Satureja bachtiarica L. and Ferulago Angulata L on four pathogenic bacteria, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus agalactiae was investigated.METHODS: In this experimental study, the extracts have been prepared from Alcea digitata L., Satureja bachtiarica L. and Ferulago Angulata L. Their antibacterial activity at different concentrations (800, 400, 200, 100 mg/ml) was determined by disk-diffusion agar method and the dilution method. The antibiotics tetracycline and gentamicin as a positive control and DMSO was used as negative control and the MIC and MBC were determined.FINDINGS: Based on the results of this study, three plant extracts dose-dependently increased the bacteria inhibition zone especially in the gram-positive bacteria compared to the gram- negative bacteria (p SP - 31 EP - 37 AU - Zareii, B AU - Seyfi, T AU - Movahedi, R AU - Cheraghi, J AU - Ebrahimi, S AD - KW - Alcea digitata KW - Satureja bachtiarica KW - Ferulago Angulata L KW - Minimal inhibitory concentration KW - Antibacterial effect.
