All the bacteria were isolated from clinical sample and identified with the culture morphology and biochemical test. The antibiotic sensitive pattern was carried out by disc diffusion method and the antimicrobial property of 5 plants were screened by agar diffusion method by agar well diffusion method.
All the 5 plants of different family showing different antimicrobial activity. Antimicrobial activity of 5 plants against MDR bacteria is showing different results.
All the 5 plants showed good antimicrobial activity which can be used as drug after isolation of pure phytocompounds and their toxicity test.
