Catharanthus roseus is one of the most important plant as described in ayurveda. This plant is known as sadabahar is grown in every home throughout India as ornamental plant. This plant comprises a no of significant bioactive compounds to cure various critical diseases as described in ayurveda. These incurable diseases have necessitated its continued exploration and consumption. The presence of bioactive compounds also has antimicrobial activity. Therefore, this study is carried out to evaluate the antimicrobial property and phytochemical components of Catharanthus roseus plant’s leaf extract. Moreover about the study phytochemical screening of different extracts namely methanol extracts of C.roseus plant’s leaves was done. Antimicrobial activity of Methanols extract against Salmonella, Staphyloccus aureus and E.coli was carried out. The 100 µg/µl methanolic extract showed good activity against Salmonella and Staphylococcus aureus comparing to E.coli organisms.
Keywords: Antimicrobial activity, Phytochemicals, Salmonella, Staphylococcus aureus
