Abstract:

The antibacterial activity of extracts from Gentiana farreri Balf. f. was studied using Bnfillus licheniformis, Aeruginosus Bacillus, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pneumoniae and Escherichia coli as the test bacteria by Oxford cup. Meanwhile, the MIC of each extraction part of the ethanol extracts were determined. The results showed that the EtOAc extracts displayed the best antibacterial activity, the n-BuOH extracts had the lower activity, and the petroleum ether extracts had the lowest activity. The antibacterial activity enhanced along with the increase of sample concentration.
