The biggest inhibition zone recorded for 1000 pg/ml alcoholicextracts was (35 mm) against Staph. epidermidis.The limits of minimal inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of bothextracts are between (400-1300) pglml.The efficiency of antibacterialactivity of T. vulgaris extracts were compared with efficiency ofstandard antibiotics against the same bacterial types.
