Phytochemical Analysis And Antimicrobial Properties Of Crude Extracts Of Vernonia Amygdalina Del. On Microbial Isolates Implicated In Tomato Paste Spoilage
ABSTRACT
It has been noted that, despite the
use of plant extracts in ethno-medicine, African cuisines and recently in plant
protection, that their phytochemical composition and active ingredients have
not been fully documented (Okwu and Njoku, 2009). Corroborative studies
estimated that only 4 -10% of the 250,000 plant species constricting word boon mined decimally for antimicrobial activity
(Pallant, 2010). A huge potential therefore exists in this regard especially in
the tropical areas like Nigeria; with vast untapped rainforest, for these
fungi-toxic plant species to be extensively examined chemically. Scientific
analysis of plants it has been observed Follows a logical pathway beginning
with a lead from the natives. Hence, Cowan (1999) reported further that initial
aqueous and alcoholic screening of plants extracts for antimicrobial activities
are followed by other organic extraction methods for determination of their
phytochemical corn-positions.
