Growth inhibition diameters (mm) against bacterial strains recorded for MeOH *, DCM, PET extracts and EO from the aerial parts of A. moschata.
| Bacteria | MeOH | DCM | PET | EO |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| B. cereus | 8 | 15 | 10 | 24 |
| E. faecalis | - | 11 | 11 | - |
| S. aureus | 8 | 12 | 15 | 18 |
| E. coli | - | - | 13 | 11 |
| P. mirabilis | - | 10 | 15 | 13 |
| P. aeruginosa | - | 8 | 8 | 10 |
* MeOH, methanol extract; DCM, dichloromethane extract; PET, petroleum ether extract; EO, essential oil. The values represent the mean of inhibition zone diameters (including disk diameter of 6 mm). For all values the standard deviation is <1 mm.
