Abstract

Antimicrobial activity of ethanolic extract of Aloe vera were observed against Staphylococcus
aureus, Staphylococcus pyogenes, Staphylococcus saprophyticus, Streptococcus pneumoniae
and Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumoniae . Aloe vera leaf gel
was used for ethanolic extraction.Zones of inhibition in millimeter was used to measure the
antimicrobial effect. Antimicrobial susceptibility test showed that ethanolic extract has growth
inhibitory effects against the tested pathogens. Ethanolic extract of Aloe vera has growth
inhibitory effects against tested pathogen seen by antimicrobial susceptibility testing.
