Isolation Of Bacterial Pathogens From Ear, Nose And Mouth Of Domestic Rabbits With Antimicrobial Activity Of Pomegranate Peel, Melia Azedarach And, Lantana Cammra

Abstract

Aims: isolation of bacterial pathogens from ear, nose and mouth of domestic rabbits with antimicrobial activity of pomegranate peel, Melia azedarach and, lantana cammra. Methods: bacterial pathogens were isolated from ear, nose and mouth of (18)domestic rabbits by standard microbiological procedures .Antimicrobial activity of ethanolic extract for Pomegranate Peel, Melia Azedarach stem, Lantana Cammra flower and fruits were tested by agar diffusion method Results: “Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, Pseudomonas, Klebsiella, Bacillus, and E. coli” were the most prevalent isolates. The strongest inhibitory effects were the ethanol extracts of pomegranate peel and L. cammara leaves. Conclusion: from ear, nose and mouth of domestic rabbits represent a major source for pathogenic bacteria of zoonotic importance. Pomegranate peel and L. cammara leaves can be used as alternative antimicrobial agents for eradication of the “Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, Pseudomonas, Klebsiella, Bacillus, and E. coli”
