Analysis of the Antibacterial and Antifungal Activity of Methanolic Seed Extract of Lepidium Sativum

At a concentration of 200 mg/ml the methanol seed extract of L. sativum showed effects against tested bacteria. When tested against the diver's Staph. aureus bacterial strain, L. sativum methanol seed extract produced a 26 mm inhibition zone using a 1 ml solution but no inhibition zone formed when testing E. coli with E. faecelis because of the 0.12 ml extract solution. The research demonstrated that various seed extracts obtained from solvents produced distinct reactions toward gram-positive and gram-negative bacterial strains. A variation in antifungal potential against Aspergillus niger was observed along with extract quantity differences in both antioxidant strength and extract form during testing. A concentration of 1 mg provided the methanol extract of L. sativum seeds with its strongest anti-oxidation effect which produced 91.419 percent effectiveness while the lowest effect was noted at 0.12 resulting in 81.308. The content of active substance in solution steadily lowered while extract concentration decreased. The seed extract exhibited function as an antioxidant. The research evaluates the anti-oxidative effects and antibacterial properties exhibited by elements of the Gc seed.
