Formulation And Evaluation Of The Antimicrobial Acticity By Hydro- Alcoholic Extract Of Aerial Parts Of Galinsoga Quadriradiata Gel

The goal of the current study was to employ the hydroalcoholic extract of the aerial portions of Galinsoga quadriradiata to make a topical gel utilizing aloe vera as a gel foundation.Aloe vera and carbopol 940, gel-forming polymers, were utilized in three different amounts to make the gel, while sodium benzoate and potassium sorbate were utilized as preservatives.The generated formulations underwent physical characterization and in vitro antibacterial activity tests.The gel's pH was between 6.2 and 7.2.There was a noticeable zone of inhibition in the antibacterial activity as compared to the control.Thus, it is concluded that the hydroalcoholic extract of aerial parts of Galinsoga quadriradiata shows enhanced antibacterial activity when made into a gel using aqueous Aloe vera as a gel foundation.
