Abstract
Ayurveda is a systematic medicinal system from India that comprehensively considers all aspects of health, including physical, mental, and social components. This study focuses on the antibacterial and antifungal attributes of Chandanadi herbal decoction. Employing the agar well diffusion method, the research gauges its effectiveness against gram-negative (Escherichia coli) and gram-positive bacteria (Enterococcus faecalis, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus mutans) while utilizing Streptomycin and Clotrimazole as standard antibacterial and antifungal controls, respectively. The outcomes reveal diverse antibacterial responses, contingent on concentration, showcasing significant inhibition at elevated concentrations. In contrast, antifungal efficacy against Aspergillus niger and Candida albicans is comparatively restricted in comparison to Clotrimazole. The non-existence of inhibition zones across different concentrations implies diminished antifungal effectiveness. These discoveries improve our comprehension of Chandanadi herbal decoction's potential applications in addressing microbial challenges, highlighting the key role of concentration variations in future investigations.
