Abstract
Antibacterial activity of methanol and ethyl acetate extracts of two Phellinusspecies were studied. The activity was evaluated by well assay method and microtiter plate dilution method using sixteen strains of Acinetobacter baumanniiBouvet and Grimont. The ethyl acetate extract of Phellinus swieteniae (Murr.) Herrera and Bondart. showed activity against all strains of Acinetobacter. The minimum inhibitory concentration of ethyl acetate extract of Phellinus merrillii (Murr.) Ryv. was found to be in the range 0.71 - 1.42 mg/ml. The MIC value of methanol extract of both species was found to be much higher. Key words: Antibacterial activity, Phellinus, Acinetobacter, medicinal mushrooms
