Inhibition Effect of Pomegranate Peel Extract and Orange Peel Extract on E.Coli Bacteria Growth from Chees

Abstract

The fruits of different plant species (pomegranates and oranges) were collected from the local markets of the city of Nasiriyah and dried their crusts and attended alcoholic and aquatic extracts of these fruits and studied the effectiveness of inhibition in the growth of E.coli bacteria. A moral difference (P≤0.05) was observed between the effect of the alcoholic and watery extract of pomegranate peels compared to the effect of the alcoholic and watery extract of orange peels as well as the inhibitory effect of antibiotics. The effect of the pomegranate peel alcohol extract on E.coli bacteria was found to be more effective in inhibition if the high inhibitory concentration (30mm) followed by the hydropode extract of pomegranate peels if the inhibitory concentration (25 mm) the inhibitory concentration extracted was orange peel (18 mm) and the water extract For orange peels it was (9 mm) and if compared with the antibiotics used where it was observed that the highest efficacy of antibiotics (Gentamycin) where the diameter of inhibition (18 mm) and the least inhibition was for the antibiotic (Trimethoprim) where the diameter of inhibition (7 mm)was approximate.
