The aim of this study is therefore, to investigate the antibacterial and wound healingactivities of 80% methanol extract of Hibiscus micranthus leaves using disc diffusion methods and rat excisionmodel respectively.Methods: In vitro antibacterial screening was carried out against S. aureus, S.pneumoniae, S. pyogenes, E. coli, P.aeruginosa, K. pneumoniae and P. mirabilis bacterial strains using disc-well diffusion assay. Would healing activity wasdone in rats divided into four groups each consisting of six animals. Group I was served as a negative control(ointment base), Group II served as a positive control Nitrofurazone (NFZ 0.2% ointment), Groups III and IV wastreated 5 and 10% extracts respectively.
