Abstract
Several therapeutic effects such as, antibacterial, anti- inflammatory andanti-viral properties have been reported for Pergamum harmalla, and Rhuscoriaria. The aim ofthis study was to research antibacterial effects from P.harmalla roots, R.coriariafiurts, and theircombinations (1:1) water extracts on the gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria.:P.harmalla roots and R.coriaria fruits extraction was performed by clevenger method.Disc diffusion method used in this study, for assessing of Minimal Inhibitory Concentration(MIC), and measurement of zone inhibition diameter. Gram-negative and gram-positive bacterial strains in the current research such as: Morganellamorgannii, Salemonellatyphi Kelesiella aerogenes, and Staphylococcus epidermidis were used. According our result, all of the mentioned bacterial were susceptible for P.harmalla, R.coriaria, and their mixture. P.harmalla root extract had most antibacterial activities as compared with microbial treatment with R.coriaria extract, but combinationsofP.harmalla and R.coriaria indicated that highest antibacterial activity as compared with P.harmalla and R.coriariateratment. Measurment of Zone Inhibition revealed that most amount .
