Abstract
The ethanolic leaf extract of Ficus exasperate was screened for antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus albus. The satisfactory MIC of the plant extract against E. coli is 300 mg/ml while that of S. albus is 700 mg/ml. The study also revealed that the combination of the crude plant extract and the protein synthesis inhibitors had the highest inhibitory activity.
