Antimicrobial activity of resins obtained from the roots and stems of Cedrus libani and Abies cilicia

Abstract

The antimicrobial activity of the ethanol extract of resins obtained from the roots and stems of Cedrus libani and Abies cilicia has been studied, using the disc diffusion method. The results obtained indicate that crude extracts of the resins of both plants are highly efficient in preventing the growth of microorganisms.
