In traditional medicine it is used as an astringent to cure or relieve intestinal disorders after pain at childbirth, sprains, bruises and swelling or as a lotion for eye troubles, muscular pains and sores. It is also used for gargles and tooth powders. Medcinally; it has proven to possess various pharmacological activities. The powdered root part of Peltophorum pterocarpum (250gr) were extracted exhaustively using different solvents and phytochemical investigations has shown the presence of various secondary metabolites like alkaloids, flavanoids, tannins, saponins, proteins, glycosides, steriods, and volatile. <p class="card-text"><strong>Keywords:</strong> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=antibacterialactivity" title="antibacterialactivity">antibacterialactivity</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=fabaceae" title=" fabaceae"> fabaceae</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=peltophorum%20pterocarpum" title=" peltophorum pterocarpum"> peltophorum pterocarpum</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=isocoumari" title=" isocoumari"> isocoumari</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=alkaloids" title=" alkaloids"> alkaloids</a> </p> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/13914/phytochemical-screening-of-roots-of-peltophorum-pterocarpum" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">Procedia</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/13914.pdf" target="_blank" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">PDF</a> <span class="bg-info text-light px-1 py-1 float-right rounded"> Downloads <span class="badge badge-light">350</span> </span> </div> </div> <div class="card paper-listing mb-3 mt-3"> <h5 class="card-header" style="font-size:.9rem"><span class="badge badge-info">1</span> Inhibition of Escherichia coli and Salmonella spp. By Traditional Phytomedicines That Are Commonly Used to Treat Gastroenteritis in Zimbabwe</h5> <div class="card-body"> <p class="card-text"><strong>Authors:</strong> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Constance%20Chivengwa">Constance Chivengwa</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Tinashe%20Mandimutsira"> Tinashe Mandimutsira</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Jephris%20Gere"> Jephris Gere</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Charles%20Magogo"> Charles Magogo</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Irene%20Chikanza"> Irene Chikanza</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Jerneja%20Vidmar"> Jerneja Vidmar</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/abstracts/search?q=Walter%20Chingwaru"> Walter Chingwaru</a> </p> <p class="card-text"><strong>Abstract:</strong></p> The use of traditional methods in the management of diarrhoea has remained a common practice among the indigenous African tribes of Southern Africa. Despite the widespread use of traditional medicines in Zimbabwe, very little research validating the activities of phytomedicines against diarrhoea, as claimed by the Shona people of Zimbabwe, has been reported. This study sought to determine the efficacies of the plants that are frequently used to treat stomach complaints, namely Dicoma anomala, Cassia abbreviata, Lannea edulis and Peltophorum africanum against Escherichia coli (an indicator of faecal contamination of water, and whose strains such as EHEC (O157), ETEC and EPEC, are responsible for a number of outbreaks of diarrhoea) and Salmonella spp. Ethanol and aqueous extracts from these plants were obtained, evaporated, dried and stored. The dried extracts were reconstituted and diluted 10-fold in nutrient broth (from 100 to 0.1 microgram/mL) and tested for inhibition against the bacteria. L. edulis exhibited the best antimicrobial effect (minimum inhibition concentration = 10 microgram/mL for both extracts and microorganisms). Runners up to L. edulis were C. abbreviata (20 microgram/mL for both microorganisms) and P. africanum (20 and 30 microgram/mL respectively). Interestingly, D. anomala, which is widely considered panacea in African medicinal practices, showed low antimicrobial activity (60 and 100 microgram/mL respectively). The high antimicrobial activity of L. edulis can be explained by its content of flavonoids, tannins, alkylphenols (cardonol 7 and cardonol 13) and dihydroalkylhexenones. The antimicrobial activities of C. abbreviata can be linked to its content of anthraquinones and triterpenoids. P. africanum is known to contain benzenoids, flavanols, flavonols, terpenes, xanthone and coumarins. This study therefore demonstrated that, among the plants that are used against diarrhoea in African traditional medicine, L. edulis is a clear winner against E. coli and Salmonella spp. Activity guided extraction is encouraged to establish the complement of compounds that have antimicrobial activities. <p class="card-text"><strong>Keywords:</strong> <a
