Abstract :
Annona squamosa (L) is a multipurpose tree with edible fruits & is a source of the medicinal & industrial products. It is used as an antioxidant, antidiabetics, hepatoprotective, cytotoxic, genetoxic, anti-tumor, anti-lice agent etc.Annona squamosa (L) belongs to the family Annonaceae commonly known as custard apple. Antimicrobial activity of combined methanolic leaf & seed extract of A.squamosa were evaluated against four bacteria: Bacillus subtilis, Styphaloccocus aureus (gram positive) & E.coli, Pseudomonas aerogenosa by using cup & plate method. Maximum inhibition was found with 20mg/ml concentration of combined extract as compare to separate leaf & seed extract against all the tested organism under investigation. The study suggest that maximum antibacterial activity was observed against gram negative organism i.e., E.coli & P.aerogenosa.

Keywords :
Annona squamosa L, antimicrobial activity, cup & plate method.
