Abstract

An evergreen, glabrous tree native to Asia's tropical and subtropical climates is called Syzigium cumini (Family: Myrtaceae). Plants are abundant in bioactive substances, such as (anthocyanin, quercetin, glycoside, kaempferol, antimellin and myrecetin). By employing the agar well diffusion method, the high antibacterial activity of leaves against several bacteria that cause diarrhoea will be assessed in this study. Since diarrhoea is one of the leading causes of mortality and morbidity in children under the age of five, it has been spreading at an alarming rate around the world. S. cumini leaf extract had effective potential against B. subtilis, Salmonella typhi, Salmonella typhi, E. coli, and S. aureus. Along with multi-resistant antibiotics including, Amoxilin, Azithromycin, Erythromycin, and Tetracycline, it also demonstrated a synergistic impact. As a result, it will be used as an antibacterial and anti-diarrheal component in numerous pharmaceutical and health goods.
