Abstract

Volatile oils are one of the groups of secondary metabolites produced by some plants. Their probable users against burn microbes have received little attention. Burn swabs obtained from ten burned patients at Government hospital, led to the isolation of bacteria using standard methods, the microorganisms were isolated. Then chloroform, methanol and aqueous extract of volatile of Ixora Cocciniea against S.aureus, E.coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, P.vulgaris and K.pnemoniae exhibited antibacterial were found efficacious respectively.
