Апстракт
The antimicrobial activity of extracts of aerial parts of Drosera peltata Smith against oral bacteria was investigated using agar diffusion and dilution micromethods. The chloroformic extract, active against all the bacteria tested, showed the most significant antimicrobial properties. Plumbagin, isolated from the extract, is the active principle. Results obtained suggest that Drosera peltata extract could be used in the treatment of oral infectious diseases like dental caries and periodontitis.
