  • Abstract:
  • An antimicrobial is an agent that kills  microorganisms  or inhibits their growth. Antimicrobial medicines can be grouped according to the microorganisms they act primarily against. For example, antibacterials are used against bacteria and antifungals are used against fungi. They can also be classified according to their function. Agents that kill microbes are called microbicidal, while those that merely inhibit their growth are called microbiostatic. The main classes of antimicrobial agents are disinfectants , which kill a wide range of microbes on non-living surfaces to prevent the spread of illness, antiseptics   (which are applied to living tissue and help reduce infection during surgery), and antibiotics (which destroy microorganisms within the body). Antibacterial agents can be further subdivided into bactericidal agents, which kill bacteria, and bacteriostatic agents, which slow down or stall bacterial growth. In this paper we have preferred neem leaves against E. Coli and Bacillus subltilis and turmeric against Aspergillus niger.
