In vitro antibacterial efficacy of selected plants was assessed by well diffusion method against Salmonella typhi, Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The results showed that benzene and ethyl acetate extract of black cumin seed powder were most effective against the Salmonella typhi, while the ethyl acetate extracts of black cumin seed powder was most effective against the Staphylococcus aureus, whereas benzene extract of black cumin seed powder and the all three extracts of both the herbs remained ineffective against Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruoginosa, respectively.
