<title>PHYTOCHEMICAL SCREENING AND ANTIBACTERIAL EFFICACY OF ALLIUM PORRUM EXTRACTS </title>
<abstract>Phytochemical constituents of  lessThan i greaterThan Allium porrum lessThan /i greaterThan  leaf extracts and its antibacterial potentialities were evaluated using different solvents. Phytochemical screening of the different extracts showed that leaves contains important compounds such as amino acid with sulphate, carbohydrates, Phenols, Proteins, flavonoids, alkaloids, steroids, Tannins and saponin. Aqueous, methanol and acetone extracts of plant leaves were used for assessing antibacterial activity against  lessThan i greaterThan Salmonella typhi, Klebsiella pneumonia, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa lessThan /i greaterThan  and lessThan i greaterThan  Proteus vulgaris lessThan /i greaterThan  by agar well diffusion method. The present study demonstrated that the aqueous, methanolic, acetone extracts of  lessThan i greaterThan A. porrum lessThan /i greaterThan  consists different phytochemical components thus exhibit variations in the antibacterial activity. These promissory extracts open the prospect of finding new clinically effective antibacterial compounds.</abstract>
