Antimicrobial activity of the crude extract of A. adstringens.

Pathogens	Reference	MIC(mg/mL)	MBC/MFC(mg/mL)
Streptococcus mutans	ATCC 700610	0.125	0.31^a
Porphyromonas gingivalis	ATCC 33277	37	37^c
Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans	ATCC 43718	63	63^c
Candida albicans	CBS-562	0.4
Candida dubliniensis	CBS-7987	0.4
Escherichia coli	ATCC 43895	37	37^c
Escherichia coli H7	ATCC 0157:H7	63	63^c
Chlorhexidine	SIGMA	0.04	2.4
Fluconazole	SIGMA	0.06	1.2

The results represent the means ± SD from three independent experiments. Different letter represents statistically significant differences among pathogens groups as determined by one-way ANOVA and Duncan test. Chlorhexidine and Fluconazole are controls.
MIC: minimum inhibitory concentration.
MBC: minimum bactericidal concentration.
MFC: minimum fungicidal concentration.
