Abstract

Bacterial resistance to antibiotics and their infiltration into cells are the main causes of antibiotic failure or difficulties. Since the second step would be used as a successful substitute therapy for getting rid of the multi-resistant bacteria, the initial step in our study rationale was intended as the aqueous peel of pomegranate extract. Effect of a clinical isolate made from pomegranate peel from Cairo's Al-Azhar University's El-Zahraa hospital college of Medicine (Girls). The antibacterial efficacy of pomegranate peel extractions against Klebsiella pneumonia and E. coli sample was examined using the well-diffusion method. Results: Two pathogenic bacteria were resistant to pomegranate peel extracts made with various solvents (D H2O, Fresh pp, ethanolic & methanolic). The powdered extract of pomegranate peel possesses potent antibacterial properties against E. coli and Klebsiella pneumonia.
