Figure Lengend Snippet: Antibacterial activity of different aquatic plant extracts against different pathogenic bacteria expressed as MIC, which is the lowest concentration of the assayed agent that inhibits microbial growth. [( A ) Bacteroides fragilis , ( B ) Helicobacter pylori , ( C ) Fusobacterium nucleatum , ( D ) Porphyromonas gingivalis , ( E ) Salmonella enterica , ( F ) Neisseria gonorrhoeae ]. Plant crude extracts with MIC lower than 8 µg/mL are outstanding antibacterial agents . Column value is the mean of five replicates. The error bars represent standard deviation. Columns followed by different letters are significantly different according to ANOVA test.
