Abstract

This study includes the detection of the anti microbial activity of both the plant extract of Suaeda
baccata (Chenopodiaceae) and its constituent the trigonelline alkaloid, against several microorganisms
(Staphylococcus aureus to represent one member of Gram positive bacteria, Escherichia
coli to represent one member of Gram negative bacteria and Candida albicans to represent one
member of fungi) in that trigonelline alkaloid and the plant extract, showed an antibacterial activity
against the growth of gram positive bacteria, Staphylococcus aureus, while gram negative bacteria,
Escherichia coli and the yeast, Candida albicans were resistant to both.
