According to observation and survey of populations, the poultice of the bark of Sclerocarya birrea is used in traditional use as an antivenom and the decoction of the leaves against diarrhea. Several extracts were obtained after maceration by increasing polarity of leaf and bark powders in n-hexane, ethyl acetate, dichloromethane and 80° ethanol. Phytochemical screening of the obtained extracts shows that the leaves contain alkaloids, flavonoids, coumarins and tannins. There are no alkaloids in the bark. The antibiogram test on eight bacterial strains of these extracts revealed that only Streptococus. pneumoniae is sensitive to two bark extracts containing ethyl acetate and hydroethanolic. It has also been proven that these two extracts have a DPPH° radical reducing power whose IC 50 is equal to (0.585±0.004) mg/L and (1.733±0.004) mg/L respectively.

Prevalence of bacterial multidrug resistance is a multifactorial problem raising healthcare threats globally rendering commercial antibiotic ineffective. Medicinal plants act as unexplored resources for the development of potent drugs. Phyllanthus niruri is reported to exhibit diverse biological properties including antimicrobial, antifungal, anticancer properties. Possible binding affinity of targeted bioactive phytochemicals (Lintetralin and Mupirocin) from methanolic leaf extract of Phyllanthus niruri against the resistance genes in Proteus mirabilis was predicted through in-silico analysis. This study suggested that lintetralin showed lowest minimum docking score (-3.830 Kcal/mol) against atfE protein, -3.248 Kcal/mol against lpxA protein and -3.103 Kcal/mol against mrpH protein from Proteus mirabilis . Similarly, mupirocin showed lowest minimum docking score of –7.552 Kcal/mol with atfE protein, - 6.976 Kcal/mol with lpxA protein and -6.851 Kcal/mol with mrpH protein from Proteus mirabilis. The study revealed that lintetralin and mupirocin are potent antimicrobials, which can be used as potential alternative to antibiotics to combat MDR.
