Abstract
Introduction: Picrorhiza kurroa is a perennial herb belonging to the family plantaginaceae , acknowledged for its antibacterial, anti fungal, antioxidant activity etc . The antibacterial activity of Zinc oxide nanoparticles has acquired an enormous amount of interest recently
Aim: The aim of this study is to assess the antibacterial activity of zinc oxide nanoparticles against streptococcus mutans using Picrorhiza kurroa
Materials and methods: The antibacterial activity of zinc oxide nanoparticles against streptococcus mutans was done using minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) method . Various concentration of Picrorhiza - zinc oxide extract were tested to check the antibacterial activity of each concentration for excelling appraisal
Conclusion: To conclude that Picrorhiza kurroa possess significant antibacterial activity against streptococcus mutans
