<br/><br/> ABSTRACT: Syzygium  cumini  (Linn.)  extracts  (150,  300,  450  and  600  gms/300  mL)  and oxacillin were tested for the anti-microbial  activity against the  Staphylococcus aureus.  This was done using the modified agar diffusion method. Zones of inhibition were indicated by a clear ring or halo around the punched hole.  The extracts proved to be less effective than oxacillin against the Staphylococcus aureus.  Zone enlargement is directly proportional to increasing concentration.
