Antibacterial activity in 51 extracts from 29 plant species currently used in traditional medicine in Trinidad and the neighbouring Caribbean islands was tested for by the agar dilution streak method using six bacteria: Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Salmonella tophimurium, Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis and Enterococcus faecalis. The extracts from eight of the plants tested showed significant activity against one or more micro-organisms and the most susceptible bacterium was Staphylococcus aureus. In the bioassays for toxicity towards the Aedes aegypti mosquito the most effective plant extracts were from Justicia pectoralis, Manihot utilissima and Stachytarpheta jamaicensis.
采用琼脂稀释划线法，使用六种细菌（大肠杆菌、铜绿假单胞菌、鼠伤寒沙门氏菌、金黄色葡萄球菌、表皮葡萄球菌和粪肠球菌），对特立尼达和邻近加勒比岛屿目前在传统医学中使用的29种植物的51种提取物的抗菌活性进行了测试。所测试的八种植物提取物对一种或多种微生物表现出显著活性，最易受影响的细菌是金黄色葡萄球菌。在对埃及伊蚊的毒性生物测定中，最有效的植物提取物来自胸痛爵床、木薯和牙买加假马鞭。
