Abstract :
The present study eludicates and aimed at the antibacterial activity of hydro alcoholic extract of the sea urchin, Temnopleurus alexandri (Bell, 1884). Sea urchins were collected from Chennai coast , Tamil Nadu, India and identified at ZSI, Chennai. Hydro alcoholic extract was prepared by cold percolation method and its antibacterial activity was tested with different concentrations (20, 200, 2000 and 5000 ppm) with 7 bacterial strains i.e., Bacillus subtilis, Enterococcus faecalis, Pseudomonas aureus, Escheria coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Proteus vulgaris and Pseudomonas aeroginosa. GC-MS analysis was done to identify and quantify the composition of the crude extract. Minimal inhibitory concentrations were also found.
