Master’s thesis on the inhibitory effect of fennel and hibiscus extracts against pathogenic bacteria

– As part of جــامــــــعـــــة ســــــــبـــهــــــــا’s commitment to support scientific research that aims to find effective natural alternatives in the medical and biomedical field, the The College of Science – Department of Botany, a public defense of a master’s thesis submitted in fulfillment of the requirements for obtaining a postgraduate degree (master’s degree) on Thursday morning, 3004-2026 AD, at exactly ten o’clock.

– The thesis was submitted by a student: (Huda Mohammed Ibrahim Khalifa) and was titled:
“Study of the inhibitory effect of the alcoholic extract of fennel and bread plant and their active ingredients on some pathogenic bacteria, and the synergy between these ingredients and antibiotics”.

(Study of the Inhibitory Effect of Alcoholic Extracts of Foeniculum Vulgare and Malva Sylvestris and their Active Components on Some Pathogenic Bacteria, and the Synergistic Interaction Between These Compounds and Antibiotics).

– The study aimed to explore the antimicrobial properties of the alcoholic extracts of fennel and baker’s yeast and identify the active chemical components responsible for this effect. Through this research work, the researcher sought to study the “Synergistic Interaction” between these natural extracts and conventional antibiotics, to show how they can enhance the effectiveness of treatment and reduce bacterial drug resistance.

– The researcher used a rigorous laboratory approach to extract the compounds and test their sensitivity against certain types of pathogenic bacteria. The results showed a promising ability of the active plant components to inhibit microbial growth, opening new horizons for integrating natural extracts into modern therapeutic protocols.

– The scientific discussion committee consisted of:
●A.Dr. Abdul Qader Al-Senussi Qasim Al-Zein – Supervisor and Rapporteur (Tripoli University).
●Dr. Dr. Abdulghani Mohammed Abubakr – Internal Discussant (Sebha University).
●A Dr. Abdullah Mohammed Abdullah – External Discussant (Wadi Al-Shati University).

– At the conclusion of the discussion, the committee praised the scientific rigor of the thesis and the methodological effort exerted in linking botany and microbiology, and recommended granting the student a Master of Science degree, wishing her continued success in her scientific career.
