Abstract

This study was designed to evaluate the effectiveness of the boiling water and ethanolic extracts of camellia sinensis with concentrations of (25,50,100,140)mg/ml and also, the synergic effect of ethanolic extract with antibiotics (AML25, IPM10, K30, S10, F300, TE30, CIP5, NA30, C10, C30, CT30, PB300)against the Salmonella typhimurium bacteria by using filter paper disc diffusion method. The results of this study showed the ineffectiveness of all concentrations of camellia sinensis against S.typhimurium, Also the results showed no interaction between the ethanolic extract and antibiotics(S10, NA30, CT30, PB300), while the effect was antagonism with the antibiotics (AML25, IPM10, K30, F300, TE30, CIP5, C10, C30). This study concluded that It is possible to employ the extractions of camellia sinensis but must to be with high concentration to treat infections related to the bacteria under study instead of antibiotics, with the minimal side effects.
