Abstract
Root extracts of Cansjera rheedii in different solvents were tested and studied for their antimicrobial and anthelmintic activities. The petroleum ether and n-butanol extracts showed high inhibitory activity against Bacillus subtilis. The ethanolic extract of cansjera root showed good anthelminitic activity. Antimicrobial and anthelmintic activities of the extract were compared with that of the standard drugs - ciprofloxacin, griseofulvin and albendazole.
