The aim of the present investigation was to evaluate the antibacterial property and phytochemical analysis of Mollugo nudicaulis. Different organic solvent extracts such as Hexane, Methanol Acetone, Ethanol and Petroleum ether of this plant were evaluated for its antibacterial activity using standardized procedure and methodologies. Both gram positive and gram negative organisms were screened.The results showed that, the different organic solvent extracts of varying concentrations (25µl, 50 µl, 75 µl and 100µl/disc) showed concentration dependent activity. All the organisms exhibited inhibitory activity in the higher concentration of the extracts tested. Phytochemical analysis was performed to detect the presence of secondary metabolites present in the plant extracts which may be responsible for inhibitory activity.
