The antimicrobial activity of unsterilized and sterilized ethanolic extract of Coleus aromatic was evaluated by deploying disc diffusion, Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC), Minimum Bactericidal Concentration (MBC) and time kill studies on Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumonia, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Proteus mirabilis. Zone of inhibition was 17.50 to 27.00 mm for unsterilized extract, 11.00 to 20.00 mm for heat sterilized extract, 6.00 to 12.00 mm for filter sterilized extract, 18.00 to 21.00 mm for ampicillin, 19.50 to 24.00 mm for chloramphenicol and 11.50 to 19.00 mm for streptomycin. MIC is 1.02 to 2.60 mg/ml for unsterilized extract, 2.60 to 5.21 mg/ml for heat sterilized 8.33 to 18.75mg/ml for filter sterilized extract and 0.02 mg/ml for chloramphenicol. MBC ranged from 2.60 to 8.33 mg/ml for unsterilized extract and from 0.03 to 0.04 mg/ml for chloramphenicol. Higher values were noted with heat (4.17 to 20.83 mg/ml).
