Abstract

In this study, the antimicrobial activities of Aurintricarboxylic acid (ATA) and copper-aurintricarboxilylic acid complex (Cu-ATA) were evaluated against four bacterial species, both Gram-positive and negative; Enterobacter aerogenes (MTCC-111), Clostridium perfringens (MTCC-3296), Enterococcus faecalis (MTCC-5695), and Vibrio parahaemolyticus (ATCC-17802) using the Agar-well diffusion method. The results showed good antimicrobial activities for both the ligand ATA and Cu-ATA complex against Gram-positive bacteria compared to Gram-negative bacteria.
