			<p>The present study was carried out to evaluate the antibacterial and antifungal
activities of the aqueous and ethanolic extracts of Abutilon indicum against
bacterial and fungal species. Antibacterial and antifungal activities were assessed
by disc diffusion method. Among the two extracts, ethanolic extracts exhibited
potent antibacterial and antifungal against all the selected bacterial and fungal
species. The results were compared with standard antibiotic drugs chloramphenicol
for bacteria and fluconazole for fungi. The extracts exhibited the growth inhibitory
activity in a dose dependent manner.</p>
