RESUMO
The present study was undertaken to find out the antibacterial and antifungal effects of crude organic extracts obtained from root of Croton sparciflorus. The crude organic extract was prepared from shade dried root of Croton sparciflorus by using petroleum ether, chloroform, ethyl acetate and alcohol 90%. The antibacterial and antifungal activities were tested on selected gram positive and gram negative bacteria and fungi. The chloroform, petroleum ether, ethyl acetate and alcohol extracts showed activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa while chloroform extract showed activity against Bacillus subtilis and Escherichia coli. These extracts did not show any inhibitory activity against Candida albicans

Aegle marmelos suspension was prepared by using the leaf powder of Aegle marmelos. Before making the formulation, the leafy drug was authentified by suitable methods like physical, microscopical and chemical methods to confirm the standards. Thus subjected Aegle marmelos leaf powder was formulated as suspension with the help of suitable suspending agent and vehicle, and it was pharmacologically evaluated for anti-diabetic action. The prepared suspension significantly reduces blood glucose level in alloxan induced diabetes in rabbits
