The antimicrobial potential of eight tea extracts was screened against eight bacteria E. coli, S. aureus, P. vulgaris, Pseudomonas, Corynebacterium, Streptococci, Bacillus and Klebsiella sp using well diffusion assay. The tea extracts of Lipton showed significant activity against Pseudomonas sp (20mm). Extract of Tetly exhibit highest activity against P. vulgaris (17mm) and Organic tulsi showed highest activity against Klebsiella (25mm).
