A Systematic Review of Medicinal Plants of Kenya used in the Management of Bacterial Infections
- 2022
Medicine, Environmental Science
Traditional medicine is seemingly an acceptable and efficient system among Kenyan communities in the management of bacterial infections and Kenya's rich biodiversity with diverse secondary metabolites presents a promising source of new therapeutic alternatives with possibly different mechanisms of action against bacteria.

Medicine, Environmental Science
Phytochemical analysis showed the presence of phenols, tannins, saponins, anthraquinones, anthocyanins, triterpenoids, flavonoids and alkaloids in both plant extracts which suggest that the aqueous extracts of H. madagascariensis and E. prostrata contain antibacterial principles which may be non toxic.
