2 The Synergistic Effects of Alkanna hirsutissima Boiled Extract and some Antibiotics on some Bacterial Species in Vitro and in Vivo Prof.Dr. Adeeba Y. Shareef Lect. Nareman S. Nasir Asst. Lect. Talal T. Ali Department of Biology Minstry of Agriculture College of Science Nineveh Mosul University Abstract: The antibacterial effects of boiled aqueos extract of Alkanna hirsutissima on the bacteria, Bacillus cereus, Klebsiella pneamoniae, Proteus mirabilis and the sensitivity of these bacteria to some antibiotics (Penicillin, Amoxycillin,, Clindamycin, Ceftriaxone) were studied. The study also includes the Synergistic effects of Alkanna hirsutissima extract and antibiotics on the bacteria. The results showed that this extract possessed synergistic effects in all of these antibiotics in all the species of bacteria except Klebsiella pneumonia. The study also includes the Invivo synergistic effects of this extract and cefotaxime in the treatment of experimentally infected wounds with within 10 days compared with cefotaxime alone or boiled extract alone which was treated within 17 days. Key words: Synergistic effects, plant extract, Alkanna hirsutissima, antibiotics.
