O extrato metanólico de Caryophyllus aromaticus foi o mais eficaz para todas as bactérias testadas e apresentou a melhor atividade anti-S. aureus. The present study aimed at evaluating the in vitro antimicrobial activity of methanolic extracts of some medicinal plants against Escherichia coli, Salmonella Typhimurium, Staphylococcus aureus and Enterococcus sp. The methanolic extract of Caryophyllus aromaticus presented the highest anti-S. aureus activity and was effective against all bacterial strains tested.
