Abstract

Ginger (Zingiber officinale) extracts were tested for their antibacterial effectiveness in Thi-Qar province against harmful microorganisms including Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. To prepare the plant materials for extraction with 95% ethanol, they were collected, cleaned, dried, and ground. The bactericidal activity of ginger extracts was tested using the agar well diffusion technique at concentrations of 25%, 50%, 70%, and 100% w/v. Independent sample t-tests and one-way analysis of variance were part of the statistical analysis. Strong antibacterial activity was shown at all concentrations (p < 0.05) in the data, with the highest effectiveness shown against both bacterial strains at 100% concentration. When it came to P. aeruginosa, ginger was more effective than E. coli. These results support the use of ginger in alternative treatments for bacterial diseases by highlighting its potential as a natural antibacterial agent Highlights: Ginger extracts show antibacterial effectiveness against E. coli and P. aeruginosa. Highest activity observed at 100% concentration using agar well diffusion technique. Highlights ginger's potential as a natural antibacterial alternative for bacterial diseases. Keywords: Walnut husks, iron removal, biosorption, Langmuir isotherm, thermodynamic study
