Abstract: The antibacterial effects of sanguinarine hydrochloride, bocconoline and berberine hydrochloride from Macleaya cordata were studied. With the five species of bacterium, the antibacterial effects were tested for the minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) and the antibacterial effects (the diameter of the antibacterial circle) of the three materials from Macleaya cordata. The results showed that the three materials had antibacterial effect on the tested five bacterium, but sanguinarine hydrochloride had far more strong and extensive antibacterial effect.

Key words: sanguinarine hydrochloride, bocconoline, berberine hydrochloride, Penicillin, antibacterial effect
