Abstract: To research on the in vitro growth inhibition effect of Cumin’s extracts on bacteria. Methods: K-B paper dispersion method was used and the inhibition effects of circular filter paper pieces of Cumin’s extracts on 8 tested strains were observed. It had different effects of growth inhibition on bacteria. Most of the MICs of cumin oil were among 2%~1% according to 8 tested strains. Most of the MIC of ethanol extracts were assayed as 100mg/ml according to 8 tested strains.

Key words:  , Cuminum cyminum L.; cumin oil; antibacterial activities; MIC(minimum inhibition concentration);
