Antibacterial Activity Against E. coli and S. aureus with GNN-Aided Antibiotic Discovery and Resistance Prediction .
Date-Line : 10th October - 20th December
Description : Following the initial screening of the antibacterial activity of crude extracts of the leaves of Ixora coccinea, Dracaena fragrans, and Duranta repens (Pet. ether, CHCL3, and CH3OH), the result showed that a few medicinal bio-compounds with antibacterial activities were promising. However, the phyto- chemicals responsible for these crude extracts' bacterial inhibitory zone are not specifically identified. The prospective compound for the creation of a novel antibiotic medication must be identified using computational approaches.
