Abstract

The present work discusses the development of cotton and cotton gauze-based bandage
using mahogany. The biological properties of mahogany bark extract have been
identified. The 25% concentration of mahogany extract have been treated directly and
kept at room temperature for conditioning. Further the antibacterial activity of
mahogany-treated samples have been evaluated against wound infecting pathogens
(AATCC- 147) Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella
pneumoniae, Serratia marcescens and Staphylococcus aureus. It was found that
mahogany has good antibacterial property against wound infecting pathogens.
