The effects of P. curatellifolia total extract on M. smegmatis growth. The M. smegmatis mc2 155 laboratory strain at a concentration of 2 × 106 cfu/mL was treated with the total extract from concentration of 0 μg/ml to 100 μg/ml of the plant extract. The bacteria were incubated with extracts at 37 ̊ C for 20 h and cell density was determined by measuring absorbance of reduced MTT at 590 nm. The error bars on the graphs indicate the standard deviation from mean (n = 4). Dunnet’s multiple comparison test was used to compare the columns using graph pad prism 5 software. The asterisks (*) indicate statistical significant differences with the sterility control (media) * < 0.05 *** 0.0001
