Abstract
The effect of date extract on growth and hemolytic activity of S. pyogenes was examined. It was found that 5% DE caused 78 % growth inhibition. However, 20% DE inhibited the growth by 86%. 5% DE inhibited hemolysin and streptolysin O activities by 43% and 24% respectively,while 20% caused 95 and 91 %inhibition.
