ABSTRACT

Hospital effluents represent an important source for the release of Antibiotics into the environment. In present day increased concentration of Antibiotics in natural resources like soil, water has become major concern. Antibiotics are the one of the most important medicines used in hospitals and large amount of Antibiotics is released through hospital waste water due to excretion of used antibiotic and disposal of unused compounds. It leads to development of Multi Drug Resistance (MDR) in infants and resistant strains of bacteria which is emerging as serious health issue. Little is known about Bio-Degradation of Antibiotics in aquatic media and is important step in reducing concentration of Antibiotics. In this context primary study was conducted by selected Herbal and Mineral drugs of Ayurveda against Ciprofloxacin by using Sohel’s Reagent Method to access its molecular concentration in laboratory. Few Ayurveda drugs are proved to be efficient in degrading the selected Antibiotic. Keywords: Antibiotic, Bio- Degradation, Ciprofloxacin, Sohel’s Reagent Test
