available antimicrobial drugs necessitates additional
research in the discovery of new safe and effective
antimicrobial agents.
Hands are needed to protect from bacterial pathogens
as they are the most exposed part of the body. Proper
hand hygiene is the most important measure of
preventing health care associated infections especially
children and old aged persons with less immunity. In
present study we formulate herbal hand wash using
different alcoholic plant extracts holds that
antimicrobial potency and thereby formulating ready
to use herbal hand sanitizer.
2.MATERIALS AND METHODS
2.1 Plant Sample
Trachyspermum copticum (Omum seed)
Coleus aromaticus (Karpooravalli)
Acorus calamus (Sweet flag; Vasambu)
Mentha piperita (Peppermint)
Piper nigram (Milagu)
Elatteria cardamomum (Ellam)
Aloe barbadensis (Aloe)
2.2 Preparation of Herbal Hand Sanitizer:
 The dried plant extracts (T. copticum,
A.calamus, P. nigrum, E. Cardamomum, C.
aromaticus and M. piperita) were prepared
using methanol.
 Plant extracts T. copticum (3%), A. calamus
(1%), P. nigrum (5%), E. cardamomum (2%)
C. aromaticus (3%) and M. piperita (5%) were
added in to the 100 ml beaker.
 15% of Aloe barbadensis was added in to the

The samples were streaked onto nutrient agar.
The inoculated plates were
incubated aerobically in an inverted position at 37 °C
for 24 hours. The plates were then observed for
the presence of isolated colonies were again
sub‐cultured on nutrient agar to isolate pure
culture. After isolating pure cultures, bacterial
isolates were further identified and characterized
by Gram staining, and biochemical tests [8]. and
identified based on the morphological,
physiological and the biochemical characteristics
presented in Bergey's Manual of Determination.
2.5 Screening of anti bacterial activity by agar well
diffusion assay
The agar well diffusion method of Perez et al., 1990
[9] was employed. Mueller Hinton Agar medium was
inoculated with the microorganism suspended in
sterile water. Once the agar was solidified, it was
punched with a six millimeters diameter wells and
filled with 25 μL of the sample, positive control and
negative control. The test was carried out by triplicate.
The plaques were incubated at 35 ± 2°
C for 24 h. The
antimicrobial activity was calculated by applying the
expression in mm.
2.6 In vivo efficacy of Herbal hand sanitizer
Total of five volunteers with different age groups
were involved to evaluate in vivo efficacy of the
sample. Total eight palm washes were taken from the
volunteers. Control palm washes were taken by use of
sterile water only.

2.6 a. Bacteriological study [10]
Point inoculation method was used for viable count of
different bacterial flora. Aseptically 10 µl palm wash
samples were transferred to 90 µl sterile saline (85%)
solution. Appropriate serial dilutions were made and
aseptically 5 µl droplets were point inoculated on
selective media plates followed by incubation at 37°C
for 6 hrs. Typical colonies showing characteristic
coloration were counted and representative colonies
were picked up randomly and counter using colony
counter.
2.7 Antioxidant Activity by Power Reducing Assay
[11]
1 ml of Plant extract was mixed with phosphate buffer
(2.5 ml 0.2 M, pH 6.6) and potassium ferric cyanide
(2.5 ml). The mixture was incubated at 50°C for 20
minutes. A portion (2.5 ml) of trichloroacetic acid
(10%) was added to the mixture, which was then
centrifuged at 3000 rpm for 10 min. The upper layer
of solution (2.5 ml) was mixed with distilled water
(2.5 ml) and Ferric chloride (0.5 ml, 0.1%) and
absorbance measured at 700 nm. Increased
absorbance of the reaction mixture indicates stronger
reducing power. The activity was compared with
ascorbic acid as standard.
Calculation:
Percentage scavenging activity = AcontrolAtest
×100
Acontrol
Where Acontrol is the absorbance of the control. Atest is
the absorbance in the presence of the sample.
3.RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
The herbal hand sanitizer was prepared and it was
used for evaluate the antimicrobial and antioxidant
activity.
3.1 Identification of Human bacterial flora
The bacterial flora like Yersinia sp. Proteus sp.
Escherichia coli, Klebsiella sp. Salmonella sp. and
Pseudomonas sp. were isolated from human palm and
identified based on Bergy’s manual. In this study,
prevalence of gram positive and gram negative
bacteria organisms were 66.7% and 33.3%
respectively (fig: 1). Among Gram negative
organisms, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella sp. Salmonella
sp. were found to be the most predominant pathogen.
Our skin contains large numbers of microorganisms,
mainly Gram-positive. Most of the gram positive
bacteria are natural flora, which are commonly found
on the hands, face and in deep layers of the skin [12,
13]. The goal of hygiene is a sufficient reduction of
microbial counts on the skin to prevent cross-
transmission of pathogens among humans.
3.2 Antibacterial Susceptibility Testing
The antimicrobial activity of herbal hand sanitizer
against different pathogens was determined by Agar
Well diffusion method. The sample hand sanitizer
possessed more antibacterial effective against isolated
microorganisms with the inhibition zone ranging from
15–30.8 mm. More activity was found in Yersinia
sp.> Proteus sp> Salmonella sp.> Klebseilla sp.>
Pseudomonas sp.> E.coli. Aloe vera used for its
moisturizing activity in many cosmetics [6]. Plants are
rich in potential secondary metabolites, such as
flavonoids, tannins alkaloids polyphenols ext. These
compounds have diverse biological activity including
antibacterial activity [14]. Most of the polyphenols are
extracted in the methanol [15]. The results suggested
that herbal extracts in mixture giving higher activity
than the individual extracts. The combination of the
antibacterial compounds from different plant extracts
may show synergistic effect enhancing their
antimicrobial activity.
Mithun A. Thombare [16] et al. 2015 observed that
the alcohol based herbal hand sanitizer (at
concentration 400 μg/ml) showed greater inhibition
zones against bacterial species Escherichia coli,
Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Bacillus subtilis and
Staphylococcus aureus in comparison to
commercially available hand sanitizer.
Microbial Load
Microbial load was analysed before applying sanitizer
and after applying of herbal based sanitizer. The result
showed that microbial load was considerably low
after applying herbal hand sanitizer. Highest reduction
was observed in college student and slum boy with 75
and 50% respectively after the application of herbal
hand sanitizer. Many studies have been done earlier in
view of evaluation of total transient microflora of
hands. Staphylococci especially coagulase –negative
S.aureus were found to be the dominant part of

transient hand microflora [17]. Colonization of health
care worker hands with S.aureus has been described
to range between 10 to 76.3% and transient flora
varies considerably from person to person
concluded that the herbal based sanitizer had potential
to control and prevent the over population of
flora in the palm.
Kavatheker et. al. (2004)[19], reported that pure
herbal hand sanitizers were found to be more effective
in reducing the total microbial load. Alcohol rubs are
approximately 100 times more effective against
viruses than any form of hand washing [20]
offer numerous advantages over non-alcoholic hand
disinfectants as, rubbing sanitizers onto both hands
&until it completely evaporate, usually requires only
15 to 30 seconds. Whereas vigorous friction, rinsing
with water, and drying with a towel are not needed
like hand disinfectants or soaps [21].
In vitro Antioxidant activity of Herbal hand
sanitizer
A concentration dependent scavenging activity was
observed in herbal hand sanitizer with maximum
activity of 49.4% achieved in the highest
concentration at 10mg/ml (fig 3). The sample
relatively higher reducing power due to the presence
of high bioactive compounds which was present in
selected medicinal ingredients and it has been
attributed with properties like free radical scaven

analgesic etc. which are widely used in cosmetic, and
pharmaceutical industries, natural antioxidants

Bacteriological study [10] Point inoculation method was used for viable count of different bacterial flora. Aseptically 10 µl palm wash samples were transferred to 90 µl sterile saline (85%) solution. Appropriate serial dilutions were made and aseptically 5 µl droplets were point inoculated on selective media plates followed by incubation at 37°C for 6 hrs. Typical colonies showing characteristic coloration were counted and representative colonies were picked up randomly and counter using colony counter. 2.7 Antioxidant Activity by Power Reducing Assay [11] 1 ml of Plant extract was mixed with phosphate buffer (2.5 ml 0.2 M, pH 6.6) and potassium ferric cyanide (2.5 ml). The mixture was incubated at 50°C for 20 minutes. A portion (2.5 ml) of trichloroacetic acid (10%) was added to the mixture, which was then centrifuged at 3000 rpm for 10 min. The upper layer of solution (2.5 ml) was mixed with distilled water (2.5 ml) and Ferric chloride (0.5 ml, 0.1%) and absorbance measured at 700 nm. Increased absorbance of the reaction mixture indicates stronger reducing power. The activity was compared with ascorbic acid as standard. Calculation: Percentage scavenging activity = AcontrolAtest ×100 Acontrol Where Acontrol is the absorbance of the control. Atest is the absorbance in the presence of the sample. 3.RESULTS AND DISCUSSION The herbal hand sanitizer was prepared and it was used for evaluate the antimicrobial and antioxidant activity. 3.1 Identification of Human bacterial flora The bacterial flora like Yersinia sp. Proteus sp. Escherichia coli, Klebsiella sp. Salmonella sp. and Pseudomonas sp. were isolated from human palm and identified based on Bergy’s manual. In this study, prevalence of gram positive and gram negative bacteria organisms were 66.7% and 33.3% respectively (fig: 1). Among Gram negative organisms, Escherichia coli, Klebsiella sp. Salmonella sp. were found to be the most predominant pathogen. Our skin contains large numbers of microorganisms, mainly Gram-positive. Most of the gram positive bacteria are natural flora, which are commonly found on the hands, face and in deep layers of the skin [12, 13]. The goal of hygiene is a sufficient reduction of microbial counts on the skin to prevent cross- transmission of pathogens among humans. 3.2 Antibacterial Susceptibility Testing The antimicrobial activity of herbal hand sanitizer against different pathogens was determined by Agar Well diffusion method. The sample hand sanitizer possessed more antibacterial effective against isolated microorganisms with the inhibition zone ranging from 15–30.8 mm. More activity was found in Yersinia sp.> Proteus sp> Salmonella sp.> Klebseilla sp.> Pseudomonas sp.> E.coli. Aloe vera used for its moisturizing activity in many cosmetics [6]. Plants are rich in potential secondary metabolites, such as flavonoids, tannins alkaloids polyphenols ext. These compounds have diverse biological activity including antibacterial activity [14]. Most of the polyphenols are extracted in the methanol [15]. The results suggested that herbal extracts in mixture giving higher activity than the individual extracts. The combination of the antibacterial compounds from different plant extracts may show synergistic effect enhancing their antimicrobial activity. Mithun A. Thombare [16] et al. 2015 observed that the alcohol based herbal hand sanitizer (at concentration 400 μg/ml) showed greater inhibition zones against bacterial species Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Bacillus subtilis and Staphylococcus aureus in comparison to commercially available hand sanitizer. Microbial Load Microbial load was analysed before applying sanitizer and after applying of herbal based sanitizer. The result showed that microbial load was considerably low after applying herbal hand sanitizer. Highest reduction was observed in college student and slum boy with 75 and 50% respectively after the application of herbal hand sanitizer. Many studies have been done earlier in view of evaluation of total transient microflora of hands. Staphylococci especially coagulase –negative S.aureus were found to be the dominant part of

Colonization of health care worker hands with S.aureus has been described to range between 10 to 76.3% and transient flora varies considerably from person to person concluded that the herbal based sanitizer had potential to control and prevent the over population of flora in the palm. Kavatheker et. al. (2004)[19], reported that pure herbal hand sanitizers were found to be more effective in reducing the total microbial load. Alcohol rubs are approximately 100 times more effective against viruses than any form of hand washing [20] offer numerous advantages over non-alcoholic hand disinfectants as, rubbing sanitizers onto both hands &until it completely evaporate, usually requires only 15 to 30 seconds. Whereas vigorous friction, rinsing with water, and drying with a towel are not needed like hand disinfectants or soaps [21]. In vitro Antioxidant activity of Herbal hand sanitizer A concentration dependent scavenging activity was observed in herbal hand sanitizer with maximum activity of 49.4% achieved in the highest concentration at 10mg/ml (fig 3). The sample relatively higher reducing power due to the presence of high bioactive compounds which was present in selected medicinal ingredients and it has been attributed with properties like free radical scaven anthelmintic, antimicrobial, antiinflammatory and analgesic etc. which are widely used in cosmetic, and pharmaceutical industries, natural antioxidants [22,23,24].Hence, it could have promising skin care properties, can able to protect the human body free radicals.
