Resumen:
Zinnia peruviana (L.) L (Astraceae) is a native plant known by the vernacular names “Chinita del Campo”. This specie is widely used in folk medicine as against malaria. Different extracts were prepared using mixtures of ethyl acetate and n-hexane on flash chromatography. The aim of this study was to evaluate the antibacterial activity of Z. peruviana against methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 43300, Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27853, Listeria monocytogenes ATCC 74902, Klebsiella pnemoniae and Bacillus cereus.
