   • According to Prabhu S (2010)

     Excerpt Agar well diffusion method revealed high activity against microorganisms, Bacillus cereus; Bacillus megaterium; Bacillus stearothemophilus, Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus &. Streptococcus faecalis a group of gram- positive bacteria that frequently cause enteric infections in humans.

   • According to Idrus I (2021)

     Excerpt Importantly to study the coastal vegetation from Kekara Laut (Canavalia maritima Thou.) to observe the antibacterial agents towards Staphylococcus epidermidis. The statistical analysis test was very significantly different from all antibacterial tests, the value of F count was 682.1 with F table (3.48), at the level of α = 0.05 (3.48) & α = 0.01 (5.99), which indicates that H0 is rejected, but using the Variance method in the Newman-Keuls range approach shows that each concentration has a good inhibitory ability.

   • According to Arruda Cavalcante TT (2013)

     Excerpt Lectins are proteins that bind specifically to carbohydrates & may have important biological activities on bacterial cells, acting as antibacterial & anti-biofilm agents. ConM (Canavalia maritima lectin) is a protein that is able to inhibit the planktonic growth and biofilm formation of S.
