The primary goal of this review was to decide the adequacy of L. flavum
medicinal oil hydrocolloids against MRSA by anti-microbial weakness testing
and decide its phytochemical properties. Linum flavum (Golden Flax seed) is an
herbaceous plant that has long been used since ancient past to combat
pathogens particularly those caused by bacterial, viral and fungal agents. This
study attempted to rediscover the forgotten past by treating the plant
derivative in the form of the hydrocolloids obtained from L. flavum and testing
its antimicrobial vulnerability testing against pediatric surgical isolates of
MRSA and comparing its data with the standard antibiotics available on the
market. The qualitative Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion techniques and the
quantitative standard antimicrobial techniques employed in this study. The
qualitative bio-phytochemicals of L. flavum hydrocolloids was carried out
using standard biochemical tests to detect the presence of phytochemical
components, which were then quantified using GC-MS-UV-Vis
spectrophotometry. The bio-phytochemical nature of L. flavum hydrocolloids
was assessed and the results were promising, along with MRSA vulnerability
test data, proving to be an asset for the phytol-pharmaceutical industries. This
study was to analyze the antibacterial effect of L. flavum oil hydrocolloids
against pediatric surgical isolates of Staphylococcus aurous resistant to methicillin antibiotics (MRSA). This study was also designed to analyze the bio phytochemical properties of L. flavum oil hydrocolloids in order to provide adequate future drug availability for combating dangerous pathogens
