Abstract
In this study the effect of seminal fluid exposure on vaginosis causing bacteria’s; Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli and Proteus mirabilis were determined using agar disc diffusion method and agar well diffusion method. Clear zone of inhibition were observed against Staphylococus aureus and Escherichia coli on the other hand Pseudomonas aeruginosa resisted all sort of antibacterial effect successfully. This study opens up the wide possibilities of seminal fluid and its components in therapeutic field. In this current world thriving under the threat of antibiotic resistance and multidrug resistant bugs; any natural substance with stable antibacterial effect is a ray of hope for the scientists. With the results of this study it is clear that human seminal fluid have antibacterial effect on exposure against gram positive organisms like S.aureus and gram negative organisms like E.coli. The zone of inhibition is comparable to existing antibiotics. This study also clears out various misconceptions of the society.
