#47 The Feasibility of Adelfa Extract as Pesticide Vivencio C. Fuentes Jr.‚ Razelle Angela B. Camitan‚ Honey Jane T. Dela Cruz ABSTRACT The project aims to test the feasibility of extracts from the adelfa plant as pesticide. The leaves were cut from the stem and then subjected to steam bath. Soxhlet apparatus was used for extraction; methanol was used as solvent. The extract was then distilled‚ and diluted into 4 containers to obtain concentrations of 100%‚ 75%‚ 50% and 25%. There were

resistance. The most promising candidates to be developed as alternative drugs are the antimicrobial peptides. In the present study the antimicrobial peptide Microcin C7 was docked with the catalytic domain of Diphtheria toxin and further the simulational studies were performed to find the stability of the complex. The results were significant and hence it was predicted that further work can be done on antimicrobial peptide to develop it as an altenative drug against Diphtheria toxin. Keywords- I. INTRODUCTION
