You can find information about your topic by searching on the web for "antibacterial properties of plants", "plant antiseptics" and similar terms.
Good luck!

If your interested in different anti-biotics I know that certain molds like Penicillium mold (which is used for penicillin) are used for anti-biotics. I also know that silver has anti-biotic properties, which is often incorporated in plastics and silicon, which you may want to research (http://www.alibaba.com/catalog/10778238 ... r_Ion.html , http://www.all-natural.com/silver-1.html). Good luck.

Hi,

I am sorry to hear you are having so much trouble finding an acceptable project. I can point you to a discussion on Bromelain which might interest you:

If this does not meet your needs, I recommend looking at the Science Fair Idea guide on this site, in the life science idea section.

Best wishes,
