Various medicinal plants have been used for years in daily life to treat diseases all over the world. They have been used as a source of medicine. This study was conducted to check antimicrobial activity of three plant species of family Mimosaceae (Acacia nilotica L., Albizia lebbeck L., and Mimosa himalayana). Plant extracts showed activity against all test pathogens (Bacillus subtilis, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, klebsiella pneumonia, Aspergillus niger and Aspergillus flavus).
