Phytochemical screening and antimicrobial activities of Dialium indum / Izzul Nazmi Bokhari
Dialium indum or also known as keranji in Malay is a type of tree that grows wild in forest or forest edge and grows through seeds. These trees are growing wild in lowland forest in Malaysia, Thailand and Indo-China. Nevertheless, there is too little study has been recorded about Dialium indum espec...
