Abstract: Betel leaf is cultivated as cash crop mostly in southern parts of India and is chewed as raw by a large proportion of Indian population. Antibiotic resistant microbe on betel leaf has led to ban on its export and import in few countries. These antibiotic resistant bacteria further replace the normal flora of mouth causing serious consequences for the future. A total of 30 betel leaf samples were collected from local retail shops and wholesale market. Bacterial isolation was done through betel leaf extract by serial dilution technique. The average Total Viable Count (TVC) of local shop samples were 3.14X107 CFU/ml and wholesale market samples were 2.62 X 107 CFU/ml. Mainly three species of bacteria were isolated from samples which were Streptococcus sp. Staphylococcus sp. and Streptobacillus sp. Antibiotic sensitivity test showed that Streptococcus sp. and Streptobacillus sp. were resistant to Penicillin and Azithromycin respectively. The effect of betel leaf juice on mice oral microflora was also conducted. The result revealed the change and replacement in oral microflora by antibiotic resistant bacteria. The study highlights the need of implementation of hygiene and safe practices during the cultivation, selling and use of betel leaves to protect the public health.
