    Punica granatum L. (“pomegranate”) has been used in traditional medicine since ancient times for the treatment of various diseases. Several studies have demonstrated its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antiparasitic, and antifungal properties, mainly from hydroalcoholic extracts of the peel. However, few studies have investigated pomegranate juice extracts using acetone and ethyl acetate. The aim of this research was to evaluate the antibacterial activity of acetone and ethyl acetate extracts from pomegranate juice. Antibacterial activity was assessed using the disk diffusion method. Four concentrations (200 mg/mL, 300 mg/mL, 400 mg/mL, and 500 mg/mL) of each extract were tested against Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923, Escherichia coli ATCC 25922, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27853. Inhibition zones were qualitatively determined according to the Durafford scale for in vitro inhibitory effects in phytotherapy and CLSI antimicrobial standards. The results indicated that the acetone extract exhibited antibacterial activity against S. aureus and E. coli. Furthermore, a comparative analysis revealed that microbial inhibition was inversely proportional to the quantification of ellagic acid. These findings highlight the potential of pomegranate juice acetone extract as a natural antimicrobial source.
