The present work was taken up as an exploratory study to test the corrosion inhibition efficiency and antimicrobial activity of natural dyes extracted from Turmeric root, Onion skin, Hibiscus flower, Teak bark, Beetroot. The corrosion inhibition study of the extracted dyes was carried out against sulphuric acid and hydrochloric acid. The extracted dyes were tested against common pathogens Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa are used to do antimicrobial activity.
