This research is a trial to demonstrate a range of capacities of some indoor plants to improve indoor air quality (IAQ) through their role in reducing total number of indoor microbiome. Besides to improve oxygen content and unipolarity coefficient factor (UCF). Plant materials were Aspidistra elatior; Chlorophytum comosum; Dracaena fragrans; Dracaena marginata; Epipremnum aureus and Syngonium podophyllum. Results revealed that the higher impact of plants on the bacteria was observed with Dracaena marginata plant and the less impact to Dracaena fragrans plant. Oxygen percentage and UCF were higher with the presence of indoor plants than those in control treatment.
