tailieunhanh - Antimicrobial activity of Viscum album L. subsp. abietis (Wiesb)
Viscum album L. subsp. abietis (Wiesb.) (Loranthaceae) is extensively used for treatment in traditional medicine. This plant was collected in the region of Artvin, northern Turkey. Different concentrations of n-hexane extract were tested using the agar diffusion technique against 6 bacteria (Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Enterobacter cloacae and Proteus vulgaris), and 1 fungus (Candida albicans). | Turk J Biol 27 (2003) 255-258 © TÜB‹TAK Antimicrobial Activity of Viscum album L. subsp. abietis (Wiesb) Ömer ERTÜRK Department of Biology, Faculty of Arts and Sciences, Karadeniz Technical University, 61080, Trabzon - TURKEY Hatice KATI Department of Biology, Faculty of Arts and Sciences, Karadeniz Technical University, 61080, Trabzon - TURKEY Nurettin YAYLI Department of Chemistry, Faculty of Arts and Sciences, Karadeniz Technical University, 61080, Trabzon - TURKEY Zihni DEM‹RBA⁄ Department of Biology, Faculty of Arts and Sciences, Karadeniz Technical University, 61080, Trabzon - TURKEY Received: Abstract: Viscum album L. subsp. abietis (Wiesb.) (Loranthaceae) is extensively used for treatment in traditional medicine. This plant was collected in the region of Artvin, northern Turkey. Different concentrations of n-hexane extract were tested using the agar diffusion technique against 6 bacteria (Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Enterobacter cloacae and Proteus vulgaris), and 1 fungus (Candida albicans). We determined that fractions 6 and 7 of n-hexane extract of V. album subsp. abietis showed antimicrobial activity against the micro-organisms tested.
