<p class="Abstract">Frankenia hirsuta is widely located in Turkey, but the antimicrobial potential and biochemical composition analysis of it weren’t determined yet. By using the disk diffusion method, the susceptibility of 17 bacteria and 1 fungi were analyzed, which included Bacillus, Candida, Enterobacter, Enterococcus, Esche-richia, Klebsiella, Listeria, Pseudomonas, Salmonella and Staphylococcus genera. 0.8, 1.5 and 3.1 mg of samples were prepared by using absolute ethanol. The bioactive composition of the plant extract was determined by gas chromato-graphy-mass spectroscopy, and National Institute of Standards and Techno-logy library was used for the mass spectra analysis. The results showed that F. hirsuta had antimicrobial activity against all of the studied micro-organisms except E. aerogenes and E. coli. Several active metabolites were identified, but some composition of this sample didn’t match with the library. These results are the first report for the antimicrobial potential and biochemical composition of F. hirsuta.</p><p class="Abstract"><strong>Video Clip of Methodology</strong>:</p><p class="Abstract">3 min 36 sec: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/v/YeKtYxtaa6c">Full Screen</a> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YeKtYxtaa6c">Alternate</a></p>
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
