Abstract: Eleven ethanolic extracts from spices of Melissa officinalis, Mentha piperita, Laurus nobilis, Rhus coriaria, Dianthus coryophyllum, Piper nigrum, Capsicum annum, Juniperus oxycedrus, Erica arborea, Colutea arborescens, and Cuminum cyminum collected from various regions of Turkey and local markets were assayed for the in vitro antibacterial activity against 3 Gram-positive (Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus and S. epidermidis) and 2 Gram-negative bacteria (Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa), u… Show more

“…The minimum inhibitory concentration in hexane and water were low, observed only with Issatchenkia orientalis when their development was stymied with the hexane extract. The minimum inhibitory concentration activity of the extracts against the test fungi agrees with earlier works on several plants'extracts with acetone and ethanol as solvents of maceration (Erturk, 2006;Awouafack et al, 2013;Santana et al, 2015). The minimum fungicidal concentration which is the concentration of the extracts with no observable growth of fungi after incubation presage that acetone and ethanol extracts of the leaves of M. macrostachyum had a low minimum fungicidal concentration on Aspergillus niger, Issatchenkia orientalis, Meyerozyma caribbica, Meyerozyma guilliermondii and Trichoderma harzianum at ≤0.5 mg/ml.…”

“…(Adegunloye et al, 2006) are used in packaging and presenting foods to clientele. The leaf extracts of these plants have been documented to possess antimicrobial properties (Adegunloye et al, 2006;Erturk, 2006;Yazdani et al, 2011) and essential oils from plants have been generally recognized as being safe and while the toxic impact of these plants on food might be quite inconsequential (Borbosa et al, 2009;Mith et al, 2014).…”
