“…The minimum inhibitory concentration at which the ethyl acetate extract prevented the growth of Streptococcus mutans (γ-hemolytic species which is responsible mainly for tooth decay, bacteremia, and infective endocarditis) was 2.5 mg/mL [49]. It was also proved that CAP and its derivative are growth inhibitors of Salmonella typhimurium, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Bacillus cereus, B. subtilis, Clostridium tetani, and also Streptococcus pyogenes [50,51]. Mechanisms in which capsaicinoids inhibit bacteria growth are not completely known yet, however it is more and more often said that it is the osmotic stress caused by capsaicin and disorders in expression of genes responsible for cell growth and proper structure of cell membrane.…”

S u m m a r yThis article presents multidirectional effects of capsaicin and its natural derivatives as well as natural and synthetic analogs in term of their therapeutic properties. Active agents present in various Capsicum genus plants exert analgesic, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antioxidant and gastroprotective effects. Furthermore, capsaicin positively influences the metabolism of lipids. Numerous research show that capsaicinoids inhibit proliferation and migration process of cancer cells, what makes them molecules of high interest in oncology. Among broad range of positive activities, we have focused only on those properties that have already found application in medicine or seemed to be the most probably used in the near future. Even if in low or single doses this compound has been reported successful in numerous therapies, the negative consequences of high doses or prolonged administration is also discussed in the review.

“…AlizadehBehbahani et al [28] reported that the most of the antimicrobial active compounds were soluble in polar solvent such as ethanol instead of water. Koffi-Nevry et al [29] the effect of Capsicum annuum and Capsicum frutescens methanol and aqueous extracts on selected bacteria (S. aureus, S. typhimurium, Vibrio cholerae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, E. coli, and S. dysenteriae) were investigated. Both extracts were found to be effective against V. cholerae, S. aureus and S. typhimurium, while methanol extracts showed the greatest effect.…”

Background: Medicine plants have been used as sources of medicine in virtually all cultures. During the last decade, the use of traditional medicine (TM) has been expanded globally and is gaining popularity. Objectives: The antimicrobial activities of methanol and water extracts of Myrtus communis L. leaves were evaluated in this study. Materials and Methods:In this experimental study, the tests were carried out using disk agar diffusion method at four extract concentrations (5, 10, 15 and 20 mg/mL). The MICs and MBCs of the extracts of M. communis were determined by agar dilution method.

“…Some of phytochemicals that soluble in these solvents include tannins, polyphenols, polyacetylenes, flavone, sterols and alkaloids [16]. In other study methanol extracts of Capsicum frutescens were found to be more effective against S. aureus, and Salmonella typhimurium [7]. Other study also showed ethanol extract has better antimicrobial activities against E. coli and Pseudomonas specious than Chloroform and water extracts [9].…”

Introduction: Food preservation is required to maintain for a long period of time. Traditional organic food preservative, "Datta" is spice mainly made up of Chili Peppers which frequently used in southern and western part of Ethiopia. Datta can be consumed almost with every kind of foods and it is believed as appetizer and antimicrobial agent against food borne pathogen. This study aimed to assess in vitro antimicrobial activity of fermented condiment and Capsicum frutescensagainst multi drug resistance clinical isolate and standard reference bacteria.
