The fatty acid profile, antioxidant/antibacterial, and cytotoxic effects of the extracts obtained from Jurinea turcica B.Doğan& A.Duran have been evaluated for the first time in the current study. The fatty acid profile of ethanolic extracts was determined using the Soxhlet extractor by a gas chromatography‐mass spectrometer. The antioxidant and antibacterial activities were measured by 2,2‐diphenyl‐1‐picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging and ferrous reduction tests and the disc diffusion technique. Additionally, the cytotoxicity and wound healing assays were performed on A549 cells. The highest amount of component in the leaf extract was docosanoic acid methyl ester, whereas abundant arachidonic acid methyl ester was mainly found in the flower extract. The IC50 values, the 50 % scavenging value for the DPPH radical, were 179.13 and 124.67 μg/mL for the leaf and flower extracts, respectively. IC50 values (the half‐maximal inhibitory concentration) were 10.4 and 24.7 μg/mL for the flower and leaf extracts, respectively. The leaf extract showed more potent antibacterial activity on Enterococcus faecalis (17 mm) and Staphylococcus aureus (16 mm) bacteria than the flower extract. In conclusion, the extracts of J. turcica have anti‐cancerogenic and antibacterial effects. Leaf extracts have antibacterial and anti‐metastatic effects, while flower extracts show antioxidant, cytotoxic, and apoptotic properties in A549 cells.

“…The rate at which microorganisms develop resistance to antibiotics has increased tremendously and is becoming a universal health challenge (Gerber 2010). Allium cepa, popularly known as onion has been one of the ancient vegetables in history (Gautam et al 1997;Mehta 2017;Semerci et al 2020;Fredotović et al 2021). It is a condensed rhizome, plump, in shape, having a thin, dry sheath which appears either red or white in color (Azu et al 2007;Gomaa 2017;Sarvinehbaghi et al 2021).…”

The evolution of resistivity by microorganisms is a worldwide public health contest that renders antimicrobial agents impotent, leading to an upsurge in diseases and mortality in man and livestock. The current study was designed to ascertain the antimicrobial activities of Allium cepa (onions) extracts. The antimicrobial activities of the onion extracts on the trial organisms, including both gram-positive and -negative bacteria, were carried out using the Agar Well Diffusion method. The tube macro-dilution method determined the extracts' MIC (mg/mL). We investigated the MBC and MFC of the extracts. The antimicrobial assay proved that; the microorganisms tested were sensitive at 50mg/mL but resistant at 3.125mg/mL. From the MIC results, the increasing order of activity of the extracts was Staphylococcus epidermidis (MIC 3.125mg/mL), Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, and Salmonella typhimurium (MIC 6.25mg/mL), Candida albicans and Staphylococcus aureus (MIC 12.5mg/mL) and Klebsiella pneumoniae (25mg/mL). The MBC results proved that the onion extracts (50mg/mL) were bactericidal except for Staphylococcus aureus and fungistatic. Comparatively, at a 5% alpha level, pronounced differences were observed between the zones of inhibition and the solvent extracts by cold and hot water extract on the experimental organisms. However, no significant disparity was observed between the effect of aqueous and solvent extracts. Hence, the study recommends using onions, natural herbal medicine, and antimicrobial agents.
