Using thin-layer chromatography (TLC) bioautography, a total of 58 extracts from various organs (aerial parts, leaves, flowers, fruits, roots) of 16 Turkish plants were tested for their antibacterial, antifungal, acetylcholinesterase inhibitory, antioxidant, and radical scavenging activities. The hexane, CHCl 3 /CH 2 Cl 2 , water, and total MeOH extracts were used. No activity was observed against two Gram-negative bacteria (Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aureginosa) and the yeast Candida albicans. However, 23 plant extracts, mostly the CHCl 3 /CH 2 Cl 2 and H 2 O-solubles, inhibited the growth of all five Gram-positive bacteria tested, Micrococcus luteus, Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus cereus, Staphylococcus aureus, and Staphylococcus epidermidis. Of the active extracts, the CHCl 3 -soluble of the roots of Putoria calabrica (L. fil) DC (Rubiaceae) displayed the highest antibacterial potential. The majority of the CHCl 3 /CH 2 Cl 2 crude extracts also appeared to inhibit acetylcholinesterase on TLC plates at 100 mg/spot concentration. Particularly active samples were the middle polarity extracts (CHCl 3 /CH 2 Cl 2 ) of the leaves of Rhododendron smirnovii Trautv., R. ponticum L., and R. ungernii Trautv. (Ericaceae). b-Carotene, bcarotene/linoleic acid mixture, and 2,2-diphenyl-l-pieryhydrazyl (DPPH) solutions sprayed onto TLC plates were used for detecting antioxidant and radical scavenging properties of the crude extracts. Antioxidant and radical scavenging activities were found to be predominant in highly polar extracts. The water-solubles of all Rhododendron (Ericaceae) and Phlomis (Lamiaceae) species presented the most significant activity.

“…Previous antimicrobial activity studies on various Phlomis species from different localities showed inhibitory activity against a wide spectrum of microorganisms such as human, animal and plant pathogens, including food poisoning bacteria and several fungi (Aligiannis, Kalpoutzakis, Kyriakopoulou, Mitaku, & Chinou, 2004;Couladis, Tanimanidis, Tzakou, Chinou, & Harvala, 2000;Ristic et al, 2000;Tsitsimi, Loukis, & Verykokidou, 2000). Phlomis extracts (Digrak, Ilcim, Alma, & Sen, 1999;Ristic et al, 2000), essential oils, and pure compounds (Aligiannis et al, 2004;Calis et al, 2005;Kyriakopoulo, Magiatis, Skaltounis, Aligiannis, & Harvala, 2001), were tested in these studies.…”

“…The antimutagenic activity of the essential oil and of the crude extract was evaluated by the same research group [4]. Studies on the same plant, from the same region, have been conducted considering the antimicrobial and the antifungal activity of its essential oil, as well as its methanolic extract, with moderate results [5]. Traditionally the infusion of P. fruticosa leaves is used in Greece as a tonic drink, whereas in Italy the dried leaves are used as a poultice on wounds [6].…”

Chemical Composition and Antimicrobial Activity of the Essential Oil of Algerian Phlomis bovei De Noé subsp. bovei

Abstract:The chemical composition of essential oil obtained by steam distillation of dried aerial parts of Phlomis bovei De Noé subsp. bovei collected from Algeria, was analyzed by GC and GC/MS. Seventy five constituents (corresponding to 86.37% of the total weight) were identified. The main components were: germacrene D, β-caryophyllene, β-bournonene, thymol and hexahydrofarnesyl acetone. Furthermore, the antimicrobial activity of the oil was evaluated against six Gram (+/-) bacteria and three pathogenic fungi, using the agar dilution technique. It was found that the oil exhibited strong antimicrobial activity against most of the tested microorganisms.
