Antimicrobial activity of polyisoprenoids of sixteen mangrove species from North Sumatra, Indonesia

Abstract: Sumardi, Basyuni M, Wati R. 2018. Antimicrobial activity of polyisoprenoids of sixteen mangrove species from North Sumatra, Indonesia. Biodiversitas 19: 1243-1248. Mangroves including those that are distributed in the coast of North Sumatra containpolyisoprenoid with varying levels of polyprenol and dolichol constituents. Differences in polyisoprenoid levels were closely related tothe salinity of sea but the information about their biological activities is scarce. The present study aimed to describe the biolog… Show more

“…In line with this finding, the polyprenols in the root tissues were also dominated by dolichols [5], [7]. Polyisoprenoids have been tested in vitro to be more suitable as an antimicrobial agent and an oxidant in associated mangrove leaves and roots [20], consisting mostly of dolichols. Therefore, these results supported the previous view that polyisoprenoid composition in mangroves was not polyprenols but dolichols.…”

“…The presence of dolichol in all plant tissues (leaf, root, and flower) implied that polyprenol might not play an essential role in mangroves, although the function of polyprenol in the plant world was not well understood (Basyuni et al, 2017a). Recently, polyisoprenoid from sixteen mangrove species showed strong antimicrobial activity but did not inhibit the antifungal activity of Candida albicans (Sumardi et al 2018). More recently, polyisoprenoid from A. marina, A. lanata, and N. fruticans leaves exhibited an anticancer activity of colon cells (Sari et al 2018;Illian et al 2018).…”

“…[24,25] Seasonal variations in protein, polyphenol and tannin concentration in leaves of Rhizophoraceae was reported and the organic constituents proteins, polyphenol and tannin concentration were generally highest in rainy seasons, intermediate in summer and lowest in winter of mangrove leaves. [26] Earlier studies indicated that anti bacterial activity of the leaves of Ceriops tagal showed 9.78±0.32 mm zone of inhibition against Bacillus cereus and 9.25 ±0.84 mm against Staphylococcus aureus [27,28] . Bruguiera cylindica showed zone of inhibition of 6.8 ±0.84mm against Pseudomonas aeruginosa.…”
