Staphylococcus aureusis a Gram-positive bacterium that causes many harmful and life-threatening diseases. Some strains of this bacterium are resistant to available antibiotics. This study was designed to evaluate the ability of indigenous actinomycetes to produce antibacterial compounds againstS. aureusand characterize the structure of the resultant antibacterial compounds. Therefore, a slightly modified agar well diffusion method was used to determine the antibacterial activity of actinomycete isolates against the test microorganisms. The bacterial extracts with antibacterial activity were fractionated by silica gel and G-25 sephadex column chromatography. Also, the active fractions were analyzed by thin layer chromatography. Finally, the partial structure of the resultant antibacterial compound was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. One of the isolates, which had a broad spectrum and high antibacterial activity, was designated asPseudonocardiasp. JB05, based on the results of biochemical and 16S rDNA gene sequence analysis. Minimum inhibitory concentration for this bacterium was 40 AU mL−1againstS. aureus. The antibacterial activity of this bacterium was stable after autoclaving, 10% SDS, boiling, and proteinase K. Thin layer chromatography, using anthrone reagent, showed the presence of carbohydrates in the purified antibacterial compound. Finally, FT-IR spectrum of the active compound illustrated hydroxyl groups, hydrocarbon skeleton, and double bond of polygenic compounds in its structure. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report describing the efficient antibacterial activity by a local strain ofPseudonocardia.The results presented in this work, although at the initial stage in bioactive product characterization, will possibly contribute toward thePseudonocardiascale-up for the production and identification of the antibacterial compounds.

Plants are a rich source of effective non-toxic biologically active substances. Various physicochemical methods of analysis are used for evaluation of plant antioxidant activity. Composition of ethanol extracts of red, yellow and white onion husks, dried rosemary, basil, and chaga were studied by high performance thin layer chromatography (HPTLC) method. The antioxidant activity of the obtained fractions on a chromatographic plate was assessed by subsequent DPPH screening. The extracts red and yellow onion husk and rosemary demonstrated the highest antioxidant activity, variability of the qualitative composition and similarity of antioxidant profiles, while extract of white onion husks did not contain any antioxidant classes. Intensive spots with Rf of 0.13-0.97 were observed along the whole chromatogram track corresponding to red onion husks. It was also found that all tested extract, excepting white onion husk and chaga, contained spots with varying degrees of intensity in the Rf range of 0.96-0.98, which corresponded quercetin Rf value.

Abstract Background: Alpinia officinarum Hance (ginger family) is an important Chinese medicine, especially in Southern China. Objective: A simple and effective high-performance thin-layer chromatography coupled with 2, 2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl bioautography (HPTLC-DPPH) and electrospray ionization quadrupole time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometry (ESI-Q-TOF-MS/MS) method was developed for the bioactivity-based quality control of A. officinarum. Methods: The HPTLC-DPPH and ESI-Q-TOF-MS/MS were applied for the analysis of different parts of A. officinarum after using methanol extraction for 23 batches of taproot, four batches of aerial, and three batches of fibril parts. Results: The systematic evaluation showed that similar components in taproot and aerial parts make the major antioxidant activity. However, based on our evaluation, the antioxidant ability of the aerial parts is lower than the taproot parts. There is also a significant difference (P < 0.05) between taproot and fibril parts of the root. The chemical structures of compounds with the antioxidant capacity were tentatively identified as 5R-hydroxy-7-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-1-phenyl-3-heptanone (band 1), kaempferide (band 2), and galangin (band 3) based on ESI-Q-TOF-MS/MS analytical results and further confirmed by standards. Conclusions: This identification indicated that two flavonoid compounds and one diarylheptanoid compound possessed high potentials to be used as the antioxidant biomarkers for the quality control of A. officinarum. Highlights: The comparison of different parts could be considered as guidelines for the usage of A. officinarum.

Objective: This work aimed to screen the antioxidant activity of marine macroalgae from the Moroccan Atlantic coast (region of El Jadida). Methods: Evaluation of the antioxidant activity of different collected species, lyophilized and extracted with a solvent mixture chloroform/methanol (2/1; v/v) was conducted according to two techniques, first by thin layer chromatography (tlc) then by spectrophotometry, using a free radical 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (dpph). The sampling on a distance of 110 km allowed to harvest 86 algal species (16 brown algae, 47 red algae, 14 green algae and 9 algae being identified). Results: The analysis by thin layer chromatography reveals an antioxidant activity in nearly half of harvested algal species (52.32 %). This activity varies depending on the concentration of the extract and in function of incubation time in the presence of dpph. The monitoring of the kinetics of degradation of dpph by spectrophotometer in the presence of extracts which were active by tlc allowed to confirm the results and select the most active algal species based on the percentage of remaining dpph in the medium after 120 min of reaction: Fucus spiralis (17.02 %), Cyctoseira ericoides (12.16 %) (Phaeophyceae), and Gracilaria multipartita (36%), Halopitys incurvus (5%) (Rhodophyceae). Conclusion: The results show that the methodology adopted in this work is reliable and can be used for rapid screening of antioxidant property in plants and the species: Fucus spiralis, Cyctoseira ericoides, Gracilaria multipartita, and Halopitys incurvus can be a promising source of natural compounds endowed with high antioxidant potential.

Abstract A method was developed to separate, detect, and quantitate erythromycin (ERY) and tylosin (TYL) in animal feeds in the presence of 11 other drugs: 3 nitrofurans, 2 tetracycline antibiotics, 3 sulfonamides, 2 coccidiostats, and 1 antibacterial growth promoter. ERY and TYL were separated from coexisting drugs, detected by thin-layer chromatography, and quantitated microbiologically by an agar diffusion method. Analysis of 125 experimental animal feed samples fortified at 5 levels (7.5–400 ppm) with ERY and TYL and at 1 level (50 ppm) with the rest of the drugs gave limits of quantitation of 2 and 5 ppm, recoveries of 90.3 and 92.4%, and relative standard deviations of 4.3–7.3% and 3.6–6.1%, respectively.

Antibacterial compound from methanol fraction of methylene dichloride extract of pelawan bark had been studied. Pelawan bark was extracted using ethanol 95% and CH2Cl2-water (1:1), respectively. Extract of CH2Cl2 was partitioned using hexane-methanol 90% (1:1). Afterwards, methanol fraction was analyzed by thin layer chromatography methods to find the best eluent for column chromatography. The best eluent came from mixture of acetone-chloroform-methanol (0,6:4:0,4). The fractionation yielded 16 fractions with the first (M1) and the third (M5) fractions became the one spotted fractions. M1 and M5 fractions were examined for their antibacterial activity using paper diffusion methods by determining minimum inhibitory concentration value. M1 fraction showed greater activity than M5 fraction with minimum inhibitory concentration value of 2,7857 mg/mL. The result of phytochemistry test showed that both fractions contain terpenoid.
