The antimicrobial effect of aqueous extract of lemongrass (Cymbopogon citratus) on some isolated microorganisms under varying parameters was investigated. Aqueous extract of lemongrass was prepared and its antimicrobial effect was evaluated against isolated bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli and Bacillus cereus) and fungi (Aspergillus flavus and Candida albicans) at varying temperature (40, 60 and 800C) and concentration (10-1, 10-2, 10-4, 10-8 and 10-16 mol/L) of the lemongrass aqueous extract shows that the extract was resisted by Escherichia coli, Bacillus cereus, Aspergillus flavus and Candida albicans. The aqueous C. citratus was able to inhibit the growth of Staphylococcus aureus and this inhibition increases as the concentration of the aqueous extract increase irrespective of the temperature of extraction. The aqueous extract of C. citratus is a tremendous antimicrobial substance especially towards Staphylococcus aureus.

Celem niniejszej pracy było określenie poziomu wybranych mikroorganizmów, porównanie zawartości polifenoli i antocyjanów oraz zdolności przeciwutleniającej napojów kombucha dostępnych w handlu detalicznym z napojem wytworzonym doświadczalnie metodą tradycyjną. Badania objęły 12 napojów komercyjnych oraz jeden uzyskany doświadczalnie, którego bazą była zielona herbata z 10-procentowym dodatkiem sacharozy. W badanych produktach oznaczono: liczbę bakterii Acetobacter sp., Gluconobacter sp., LAB i drożdży, pH, ogólną zawartość antocyjanów, ogólną zawartość polifenoli oraz aktywność przeciwutleniającą. Aktywność przeciwdrobnoustrojową napojów kombucha oceniono metodą dyfuzyjną, z zastosowaniem kolumienek, w stosunku do szczepów wzorcowych: Escherichia coli ATCC 35218, Listeria monocytogenes serotyp 1/2a (KMSiFŻC), Yersinia entercolitica (PCM 1919), Salmonella enteritidis (ATCC 130764), Bacillus cereus (PCM 2019), Enterococcus faecalis (ATTC 29212), Staphylococcus aureus (ATTC 25923), Saccharomyces cerevisiae (ŁOCK 14), Candida albicans (KMSiFŻC). Stwierdzono, że napoje deklarowane jako pasteryzowane (K7 - K12) były pozbawione mikroorganizmów z analizowanych grup. W pozostałych produktach komercyjnych dominującym mikroorganizmem były bakterie Acetobacter sp., których liczba zawierała się w przedziale 6 × 106 ÷ 1,1 × 107 jtk/ml. W napoju doświadczalnym wykazano drożdże w ilości 6,5 × 105 jtk/ml. Odczyn pH produktów był charakterystyczny i nie przekraczał 4,3. Zawartość antocyjanów we wszystkich napojach pochodzących z handlu wahała się między 0,2 ÷ 0,3 mg/dl, natomiast w próbie doświadczalnej było ich ponad dwa razy więcej. Zawartość polifenoli oraz zdolność przeciwutleniająca prób były zróżnicowane i nie stwierdzono ich korelacji z pochodzeniem produktu. Głównym czynnikiem warunkującym zdolność napojów kombucha do inhibicji bakterii potencjalnie chorobotwórczych dla człowieka jest obecność kwasów organicznych. Żaden z badanych napojów nie wykazywał antagonizmu w stosunku do testowanych drożdży.

In this study, the potential antimicrobial activity of plasma-activated tap water (PAW) was evaluated against Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Candida albicans. For this, PAW was prepared in a gliding arc plasma system using two treatment conditions: stagnant water and water stirring by a magnetic stirrer, called moving water. Subsequently, their oxidation-reduction potential (ORP), pH, electrical conductivity (σ), and total dissolved solids (TDS) were monitored in different areas of the sample divided according to the depth of the beaker. It was observed that PAW obtained in dynamic conditions showed a more uniform acidity among the evaluated areas with pH 3.53 and ORP of 215 mV. Finally, standardized suspensions of Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 6538), Escherichia coli (ATCC 10799), and Candida albicans (SC 5314) were treated with PAW, and the reduction of viable cells determined the antimicrobial effect. Our results indicate that the tap water, activated by plasma treatment using gliding arc, is an excellent inactivation agent in the case of Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. On the other hand, no significant antimicrobial activity was achieved for Candida albicans.

Pantoea Ananatis

Antibiotic resistance is one of the most important global problems currently confronting the world. Different biomedical applications of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have indicated them to be promising antimicrobial agents. In the present study, extracellular extract of an endophytic bacterium, Pantoea ananatis, was used for synthesis of AgNPs. The synthesized AgNPs were characterized by UV–Vis spectroscopy, FTIR, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDX), and Zeta potential. The antimicrobial potential of the AgNPs against pathogenic Staphylococcus aureus subsp. aureus (ATCC 11632), Bacillus cereus (ATCC 10876), Escherichia coli (ATCC 10536), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (ATCC 10145) and Candida albicans (ATCC 10231), and multidrug resistant (MDR) Streptococcus pneumoniae (ATCC 700677), Enterococcus faecium (ATCC 700221) Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 33592) Escherichia coli (NCTC 13351) was investigated. The synthesized spherical-shaped AgNPs with a size range of 8.06 nm to 91.32 nm exhibited significant antimicrobial activity at 6 μg/disc concentration against Bacillus cereus (ATCC 10876) and Candida albicans (ATCC 10231) which were found to be resistant to conventional antibiotics. The synthesized AgNPs showed promising antibacterial efficiency at 10 µg/disc concentration against the MDR strains. The present study suggests that AgNPs synthesized by using the endophytic bacterium P. ananatis are promising antimicrobial agent.
