Plumeria Rubra

Petroleum ether, carbon tetrachloride, chloroform and ethyl acetate extracts of Plumeria rubra leaves were studied for their antimicrobial activities against eleven human pathogenic bacteria, viz., Shigella dysenteriae, S. sonnei, Salmonella typhi, S. paratyphi, Bacillus subtilis, B. megaterium, B. cereus, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli and Vibrio cholerae and four human pathogenic fungi, viz., Aspergillus niger, A. ochraceus, A. ustus and Candida albicans using disc diffusion and poisoned food method, respectively. Chloroform and ethyl acetate extract exhibited moderate to good antibacterial and antifungal activity against all the pathogens tested. The ethyl acetate extracts exhibited the largest zone of inhibition (25 mm in diameter with 2000 mg/disc extract) against E. coli. The highest inhibition of fungal radial mycelial growth (62.00% with 100 mg extract/ml medium) was recorded against A. ustus with ethyl acetate extract. The MICs were determined by broth macrodilution technique. The ethyl acetate extract exhibited the lowest MIC (750 mg/ml) against E. coli. However, for fungi the lowest MIC was 500 mg/ml against A. ustus with the same extract. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/cujbs.v3i1.13409 The Chittagong Univ. J. B. Sci.,Vol. 3(1&2):87-94, 2008

Petroleum ether extract, chloroform extract, ethyl acetate extract, ethyl alcohol extract and a pure compound 6-methyl-5-cyclodecen-1-ol obtained from aerial parts of Borreria articularis were studied for their antimicrobial activities against eleven human pathogenic bacteria and four human pathogenic fungi using disc diffusion and poisoned food method respectively. Ethyl acetate extract, ethanol extracts and the pure compound 6-methyl-5-cyclodecen-1-ol exhibited good antibacterial and antifungal activity against all the pathogens tested herein. The ethanol extract and 6-methyl-5-cyclodecen-1-ol exhibited the largest zone of inhibition (20 mm) at a concentration of 2,000 ìg/disc against Escheichia coli and Vibrio cholerae respectively. In case of fungi, the crude extract of ethanol and the pure compound exhibited the highest inhibition 53.5 and 52.0% of fungal radial mycelial growth (with 100 ìg/ml medium) against Aspergillus ustus and A. ochraceus respectively. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) and minimum fungicidal concentration (MFC) of the pure compound 6-methyl-5-cyclodecen-1-ol were determined by broth macrodilution method. The lowest MIC (500 μg/ml) and MBC (1,000 μg/ml) were determined against V. cholerae. However, for fungi, the lowest MIC (750 μg/ml) and MFC (1,500 μg/ml) were recorded against A. ochraceus. The results suggest that active antimicrobial agent(s) present in the extracts of B. articularis may have potential for the treatment of bacterial and fungal infections.

Streptomyces Sp

To face newly generated diseases, search for new, safe and effective bioactive molecules is highly warranted. The marine microbial flora may be a potential source of such molecules. The present study was designed to isolate marine microorganisms (AIAH-1 to AIAH-29) from the soil of mangrove forest Sundarbans, Bangladesh by serial dilution method using isolation media. Among them, AIAH-10 was selected for further study due to its promising antibacterial activity (done by streak plate and plug technique method) against a series of pathogenic bacteria. On the basis of morphological, cultural and biochemical analysis, the strain AIAH-10 belongs to Streptomyces sp. Secondary metabolites of the strain was obtained by small scale fermentation process. Antifungal activity of the extracts was performed by disc diffusion method. The crude ethyl acetate extract (50µg/disc) showed significant antifungal activity against Aspergillus niger, Candida albicans and Saccharromyces cerevaceae (14, 12 and 10 mm zone of inhibition respectively). No hemolytic activity was found of the extracts towards the human erythrocytes. During cytotoxic study against brine shrimp nauplii (Artemia salina), a dose dependent mortality rate was observed. A 100% larva mortality rate was recorded in 40µg/ml and more where as LC50 was found to be 6.61µg/ml.Bangladesh Pharmaceutical Journal 19(1): 37-43, 2016
