Natural extracts made from fresh plant material and biologically active compounds isolated from different plant species that have been used in folk medicine for centuries, may present valuable sources for production of novel natural preservatives and medicinal preparations. White lily-Lilium candidum is also used, for a long period of time, in folk medicine for healing of burns and frostbites, otitis and rhinitis as well as balm for washing wounds and cuts. Roots, leaves and flowers have medical properties. Nevertheless, there is little information in literature related to antibacterial effect of white lily extract on certain pathogens and there is a need to determine the justification for its use in traditional medicine. Antibacterial activity of White lily extract on five reference cultures (Escherichia coli WDCM 00090, Listeria monocytogenes WDCM 00020, Salmonella enterica WDCM 00030, Pseudomonas aeruginosa WDCM 00024) and seven bacterial cultures (Escherichia coli, Providencia stuartii, Pseudomonas spp. ß-hemolytic Escherichia coli, coagulase positive staphylococcus, Staphylococcus aureus, group D Sreptococcus) from Laboratory for Microbiology, Public Veterinary Institute of Republic of Srpska "Dr. Vaso Butozan", Banja Luka, were examined in this study. Results confirmed that white lily extract show certain antibacterial activity against examined pathogens used in this study. Antibacterial activity of White lily extract was in the range from 5.33 mm to 18.88 mm depending of bacterial strain and concentration of white lily extract.

The film-forming potential of isolate of seed polysaccharide fromCassia fistulawas investigated. Increasing the glycerol concentration in the film increased elongation at break, film solubility and water vapor permeability but decreased tensile strength (TS). The film impregnated with the acetone extract ofAtractylodes lanceawas assessed for inhibition ofEscherichia coliandStaphylococcus aureus. The obtained results showed that the films exhibited antibacterial activity against both bacterial strains. Disc-diffusion assay revealed that the film resulted in a larger inhibition zone around the film onStaphylococcus aureusthan it did onEscherichia coliat the same extract concentrations (0.1 to 0.9 wt %). It can be seen that the film has satisfactory physical and antibacterial properties.

The essential oil obtained by hydrodistillation method from plants of three varieties Agastache aurantiaca, cultivated on the Republic of Belarus were investigated. Some morphobiometric parameters of plants 'Tango', 'Apricot Sprite' and 'Fragrant Delight' and oil yields were determined. Using the technique of gas-liquid chromatography essential oil components were identified and determined. The main components of the essential oil from 'Tango' and 'Fragrant Delight' plants were menton (~ 53 and ~ 65 v/v % respectively) and pulegon (~ 36 and ~ 25 v/v % respectively). The samples of 'Apricot' Sprite' essential oil were rich in isomentone (~ 46 v/v %) and pulegon (~ 41 v/v %). All tested essential oils contained (+)-menton and (+)-pulegon enantiomeric forms only. The antibacterial activity of dimethylsulfoxide and ethanolic essential oil solutions against Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella alony, Bacillus subtilis, Clostridium sp., Escherichia coli Hfr H, Pseudomonas aeruginosa was proved. Ethanol solutions of essential oils at the concentrations 0.001–0.1 v/v % had significant bactericidal activity. A correlation between the composition of the essential oil and their antibacterial properties was established.

Proteins And Peptides

During passage through the epididymis, sperm interact with secreted epididymal proteins that promote maturation, including the acquisition of motility and fertilization competence. Viewed previously as distinct from sperm maturation, host defence capabilities are now recognized functions of the human epididymis 2 (HE2) family of sperm-binding proteins. We analysed the potent dose and time-dependent bactericidal activity of recombinant HE2α, HE2β1 and HE2β2 and found that the full-length proteins (10 μg/ml or ~1 μM) caused more than a 50% decrease in Escherichia coli colony forming units within 15 min. By contrast, human β-defensin-1, at a similar concentration, required more than 90 min to exhibit similar antibacterial activity. The epididymis-specific lipocalin, LCN6, failed to kill bacteria. Higher concentrations (25–100 μg/ml) of HE2 proteins and a longer duration of treatment resulted in near total inhibition of bacterial growth. The C-terminal peptides of HE2α, HEβ1 and HEβ2 proteins exhibited antibacterial activity similar to their full-length counterparts, indicating that the antibacterial activity of HE2 proteins resides in these C-terminal regions. Antibacterial activities of HE2 proteins and peptides were slightly inhibited by NaCl concentrations of up to 150 mM, while human β-defensin-1 activity was nearly eliminated. Reduction and alkylation of disulphide bonds in HE2 proteins and their C-terminal peptides abolished their antibacterial activity. Consistent with the ability to kill bacteria, full-length HE2 proteins and C-terminal peptides caused rapid dose-dependent permeabilization of outer and cytoplasmic E. coli membranes. A much longer exposure time was required for human β-defensin-1-mediated permeabilization of membranes, suggesting a possible difference in mode of action compared with the HE2 antibacterial peptides.

The antibacterial properties of differently copper and cobalt amino acids complexes on agar plates was investigated in the present study. The antibacterial activity of amino acid complexes was evaluated against on three bacteria strains (Escherichia coli, Bacillus cereus, Micrococcus luteus). Generally, the amino acids complexes were mainly active against gram-positive organisms, species like Micrococcus luteus being the most susceptible strain tested. It was registered a moderate antibacterial activity against Bacillus cereus. The microorganisms Escherichia coli, which are already known to be multi-resistant to drugs, were also resistant to the amino acids complexes but also to the free salts tested. Escherichia coli were susceptible only to the CoCl2 and copper complex with phenylalanine. The complexes with leucine and histidine seem to be more active than the parent free ligand against one or more bacterial species. Moderate activity was registered in the case of complexes with methionine and phenylalanine. From the complexes tested less efficient antibacterial activity was noted in the case of complexes with lysine and valine. These results show that cobalt and copper complexes have an antibacterial activity and suggest their potential application as antibacterial agents.

Glauconite, a natural aluminosilicate, exhibits good sorption properties, is an affordable, cheap material, and has the prospect of being used in construction, ecology, medicine, cosmetology, animal husbandry, poultry farming, agriculture, etc. An urgent task is to study the sorption activity of glauconite in the Beloozersky deposit in the Saratov region in relation to biologically active substances for the creation of antimicrobial composites. The elemental composition and surface morphology of glauconite grains are determined. The sorption capacity of glauconite with respect to the pharmaceutical preparation rivanol based on acridine dye and the degree of its extraction from aqueous solutions were determined by spectrophotometry. A composite was obtained by sorption immobilization and analyzed for antimicrobial activity in relation to the standard strains of Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 6538 P and Escherichia coli ATCC 25922. An improvement in the antimicrobial properties of the immobilized preparation was revealed in comparison with an aqueous solution. The best effect of the composite in relation to Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 6538 P was determined compared to Escherichia coli ATCC 25922. The results of these studies can find practical application in veterinary medicine, poultry farming, agriculture, medicine, etc.
