Phenolic compounds, antioxidant and antimicrobial properties of the wild cherry (Prunus avium L.) stem
The aim of this study was to determine the total phenolic content, evaluate antioxidant propertie and antimicrobial potential, and identify phenolic compounds in alcoholic and aqueous extracts of the wild cherry (Prunus avium L.) stems collected in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Alcoholic extracts...

| description | The aim of this study was to determine the total phenolic content, evaluate
antioxidant propertie and antimicrobial potential, and identify phenolic
compounds in alcoholic and aqueous extracts of the wild cherry (Prunus avium
L.) stems collected in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Alcoholic extracts had higher
contents of phenolic and flavonoid components, as well as the antioxidant and
ferric reducing antioxidant capacity in comparison to aqueous extracts. All
extracts were characterized by HPLC analysis. Furthermore, for the first
time, the antimicrobial properties of wild cherry stem extracts were
evaluated. Quercetin and (+)-catechin were the main compounds identified in
the alcoholic extract, followed by chlorogenic acid and rutin. Quercetin was
also the major component detected in aqueous extracts. Besides, alcoholic
extract showed better antibacterial properties against Staphylococcus aureus
as a representative gram-positive bacteria than infusion, whereas none of the
samples showed antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli and fungus
Candida albicans. |
