| description | Introduction: As an alternative to antibiotics, medical plants have been utilized and some plants are being used as antimicrobial agents. It is aimed in this study to extract the kind Sideritis öztürkii Aytaç & Aksoy, which is endemic to Konya Province, and to determine antimicrobial effects of the kind by use of liquid microdilution technique.
Materials and Methods: The plant material was collected from its natural habitat. The antimicrobial effect of the extract against standard isolates such as Escherichia coli ATCC 25922, E. coli ATCC 35218, Klebsiella pneumoniae ATCC 700603, Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27853, Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 29213 and Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 29212 was investigated by liquid microdilution method, and minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) were determined. Since the highest antimicrobial effect of the extract was detected against S. aureus ATCC 29213, the antimicrobial effect against S. aureus isolates isolated from clinical specimens in Selcuk University Medical Faculty Microbiology Laboratory was also investigated by the same method.
Results: The leaf extract of Sideritis öztürkii was more effective than the flower extract against standart isolates. In particular, it had the highest antimicrobial activity against S. aureus ATCC 29213 strain. The application of leaf extract to 111 clinical isolates of S. aureus revealed that the highest antimicrobial effect was observed in 1.56 mg/mL and 3.125 mg/mL.
Conclusion: It is thought that different antimicrobial agents may be obtained from endemic plant species such as Sideritis öztürkii Aytaç & Aksoy. It is thought that plant extracts can be used as antimicrobial agents that are more effective in the fight against infections, natural, environment friendly, economic and health-free. |
