Antibacterial activity of some Turkish plant hydrosols

Bu çalışmada, 20 bitki örneğinden elde edilen hidrosollerin (Kekik, sumak, karanfil, ısırgan, melek otu, akasya, meşe, adaçayı, ardıç, biberiye, ekinezya, yeşil çay, reyhan, mersin, ceviz, defne, nane, altın otu, papatya ve sarı kantaron), özellikle tatlı su balıklarının bozulmasında rol oynayan Aeromonas hydrophila, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa ve Pseudomonas fluorescens üzerine in vitro antibakteriyel etkisi araştırılmıştır. Kekik ve karanfil, incelen tüm bakterilere karşı etkin bulunmuştur. Sonuç olarak bu bitki hidrosollerinin gıdaların bozulmaya karşı korunmalarında antimikrobiyel ajanlar olarak kullanılabilecekleri kanaatine varılmıştır.

Türkiye'de yetişen bazı bitkilere ait hidrosollerin antibakteriyel etkisi

The in vitro antibacterial activity of the hydrosols of (distilled plant water) twenty plant samples (Thyme, sumach, clove, nettle, angelica, acacia, oak, sage, juniper, rosemary, echinacea, green tea, basil, myrtle, walnut, laurel, mint, strawflower, daisy, hypericum) were tested on Aeromonas hydrophila, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Pseudomonas fluorescens which play role especially at spoilage of freshwater fish. Thyme and clove were effective against all bacteria. Consequently, it is likely that, these plant hydrosols may be used as antimicrobial agents to prevent the deterioration of food products.
