Antibacterial potential of extracts of leaves of Parrotia persica

Abstract: Ethanol, methanol, chloroform, petroleum ether and aqueous extracts of leaves of Parrotia persica were evaluated for antibacterial activity. The zone of inhibition varied from 13 to 22 mm. The highest inhibittion was obtained with methanol and ethanol. Chloroform and petroleum ether extracts did not show any activity. The minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) value of the methanol extract for the test bacteria ranged between 3.12 and 6.25 mg/ml and that of ethanol extract ranged between 6.25 and 12.5 mg/ml.

“…In light of reports on the pharmaceutical applications of natural compounds belonging to the Hamamelidaceae family as anti-inflammatory and anti-aging drugs [ 30 , 32 ], we set out to elucidate the potential of P. persica and its main active metabolites to promote wound healing. When phytoprofiling the species, we found 25 components, including several well characterized compounds of quercetin, myricetin, and kaempherol.…”

“…acetone, petroleum ether and benzyl ethyl acetate of the leaves of Galinisoga ciliate have strong property against Bacillus subtilis (Poonkothai et al, 2005). The bactericidal potential of Parrotia persican leaves was tested against Yersinia enterocolitica and Yersinia enterocolitica , the MIC values were found to be 750 ppm and 1000 pmm respectively (Mohammad et al, 2007). Furthermore, the author and his friends tested the parkiajavanica medicinal plant bark against three different bacterial strains.…”
