“…Another study reported significant growth inhibition of Candida albicans with extracts of four varieties of black currant ( Ribes nigrum ) at 0.4 to 250 mg mL − 1 [ 41 ]. However, according to another report, leaves and branches of eight Ribes species, including Ribes rubrum , did not show any significant inhibitory effect on Candida albicans and Candida parapsilosis [ 80 ]. Berries and leaves of seven cultivars of blackberry were extracted with methanol and screened against several microorganisms, including Aspergillus niger and Candida albicans .…”

Plants are a treasure trove of several important phytochemicals that are endowed with therapeutic and medicinal properties. Ribes rubrum L. (red currants) are seasonal berries that are widely consumed for their nutritional value and are known for their health benefits. Red currants are a rich source of secondary metabolites such as polyphenols, tocopherols, phenolic acids, ascorbic acid, and flavonoids. In this study, sunlight-mediated synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) was successfully accomplished within 9 min after adding the silver nitrate solution to the aqueous extract of red currant. The synthesised AgNPs were characterised with UV–Vis, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), dynamic light scattering (DLS), Fourier transform infrared spectrum (FTIR), and energy-dispersive X-ray spectrum (EDX). The efficacy of aqueous extracts of red currants and AgNPs in controlling the growth of some pathogenic fungi and bacteria was also investigated. The UV–visible (UV–Vis) spectrum displayed an absorption peak at 435 nm, which corresponded to the surface plasmon band. The strong silver signal on the EDX spectrum at 3 keV, authenticated the formation of AgNPs. The several peaks on the FTIR spectrum of the aqueous extract of red currant and the nanoparticles indicated the presence of some important functional groups such as amines, carbonyl compounds, and phenols that are vital in facilitating the process of capping and bioreduction, besides conferring stability to nanoparticles. The TEM microphotographs showed that the nanoparticles were well dispersed, roughly spherical, and the size of the nanoparticles ranged from 8 to 59 nm. The red currant silver nanoparticles were highly potent in inhibiting the growth and proliferation of some fungal and bacterial test isolates, especially Alternaria alternata, Colletotrichum musae, and Trichoderma harzianum. Based on the robust antifungal and antibacterial activity demonstrated in this study, red currant nanoparticles can be investigated as potential replacements for synthetic fungicides and antibiotics.

“…Staphylococcus aureus showed lower minimum inhibitory concentration values (15 to 500 μg mL − 1 ), followed by Enterococcus faecalis (62 to 500 μg mL − 1 ). Klebsiella pneumoniae and Escherichia coli , on the other hand, did not show any inhibitory activity [ 80 ].…”

“…However, better results were obtained in this study (Figure 1). Kendir et al (2016) were investigated the antibacterial activities of leaf and branch extracts of different Ribes species against various bacteria and reported that they showed activity against S. aureus. As a result of another study, they reported that some R. nigrum fresh fruits inhibited the growth of Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria (Cavanagh et al, 2003).…”

“…It is known that many parts of the plant, especially the fruit and leaves, are used in traditional treatment. For example, the leaves of the plant are used in the remedy of rheumatic diseases such as arthritis, in the elimination of respiratory and urinary system problems, and various injuries with insect bites (Kendir et al, 2016;Kendir et al, 2019). The extraction of phenolic compounds has been optimized for different parts of the Ribes nigrum (blackcurrant) plant and an efficient method has been developed for their separation by HPLC.…”

There is an expanding interest in medicinal and aromatic plants as a natural alternative to synthetic drugs, especially to antimicrobial agents due to the growing problem of antibiotic resistance. In recent years, a lot of reports have been published on the antimicrobial activity of the plant extracts. This study was used Lavandula angustifolia L., Mentha piperita L., and Ribes nigrum L. as plant materials. This study aims to test the plant extracts against oral bacteria. Its purpose is to produce directly comparable, quantitative, antimicrobial data, and in addition to containing very little information of the different extracts against oral pathogens. Disc diffusion method was studied for antimicrobial activity tests. Also, minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values were determined in this study. Additionally, the extracts were tested against stable 2,2-diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazyl-hydrate• (DPPH•) free radicals for non-enzymatic antioxidant activity. This study was used Trolox (6-hydroxy-2,5,7,8-tetra-methyl chroman-2-carboxylic acid) as standard. The extracts showed different inhibition zones against bacteria. The methanol extract of Lavandula showed the highest inhibition zone against the oral pathogen MBKK5. The positive control was penicillin (10 μg). The lowest MIC value was taken at 6500 μg /ml concentration of the plant extracts. The highest DPPH• radical scavenging activity was found in Ribes nigrum extract as 36%. As a result, plant extracts have antibacterial and antioxidant potential.

“…In a study conducted in Turkey, the effect of plant extract on HSV-1 was investigated. As a result of the study, it was reported that the CPE (Cytopathogenic Effect) value of Ribes multiflorum was 15.62 μg/mL as a minimum and 31.25 μg/mL at the maximum [56]. In a study conducted in Iran, the effect of methanol extract of Veronica persica species on HSV-1 and HSV-2 was investigated.…”

The treatment of microbial infections has proven challenging for humans in recent years. Synthetic medications, such as antimicrobial agents, are used for treating these infections. Antimicrobials derived from natural sources have gained popularity as an alternative to manufactured medications due to their lack of adverse effects. Plants, which play a significant role in this setting, have historically served as a reliable natural defence against several pathogens. In this study, studies on plants used against viral diseases are mentioned. Studies on viruses that cause disease have been compiled in the literature. According to the findings, it has been reported in the literature that many different plant species are effective against herpes simplex virus (HSV-1, HSV-2), human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), influenza virus (A, B) and parainfluenza, Poliovirus, Astrovirus, Parvovirus, Sindbis virus (SINV), Feline calicivirus (FCV), Rhinovirus, Echovirus, Rotavirus, Bovine alphaherpesvirus 1 (BoHV-1), Reovirus, Vaccinia virus (VACV), Cardiovirus A (Encephalomyocarditis virus; EMCV), Coxsackie virus, Semliki forest, Measles virus, Newcastle disease virus (NDV), Coronavirus, Adenovirus (ADV-3, ADV-5, ADV-8, ADV -11), Canine distemper virus (CDV), Lumpy skin disease virus (LSDV), Hepatitis A, B, C virus and Enterovirus. To combat viruses, plants can be considered a potentially invaluable natural resource.
