The Effect of Some Fresh Water Algea Extracts in the Inhibition of the Growth of Some Microorganisim That Cause Food Spoilage

Abstract: This study was carried out to isolate, identified and  study two types of Iraqi fresh water  algae Scenedesmus sp. and Oscellatoria sp also determine some of their  active compounds that play an important role as antioxidants and antimicrobial againsts some bacteria. Three types of bacteria Salmonella sp, Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus sp that cause spoilage for food were tested. Antimicrobial activity of ethanolic extracts for both algae were examined  toward tested bacteria. Four treatments were prepare… Show more

“…Food spoilage is a process in which foods to be undesirable, unacceptable and un useful for human consumption due to changes in almost many characteristics, also it is clear that spoiled foods may be un safe to eat specially when its contain pathogens or a toxin present (18). Many problems were reported that we cannot use chemical preservatives products safely any more due to carcinogenic effects of these chemicals, thus the requirement has been increased for natural preservatives (27,28).…”

“…Also final extract composition depends on extraction solvent used for extract preparation, mainly because of its polarity. Moreover the contents of total flavonoids vary among myrtle parts (2,17,19). The main groups of phenolic compounds are flavonoids, phenolic acids, tannins, stilbenes and lignans (22).…”

“…In this experiment Broth micro dilution method was performed, in two fold dilutions of antibiotics were done in broth media and broth was inoculated with 10 6 CFU/ml of the tested organisms (2). After incubation for (18)(19)(20)(21)(22)(23)(24) hrs, the MIC was determined as concentration in which no visible growth was observed (4).…”
