Investigation of Antimicrobial Effect of Diplotaenia turcica Plant Growing in Van Province
Abstract
Developing defense mechanisms against antibiotics and derivatives of microorganisms that cause infection has led to the search for new antibiotics. Many antibiotics have been isolated from plants so far. Therefore, scientists have made numerous studies on plants for the discovery of new antibiotics and continue to do so. In this study, the antimicrobial effect of extracts of Diplotaenia turcica was investigated, plants were collected from Van Çatak district. The roots and topsoil parts of Diplotaenia turcica were separated and extracted. The samples were dissolved in alcohol and ether. The pathogens used in this study were Escherichia coli ATCC 25952, Bacillus subtilis ATCC 6633, Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27853, Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 29212, Candida albicans ATTC 90028. The effects of extracts on pathogens were determined using disc diffusion method. When the zones of plant extracts were examined, it was seen that the extract obtained from root parts of Diplotaenia turcica showed the highest inhibitory effect against Bacillus subtilis and the extract obtained from the topsoil parts of Diplotaenia turcica showed the highest inhibitory effect against Escherichia coli.
