Antibacterial Activity and Total Phenolic Content of Sakarca (Ornithogalum umbellatum) Plant Growing in Ordu
Öz
In this study, the chemical composition, antimicrobial activities and total phenolic content of
sacchara plants obtained from different regions of Ordu province were investigated. According to
this, while the amount of ash content, pH and acidity values of Sakarca plant were considerably
different according to the regions, statistically significant difference was not observed between
the amounts of dry matter. The total amount of phenolic contents (TPC) varied considerably from
region to region. The highest TPC was determined in plant number S1 with 51.60 mg GAE 100
g
-1
and the lowest TPC in plant number S7 with 28.35 mg GAE 100 g-1
. Antibacterial test results
indicate that extracts of eight samples are effective against S. aureus, a gram (+) bacterium, while
the effects of samples S3 and S9 are relatively low. Only 2 of the samples (S9 and S10) showed
antimicrobial activity against E. coli, none of the samples tested against Listeria monocytogenes
showed antimicrobial activity. These results show that Ornithogalum umbellatum wild plant
species extract can be applied as a natural food and functional food ingredient in food.
