Antimicrobial activities of deoiled seed kernel (mechanically pressed), fruit coat and seed coat of Jatropha curcas Linn. collected from two regions (Bannu and Peshawar) of Pakistan were investigated. The antimicrobial activities were carried out against Klebsiella pneumoniae (ATCC 43816), Escherichia coli (ATCC 10536), Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 6538), Bacillus subtilis (ATCC 6633) and two clinical fungal isolates Aspergillus fumigatus and Candida albicans using agar well diffusion method. The antibacterial activities of Peshawar sample were found to be higher than Bannu, against selected strains. While antifungal activities of both samples were similar. Highest zone of inhibition 31.5 ± 0.7 mm was exhibited by n-hexane extract of deoiled seed kernel of Peshawar sample against Bacillus subtilis (ATCC 6633). The minimum inhibitory concentration of ethanolic extracts of deoiled seed kernel and seed coat of Peshawar sample was 31.25 - 25 mg/ml. Whereas, minimum inhibitory concentration of ethanolic and n-hexane extracts of Bannu sample was 62.5 - 125 mg/ml. The results suggested that antimicrobial potential of J. curcas Linn. varied with geographical distribution. The investigation of different varieties of medicinal plants belonging to the same species will greatly enhance the chances of best pharmaceuticals discovery. Bangladesh J.

This study aimed to evaluate some probiotic properties of Bacillus subtilis ATCC 6051a. The phenotypic profile, resistance to pH by simulated gastric juice (pH 2 and 3), bile salts by simulated intestinal fluid, survivability (%), heat and antibiotics tolerance were investigated. The strain is a Gram-positive, rod-shaped bacteria, arranged in short chains or in small irregular pairs with the ability to produce spores. Good viability at pH 2 and 3, with a survival of more than ≥80%, was found. In the presence of bile salts 0.3%, over 4 h, the strain exhibited a survival ≥85%. At 80°C, for 120 min., the strain showed good growth (9.04 log CFU/ml). Results were sensitive to most antibiotics, with a highly susceptible (between 16 – 25 mm) to erythromycin, clindamycin, amoxicillin, chloramphenicol, ciprofloxacin, amikacin and kanamycin. The strain was found to be sensitive to vancomycin, gentamicin, and tetracycline. The present research demonstrated that Bacillus subtilis ATCC 6051a can survive under gastrointestinal conditions, which involves them to future in vitro and in vivo probiotic studies.

El empleo de bio-controladores en la agricultura beneficia los aspectos fisiológicos en plantas, a diferencia de la constante aplicación de pesticidas en el cultivo del banano ha ocasionado la pérdida de la sensibilidad en M. fijiensis, reduciendo la microbiota del suelo. El objetivo se enfocó en caracterizar el potencial antagónico de las PGPR en inhibición de germinación de ascósporas y desarrollo micelial de M. fijiensis. Se realizaron cultivos monospóricos de M. fijiensis e identificado por PCR. Se evaluaron los extractos celulares de Pseudomonas putida PB3-6, Klebsiella variicola BO3-4, Enterobacter asburiae BA4-19, Serratia marcescens PM3-8, Enterobacter asburiae PM3-14, Pseudomonas protegens CHA0, Pseudomonas fluorescens WCS417, Pseudomonas veronii R4 y Bacillus subtilis ATCC 5540 para sus evaluaciones antagonistas: a) Inhibición del tubo germinativo de las ascósporas al 2% y b) Desarrollo micelial al (2 y 10 %). La PCR empleado en la identificación de M. fijiensis se confirma el producto de amplificación de 1018 pb. El factor antagónico de los extractos celulares al 2 % de PM3-14 y CHA0 inhibe sobre el 80 % al desarrollo de los tubos germinativos. La inhibición al desarrollo micelial del extracto celular al 2 %, de CHA0 logró una efectividad del 54 % y las cepas (PM3-8, PM3-14 y BA4-19) con (32, 26 y 26 %). Al 10 % del extracto de la cepa PM3-8 inhibe el desarrollo micelial con niveles de turbidez de 0,47 (OD600nm). El empleo de estos bio-controladores en la agricultura ofrecerá una alternativa para beneficiar en la reducción del uso de agroquímicos
