Microorganisms that live in association with marine invertebrates are able to produce a compound similar  to those produced by marine invertebrates and are thought to be potential as bioactive materials. Supplement  extracts from the Photobacterium phosphoreum bacterial culture have been shown to have antibacterial activity. The purpose of this study was to determine the anti-bacterial activity of the chloroform extract of Photobacterium  phosphoreum biomass against pathogenic bacteria Bacillus substilis, Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella sp. and  Escherichia coli. The extraction process was carried out by the liquid-liquid extraction method. Fractionation was  performed using Open Column Chromatography (KKT). The antibacterial activity test was conducted by the agar diffusion method according to Kirby-Bauer. The results showed that for the antibacterial activity test of crude  extract, the largest inhibition zone diameter occurred in Escherichia coli with a concentration of 50 µg / disk at 24 h incubation, namely (9.80 ± 0.75 mm), while the smallest inhibition zone diameter occurred in Salmonella sp. by  giving a concentration of 10 µg / disk at an incubation time of 48 hours, namely (6.03 ± 0.05) mm. Of the 6  fractions resulting from crude extract fractionation, it was known that fraction 5 was the most active fraction and  inhibited the growth of the tested bacteria. The largest inhibition zone diameter occurred in Escherichia coli (9.83  ± 0.28) mm, while the smallest inhibition zone diameter occurred in Salmonella sp. (8.63 ± 0.20 mm)

Abstract Background Dental caries and periodontal disease are the most common chronic infectious oral diseases in the world. Acacia nilotica was commonly known in Sudan as Garad or Sunt has a wide range of medicinal uses. In the present study, antibacterial activity of oral bacteria (Streptococcus sobrinus and Porphyromonas gingivalis), inhibitory activity against glucosyltransferase (GTF) enzyme and antioxidant activity were assayed for methanolic crude extract of A. nilotica bark and its fractions. Methods Methanoilc crude extract of A. nilotica bark was applied to a Sephadex LH-20 column and eluted with methanol, aqueous methanol, and finally aqueous acetone to obtain four fractions (Fr1- Fr4). Furthermore, the crude extract and fractions were subjected to analytical high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The crude extract and its fractions were assayed for antibacterial activity against S. sobrinus and P. gingivalis using a microplate dilution assay method to determine the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC), as well as GTF inhibition and antioxidant activity using ABTS radical scavenging method. Results Fractions (Fr1 and Fr2) exhibited MIC values of 0.3 mg/ml against the P. gingivalis. Additionally, Fr2 displayed MBC value of 1 mg/ml against two types of bacteria. Fr4 showed an especially potent GTF inhibitory activity with IC50 value of 3.9 μg/ml. Fr1 displayed the best antioxidant activity with IC50 value of 1.8 μg/ml. The main compound in Fr1 was identified as gallic acid, and Fr2 was mostly a mixture of gallic acid and methyl gallate. Conclusions The results obtained in this study provide some scientific rationale and justify the use of this plant for the treatment of dental diseases in traditional medicine. A. nilotica bark, besides their antibacterial potentiality and GTF inhibitory activity, it may be used as adjuvant antioxidants in mouthwashes. Further studies in the future are required to identify the rest of the active compounds.

Antibiotic resistance bacteria has become an increasing problem now today due to many factors. This study investigates the efficacy of Prismatomeris tetrandra K. Schum root extract as a new source of antibacterial activity for antibiotic resistant bacteria using agar well diffusion method. The results showed that S. aureus TISTR517 exhibited more sensitivity to P. tetrandra K. Schum root extract than other Gram-positive bacteria indicator strains. On the other hand, Gram-negative bacteria exhibited resistance to P. tetrandra K. Schum root extract. The study further showed the activity between P. tetrandra K. Schum root extract and gentamycin (10 µg), it revealed that MRSA142 was resistant to gentamycin (10µg) but sensitive to P. tetrandra K. Schum root extract. Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) was evaluated by using S. aureus TISTR517 and MRSA142 as indicator strains. The MIC value was 0.59 mg/mL and 1.17 mg/mL for S. aureus TISTR517 and MRSA142, respectively. MBC assay demonstrated that the MBC value was 9.75 mg/mL and 150 mg/mL for S. aureus TISTR517 and MRSA142 respectively. The mode of action was investigated with the presence of P. tetrandra K. Schum root extract in the culture broth. The action of P. tetrandra K. Schum root extract was revealed of bacteriostatic activity due to the Optical density (OD) at 600 nm and Colony-Forming Units (CFU) of indicator strains were continuously decreased.
