Screening of Bactericidal Activity of Phytocompositions and Their Components

Abstract

Objective of the research: create small-compound phytocompositions with an accessible raw material base. Screening of the bactericidal action of phytocompositions and their components. Materials and methods: standard methods of microbiology used Results: Three phytocompositions based on Filipendula ulmaria (L.) Maxim. have been created, allowing to obtain improved organoleptic properties, reduce the number of deficient components, and expand the range of antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-ulcerogenic compositions based on plant materials of the Republic of Belarus. Compositions are obtained by simple mixing of air-dried plant components in the desired weight ratio. Brew in boiling water, keep for several minutes and consume in hot or chilled form. The bactericidal action of three phytocompositions and their plant components was screened using five cultures of test microorganisms as an example. It was found that the studied aqueous extracts had a dif-ferent degree of bactericidal action. The bactericidal action was most pronounced in relation to the culture of Bacillus subtilis. Sarcina lutea was the most resistant colony to the bactericidal action of the plant extracts. The maximum bactericidal action of all the studied samples was established for Filipendula ulmaria (L.) Maxim. Conclusion. Three phytocompositions of Filipendula ulmaria (L.) Maxim. have been created by the authors of the article. Improved organoleptic properties, decrease the number of scarce plant components, increase the number of phytocompositions that have an antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and antiulcer-ogenic effect with plants which grow in Belarus. Bactericidal action of phytocompositions and their com-ponents has been screned by using five kinds of test microorganisms.
