Effect of Tannin Fruit Extracts on Some Bacterial Species
Keywords:
Tannin fruit , E.coli , K. pneumonia, GlycosidesAbstract
Background: The results of the chemical detection showed that the active groups in the fruit extracts of the tannin plant contained glycosides, saponins, flavonoids, tannins, terpene and phenols.
Aim: To evaluate Tannins inhibition activity against Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae .
Materials and methods: A number of aqueous, alcoholic and acetone fruit extracts of Tannins were prepared, and their effect on inhibition of E.coli and K.pneumonia was tested. Four concentrations were used [10, 20, 30, 40 (mg / ml)].
Results: The current study aims to determine the effect of the aqueous and alcoholic tannins plant on some bacterial species The results showed that the effect of aqueous and alcoholic extracts against the species E.coli and K. pneumoniae The effectiveness of the biological agent increased with increasing concentration used, as it was found that the aqueous extract was highly effective, as the average diameter of inhibition reached 22.0mm for K. pneumoniae and was equal to the alcoholic extract for bacteria. The concentration was 40 mg/ml compared to the antibiotic in which the average diameter of inhibition was 5.14 mm. While the effect of the alcoholic extract was very high compared to the aqueous extract and the antibiotic, as it reached 24.0 and 27.6mm at concentrations of 30 and 40 mg/ml, while the diameter of inhibition for E.coli reached the average diameter of inhibition for bacteria. For the same bacteria, 17.3and 0 20 mm at concentrations of 30 and 40 mg/ml for the aqueous extract.
Conclusion: Tannin extracts show antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae .
