Abstract

Due to their multifunctionality and the numerous fields of applicability, insects are extensively studied today for both their biomedical and nutritional properties. In the current study the cytogenotoxic and antimicrobial potential of ethanol and methanol extracts of Nezara viridula (Linnaeus 1758) was evaluated using the Allium test, respectively the disk diffusion test. A mitostimulatory effect of the extracts of N. viridula and a variation of the cytogenotoxic activity of the extracts in a gender-dependent manner was noticed. As well, significant variations of the mitotic index were determined through the type of solvent used and the concentration of the extracts. High frequency chromosomal aberrations and mitotic abnormalities were recorded with high concentration ethanolic extracts. Following the testing of four standard bacterial strains and two standard yeast strains, a slightly antimicrobial activity was observed when compared to control. The use of invasive species in such studies opens up new perspectives on the potential of organisms considered harmful.

Nezara viridula (L.) (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Pentatomidae) 酒精提取物的细胞毒性和抗菌作用

由于昆虫的多功能性和众多适用领域，如今人们对其生物医学和营养特性进行了广泛研究。在本研究中，使用薤白试验和盘扩散试验分别评估了Nezara viridula（林奈 1758）乙醇和甲醇提取物的细胞毒性和抗菌潜力。结果表明，霓裳羽衣草提取物具有有丝分裂刺激作用，其细胞毒性活性的变化与性别有关。此外，所使用溶剂的类型和提取物的浓度也会导致有丝分裂指数的明显变化。高浓度乙醇提取物可导致高频率的染色体畸变和有丝分裂异常。在对四种标准细菌菌株和两种标准酵母菌株进行测试后，与对照组相比，观察到了轻微的抗菌活性。在此类研究中使用入侵物种为研究被认为有害的生物的潜力开辟了新的视角。

期刊介绍： ACS Applied Bio Materials is an interdisciplinary journal publishing original research covering all aspects of biomaterials and biointerfaces including and beyond the traditional biosensing, biomedical and therapeutic applications. The journal is devoted to reports of new and original experimental and theoretical research of an applied nature that integrates knowledge in the areas of materials, engineering, physics, bioscience, and chemistry into important bio applications. The journal is specifically interested in work that addresses the relationship between structure and function and assesses the stability and degradation of materials under relevant environmental and biological conditions.
