Abstract
Sedum spurium M. Bieb. (Crassulaceae) is a common ornamental plant, whereas, Melampyrum arvense L. var. elatius Boiss. (Orobanchaceae) is a semi-parasitic plant and grows naturally in the fields. In this study, the dichloromethane and ethyl acetate extracts of M. arvense and S. spurium were evaluated for their in vitro antioxidant and antimicrobial activities. The antioxidant activity was evaluated by DPPH•-ABTS• methods. The antimicrobial activity of S. spurium and M. arvense extracts was determined using the in vitro broth microdilution assay against following human pathogenic strains; Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 6538, Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 29212, Escherichia coli NRLL B-3008, Helicobacter pylori ATCC 43504, Mycobacterium smegmatis ATCC 25291, Mycobacterium avium ssp. avium and Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 10145.
期刊介绍:
Acta Pharmaceutica Sciencia (Acta Pharm. Sci.), formerly known as Bulletin of Pharmacy and Acta Pharmaceutica Turcica is a peer-reviewed scientific journal publishing current research and reviews covering all fields of pharmaceutical sciences since 1953. The original studies accepted for publication must be unpublished work and should contain data that have not been published elsewhere as a whole or a part. The reviews must provide critical evaluation of the state of knowledge related with the subject. All manuscripts has to be written in clear and concise English. Starting from 2016, the journal will be issued quarterly both in paper and on-line formates also publish special issues for national or international scientific meetings and activities in the coverage field.
