Antibacterial activities of aqueous, acetone, ethanol and methanol extracts of fruits of Helicteres isora (Mororphali) were studied. The fruit aqueous extracts of H. isora showed prominent antibacterial activities against E. coli, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Salmonella typhimurium and Proteus vulgaris; moderate activity against Enterobacter aerogenes, Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella typhi and least activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The aqueous extract showed maximal, the ethanol and methanol extract moderate and acetone extracts least antibacterial activities. Phytochemical screening revealed the presence of carbohydrates, anthraquinon glycosides, proteins, tannin and phenolic compounds and steroids These antibacterial properties supports its traditional use of fruits of H. isora in the treatment of enteric or diarrhoeal infections.
研究了刺蒴麻(锦葵科)果实的水提取物、丙酮提取物、乙醇提取物和甲醇提取物的抗菌活性。刺蒴麻果实的水提取物对大肠杆菌、表皮葡萄球菌、鼠伤寒沙门氏菌和普通变形杆菌表现出显著的抗菌活性;对产气肠杆菌、金黄色葡萄球菌、伤寒沙门氏菌有中等活性,对铜绿假单胞菌活性最低。水提取物显示出最大的抗菌活性,乙醇提取物和甲醇提取物活性中等,丙酮提取物抗菌活性最低。植物化学筛选显示存在碳水化合物、蒽醌苷、蛋白质、单宁、酚类化合物和类固醇。这些抗菌特性支持了刺蒴麻果实在治疗肠道或腹泻感染方面的传统用途。
