Antiglycation and Antimicrobial Activities of the Crude Extract of Phlomis bracteosa

2010 
2 Abstract: In this study, the antiglycation, antibacterial and antifungal activities of Phlomis bracteosa (Labiatae) were investigated. Ethyl acetate (EtOAc) fraction showed 57.90% antiglycation activity against the protein glycation and chloroform (CHCl ) fraction showed 54.25% inhibitory potential, while an aqueous (H O) and 32 n-hexane fractions showed less than 50% inhibitory potential. The antibacterial effect of this plant was tested by agar well diffusion method and tested fractions (H O, EtOAc, CHCl and n-hexane) showed activity bacteria 23 Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis, Shigella flexenari, Staphylococcus aureu, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Salmonella typhi. Surprising tested fractions didn't show any antifungal activity.
