摘要

The antimicrobial activity of amchur (dried pulp of unripe Mangifera indica) extract (50% ethanol) was tested against ten bacterial strains (7 Gram-positive and 3 Gram-negative) & seven fungi by agar well diffusion assays. The crude extract exhibited a broad spectrum of antibacterial activity inhibiting both the groups of bacteria. The extract was most effective against Staphylococcus aureus (26.0mm). Bacillus mycoides was found to be the most sensitive, with the lowest MIC of 62.5mg/mL, followed by Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (125mg/mL each), whereas Micrococcus luteus was found to be the most resistant surviving up to 500mg/mL. However, the extract was found to be ineffective against majority of test fungal species. Only Alternaria sp. & Penicillium sp. was found to be partially sensitive to the extract. The phytochemical analysis of amchur extract revealed the presence of tannins & terpenes. This study shows the potential for replacement of synthetic preservatives by the use of natural extracts. Introduction The problem of food spoilage has plagued humans since ancient times. Spices and herbs are used in foods mainly for their flavour and aroma but it is recognized that they may fulfill more than one function in foods to which they are added. In addition to imparting flavour, certain spices prolong the storage life of food by preventing rancidity through their bacteriostatic or bactericidal activity (Beuchat and Golden, 1989). Being natural foodstuff, they appeal to consumers who tend to question the safety of synthetic food additives. Many natural substances of plant origin may play a fundamental role in the host-pathogen relationship, and products from different plant genera are reported to be biologically active, endowed with antimicrobial, allelopathic and antioxidant properties.Amchur (dried pulp of unripe Mangifera indica) is used in Indian spices as a souring agent to provide the desired acidity in the various food recipes. Mango is considered as a king of fruits in Indian delicacy. The roots and bark of mango Mangifera indica (Anacardiaceae) are astringent, acrid, anti-inflammatory, and constipating. The leaves and flowers are refrigerant, styptic, vulnerary and constipating. Amchur (dried or dehydrated product of unripe mango flesh in the form of peeled slices or powder) is used as an acidulant or a souring agent for curries. Amchur is rich in citric acid. Very limited literature is available on the antimicrobial activity of amchur extract. In the present study, we have investigated the antibacterial activity & phytochemical study of dried pulp of unripe Mangifera indica for the first time. Materials And Methods Materials: All chemicals used were of analytical-reagent grade and obtained from E. Merck (Mumbai, India). Amchur (Mangifera indica) was collected from local market of Meerut (Uttar Pradesh, India). Dr. C.M Govil, Botany Department, C.C.S University, Meerut, India confirmed the species.Bacterial & fungal strains: Ten bacterial strains (7 Gram positive and 3 Gram negative), mostly food borne including pathogens, were selected for the study. Gram positives were Bacillus cereus, Bacillus mycoides, Bacillus subtilis, Micrococcus luteus, Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis and Listeria monocytogenes while Gram negatives were Escherichia coli, Enterobacter aerogenes and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The fungal species used in the present study were Alternaria sp., Aspergillus fumigatus, Aspergillus niger, Aspergillus sp., Penicillium sp., Rhizopus sp. & Rhizomucor sp. The bacterial & fungal stock cultures were obtained from the Department of Microbiology of this University. The viability tests for each isolate were carried out by resuscitating the organism in nutrient agar medium & Sabouraud’s dextrose agar (SDA) medium respectively. The stock on nutrient agar medium (Hi Media, Mumbai, India) & potato dextrose agar medium was incubated for 24h at 37°C (bacteria) & 28°C for 3 days (fun

Merck(印度孟买)。 Amchur(印度芒果)是从Meerut(印度北方邦)的当地市场收集的。印度密苏里州C.C.S大学植物学系的C.M Govil博士确认了该细菌和真菌菌株:选择了10种细菌菌株(7株革兰氏阳性和3株革兰氏阴性),主要通过食物传播,包括病原体。革兰氏阳性为蜡样芽孢杆菌,蕈状芽孢杆菌,枯草芽孢杆菌,微球菌,金黄色葡萄球菌,表皮葡萄球菌和单核细胞增生李斯特菌,而革兰氏阴性为大肠杆菌,产气肠杆菌和铜绿假单胞菌。本研究中使用的真菌种类是链格孢属,烟曲霉,黑曲霉,曲霉,青霉,根霉。 &Rhizomucor sp。细菌和真菌的原种培养物是从该大学的微生物学系获得的。通过分别在营养琼脂培养基和Sabouraud的葡萄糖琼脂(SDA)培养基中复苏微生物来进行每种菌株的生存能力测试。将营养琼脂培养基(Hi Media,印度孟买)和马铃薯葡萄糖琼脂培养基上的原液在37°C(细菌)和28°C孵育24小时(有趣)。
