Antibacterial activity of cis- and trans-resveratrol isolated from Polygonum cuspidatum rhizome
The work is concerned with the antibacterial effect of ethanolic solutions of cis- and trans-resveralrol (cis-.lrans-3,5.4'-trihydroxystilbene) obtained by the extraction (ethanol-water 1:1 v/v) of Polygonum cuspidatum rhizome. Antibacterial activity was tested by disk diffusion method on the f...

| Summary: | The work is concerned with the antibacterial effect of ethanolic solutions of cis- and trans-resveralrol (cis-.lrans-3,5.4'-trihydroxystilbene) obtained by the extraction (ethanol-water 1:1 v/v) of Polygonum cuspidatum rhizome. Antibacterial activity was tested by disk diffusion method on the following bacteria: Escherichia coli, Sarcina liitea. Bacillus subtilis and Staphylococcits sp., using extract concentrations of 5 mg/disk. All tests showed significant antimicrobial activity, whereby the extract with trans-resveratrol exhibited more significant effect than the extract of cis-resveratrol. |
