Antimicrobial Activity of Pigments Extracted from Auxenochlorella protothecoides SC3 against Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Nowadays, natural microbial pigments are emerging as potential candidate therapeutic agents that can be used in antibiotic resistance. In this paper, we report the antimicrobial activity of green algae pigments. Green SC3 isolate was isolated from soil Erzurum. Pigments extracted by methanol: dimethyl sulfoxide solvents were partially characterized Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC), UV-Absorbance, and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The determined with agar well diffusion microbroth assays against Pseudomonas aeruginosa (ATCC 27853 clinic isolate), Staphylococcus aureus 25923) Escherichia coli 25922). To identify algae, total DNA both 18S rRNA 16S for chloroplast genome amplified using universal primers. Thus, alga identified Auxenochlorella protothecoides submitted to Genbank (Accession number: MW139225 MW063613). According our results, best recorded P. aeruginosa. Our results show first time A. algae.
