screening of antimicrobial activities of the endophytic fungi isolated from sesbania grandiflora (l.) pers.

Antimicrobial activities of endophytic fungi isolated from Ophiopogon japonicus (Liliaceae)

BACKGROUND Drug resistance in bacteria has become a global concern and the search for new antibacterial agents is urgent and ongoing. Endophytes provide an abundant reservoir of bioactive metabolites for medicinal exploitation, and an increasing number of novel compounds are being isolated from endophytic fungi. Ophiopogon japonicus, containing compounds with antibacterial activity, is a tradit...

Cytotoxic and antimicrobial activities of endophytic fungi isolated from Bacopa monnieri (L.) Pennell (Scrophulariaceae)

BACKGROUND Endophytes, which reside in plant tissues, have the potential to produce novel metabolites with immense benefits for health industry. Cytotoxic and antimicrobial activities of endophytic fungi isolated from Bacopa monnieri (L.) Pennell were investigated. METHODS Endophytic fungi were isolated from the Bacopa monnieri. Extracts from liquid cultures were tested for cytotoxicity again...

Free Radical Scavenging and Antioxidant Activity of Leaves from Agathi (Sesbania grandiflora) (L.) Pers

Sesbania grandiflora (L.) Pers. is a soft-wooded tree belonging to the family Leguminoseae. Leaves are considered to be excellent sources of vitamin C and calcium The antioxidant activity of 70% acetone and 50% ethanol extracts of leaves of Sesbania grandiflora were determined by DPPH radical scavenging method. Among the two different extracts acetone extract was found to be more efficient.

Screening of Antimicrobial and Antioxidant Secondary Metabolites from Endophytic Fungi Isolated from Wheat (triticum Durum)

The emergence of antibiotic-resistant micro-organisms calls for inventive research and development strategies. Inhibition of these pathogenic micro-organisms may be a promising therapeutic approach. The screening of antimicrobial compounds from endophytes is a promising way to meet the increasing threat of drug-resistant strains of human and plant pathogens. In the present study, a total of 20 ...
