Resumen
El propósito del presente trabajo fue determinar la potencia antimicrobiana de extractos alcohólicos de plantas utilizadas popularmente en Argentina como antisépticos y antiinflamatorios: Dasyphyllum diaconthoides, Erythrina cristagalli, Larrea cuneifolia, Larrea divaricata, Phytolacca dioica, Pithecoctenium cynanchoides, Prosopanche americana, Schinus molle, Schkuhria pinnata, Senna aphylla y Solidago chilensis. La inhibición del crecimiento bacteriano se determinó a través de ensayos de difusión en agar, macrodilución en medio sólido y microdilución en medio líquido frente a 47 aislamientos clínicos multirresistentes a antibióticos, obtenidos de pacientes de un hospital de Tucumán, Argentina: Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Proteus mirabilis, Enterobacter cloacae, Serratia marcescens, Morganella morganii, Acinetobacter baumannii, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Stenotrophomonas maltophilia. De acuerdo con los valores de concentración inhibitoria mínima (CIM), tres de las once especies ensayadas fueron las más activas: L. divaricata, L. cuneifolia, y S. aphylla (CIM de 25 a 200 µg/mL). P. mirabilis, A. baumanni y S. maltophilia fueron las cepas más susceptibles con valores de CIM entre 25 y 50 µg/mL seguido por P. aeruginosa con valores de CIM de 50 a 100 µg/mL. Los valores de concentración bactericida mínima (CBM) fueron semejantes o dos veces superiores a los valores de CIM. Mediante ensayos bioautográficos se comprobó que los extractos más activos presentaban al menos dos principios antimicrobianos. Análisis fitoquímicos indican que estos compuestos son de naturaleza fenólica. Los resultados obtenidos justificarían el uso de estos extractos para el tratamiento de infecciones bacterianas, especialmente aquellas de origen dérmico.
The present study was conducted to investigate antimicrobial activity of alcoholic extracts of Argentine medicinal plant species (Dasyphyllum diacanthoides, Erythrina cristagalli, Larrea cuneifolia, Larrea divaricata, Phytolacca dioica, Pithecoctenium cynanchoides, Prosopanche americana, Schinus molle, Schkuhria pinnata, Senna aphylla and Solidago chilensis) against multidrug resistant human pathogen gram negative bacteria isolated from a Hospital in Tucumán, Argentina. Inhibition of bacterial growth was investigated using disc diffusion, agar macrodilution and broth microdilution methods against multiresistant clinical isolates of nine different specie of gram negative bacteria: Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Proteus mirabilis, Enterobacter cloacae, Serratia marcescens, Morganella morganii, Acinetobacter baumannii, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Stenotrophomonas maltophilia. A significant antimicrobial activity was found in three of the eleven plant species studied. Based on minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) values, three plant species, L. divaricata, L. cuneifolia, and S. aphylla were the most potent ones with MIC values between 25-200 µg/mL. Overall, P. mirabilis, M. morganii and P. aeruginosa isolates were the most susceptible to these extracts with MIC values of 25 to 50 µg/mL. All extracts showed significant inhibitory activities on bacteria growth in a dose phenolic compound-dependent fashion. The minimal bactericidal concentration (MBC) values were identical to the MIC values or twofold higher than the corresponding MIC. Contact bioautography indicated that crude extracts possess several major antibacterial components. Phytochemical screening showed that the bioactive compounds correspond to polyphenols. Investigations are in progress to purify the bioactive principles.
