Antimicrobial activity of callus cultures of some Nigella and Leuzea species

Original language description

Extracts from Nigella sativa callus cultures and Leuzea carthamoides intact plans have already shown antibacterial properties. We decided to investigate callus cultures of some related species for antimicrobial activity. The crude methanol extracts fromthe callus cultures of five Nigella species, N. arvensis, N. damascena, N. hispanica, N. integrifolia, N. sativa, and two Leuzea species, Leuzea carthamoides and L. centauroides were investigated for their antimicrobial activity. Growth inhibition usinga broth microdilution method was determined against ten Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial strains as well as against yeast. The results showed that the extracts of all callii tested exhibited significant antimicrobial activity. Nigella species were active especially against Staphylococcus aureus and Staphylococcus epidermidis (MIC values ranged from 12.5 to 50 mg/ml). In comparison with other Nigella species, the callus culture of N. hispanica was the most effective against the m
