摘要
The present study was designated to evaluate the antimicrobial activities of methonol and hexane extracts of Satureja hortensis L. which is an annual herb used as traditional folk medicine in Eastern Anatolia region of Turkey for the treatment of different infectious diseases and disorders. The antimicrobial activities of the extracts against 147 laboratory strains belong to 55 bacterial species, and 31 isolates of 1 yeast and 4 fungi species were tested by using disc diffusion assay. The results showed that hexane extract of Satureja hortensis had no antifungal, but antibacterial activity against four strains of three Bacillus species whereas methanol extract of Satureja hortensis had both anticandidal and antibacterial effects. It inhibited the growth of 23 strains of 11 bacterial species and 6 isolates of Candida albicans, at the concentration of 300 μg/ml. Satureja hortensis did not show antimicrobial activity against the remaining microorganisms (83%) tested including most and all of the clinic and plant pathogenic microorganisms, respectively. Methanol extract showed stronger and broader spectrum of antimicrobial activity as compared to hexane extract.

目前的研究被指定用来评价甲醇和己醇提取物的抗菌活性。这是在土耳其东部安纳托利亚地区一年一度的传统民间药物，用于治疗各种传染病和疾病。提取物对147个实验室菌株的抗菌活性属于55个细菌种类，31个菌株的1个酵母菌株和4个真菌菌株通过盘扩散测定进行测试。结果表明，Hortensis正己烷提取物无抗真菌，但对三种芽孢杆菌种的四种菌株具有抗菌活性，而Satureja hortensis的甲醇提取物具有抗菌和抗菌作用。浓度为300μg/ ml时，抑制了11株细菌23株和6株白色念珠菌的生长。Hatureensis没有显示出对其余微生物（83％）的抗微生物活性，包括大部分和所有的临床和植物病原微生物。与己烷提取物相比，甲醇提取物显示出更强和更广谱的抗微生物活性。
