Methanolic and ethyl acetate extracts from eight different seaweeds collected from the red sea Hurghada, Egypt (June, 2009) were screened for their antibacterial activities against both gram positive bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus NCIMB 50080 and Bacillus cereus) and gram negative bacteria (Escherichia coli NCIMB 50034, Enterococcus feacalis NCIMB 50030, Salmonella sp. and Pseudomonase aeruginosa). [] Key Method The antibacterial activities were expressed as zone of inhibition and minimum inhibitory…

Antimicrobial activity of seaweed extracts from Pattani, Southeast coast of Thailand

Marine algae are known as source of bioactive secondary metabolites. Green marine algae ( Ulva intestinalis ) and red marine algae ( Gracilaria fisheri ) were collected from the coast of Pattani

ANTIBACTERIAL ACTIVITY OF MARINE MACRO ALGAE HYPNEA CERVICORNIS (RHODOPHYCEAE) COLLECTED FROM CHAGKUMUGAM COASTAL REGION

The preliminary data showed that in the region D. deltiodea plant properly grow and can provide baseline information of selection of suitable cultivation sites, conservation and developing agro-techniques for this species.

Phytochemical screening and antimicrobial activities of some green algae from Egypt

The phytochemical screening of methanolic and acetonic extract revealed the presence of phytoconstituents including anthraquinones, cardiac glycosides, flavonoids, saponins, tannins and terpenoids, and the antimicrobial property in all species which increase the importance of them.

Evaluation of antibacterial activity of some selected green seaweed extracts from Muttam coastal areas, Kanyakumari, Tamil Nadu, India

The microbial strains S. aureus, P. aeruginosa, Bacillus subtilis and L. acidophilus were resistant to the chloroform and methanol of all selected seaweeds and further study should be needed to identify the prime compound which is responsible for the activity against the selected pathogens.

Screening of phytochemical and antibacterial potential of diff erent organic solvent extracts of Stoechospermum marginatum (Ag) Kutz. from Manappad coast, Tuticorin District, South India

The finding suggest that the ethyl acetate extract of S. marginatum can be used as an antibacterial substance for the treatment of bacterial infections.

Antibacterial Activity of the Extracts of Marine Red and Brown Algae

It is observed that the extract residues of algae recorded maximum activity against staphylococcus aureus with an inhibition zone compared to other bacterias, and chloroform : methonal is the best solution for extracting the effective antibacterial materials from the brown algae species.

Screening for antibacterial and antifungal activities in some marine algae from the Fujian coast of China with three different solvents

In general, the extracts of seaweeds inhibited bacteria more strongly than fungi and species of the Rhodophyta showed the greatest activity against the bacteria and fungi tested.

Screening of antibacterial activity in marine green and brown macroalgae from the coast of Morocco

The results indicate that these species of seaweed collected from the Atlantic and Mediterranean coast of Morocco present a significant capacity of antibacterial activities, which makes them interesting for screening for natural products.

On the GRAS status of seaweeds. I. Observations on the association between antibacterial activity of ethanolic extracts and meta1 levels present in selected seaweeds.

The antimicrobial activity of extracts from the seaweeds tested should also be generally recognised as safe (GRAS) because of the weak relationship between antibacterial activity and levels of metals occurring in their tissues.
