| Rheum rhabarbarum, which is commonly known as rhubarb, has been used as a medicinal herb in different countries. Especially its roots are known to be a traditional medicine in different cultures. Mesir paste was prepared about 500 years ago during Ottoman period as a medicinal paste and R. rhabarbarum was one of its ingredients. In this study the in vitro antimicrobial activity of ethanol extract of R. rhabarbarum roots was investigated against 17 bacterial and 1 fungal strain, namely, Bacillus subtilis DSMZ 1971, Candida albicans DSMZ 1386, Enterobacter aerogenes ATCC 13048, Enterococcus durans, Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 29212, Enterococcus faecium, Escherichia coli ATCC 25922, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Listeria innocula, Listeria monocytogenes ATCC 7644, Pseudomonas aeruginosa DSMZ 50071, Pseudomonas fluorescence P1, Salmonella enteritidis ATCC 13075, Salmonella infantis, Salmonella kentucky, Salmonella typhimurium SL 1344, Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923 and Staphylococcus epidermidis DSMZ 20044 by using the disk diffusion method. It is observed that ethanol extracts of R. rhabarbarum root extracts has antimicrobial activity against all microorganims tested. |
