| Özet |
| Secondary metabolites synthesized by plants are not necessarily produced under all conditions and in majority of the cases the function of these compounds and their benefit to the organism are not totally known1. But it is determined that these compounds are synthesized especially as a defence mechanism against microorganisms, insects and herbivores2, 44-45.The anti-infective activities of plantderived secondary metabolites are under investigation in recent years due to accelerating antibacterial and antifungal resistance rates of microorganisms. Since antibacterial and antifungal resistance have been developing in human pathogens against commonly used antibiotics, there is a need for a search about new antimicrobial substances3. In addition, increasing morbidity and mortality rates of bacterial and fungal infections also lead to a research on new antimicrobial agents4. Generally microorganisms, insects, snails, slugs and small mammals cannot damage bryophytes5. It has been known for years that Bryophytes have anti-infective activity on some microorganisms5-16, 46. Bryophytes were also used to treat cardiovascular diseases, tonsillitis, |
