Abstract

EVALUATION OF ANTIMICROBIAL ACTIVITY OF JASMINUM SPECIES USING SOLVENT EXTRACTS AGAINST CLINICAL PATHOGENS

Sushant Shekhar and Prasad M.P*

ABSTRACT

Plants are commonly used even today. Some chemical compounds from these plants have been purified and been commercialized by the pharmaceutical industries. Jasminum is a genus of shrubs and vines belonging to the olive family (Oleaceae). It contains around 200 species which are native to tropical and warm temperate regions of the Eurasia, Australasia and Oceania. Jasmines are cultivated throughout the country. However, the largest area under Jasmine flower production is in Tamil Nadu followed by Karnataka. The annual production of jasmine is more than 15 tones in India. In the present investigation different species of Jasminum like Jasminum grandiflorum, Jasminum sambac cultivar variety, Jasminum aungustifolium, Jasminum sambac wild variety, Jasminum sambac cultivar variety, Jasminum auriculatum, Jasminum humile and Jasminum officinale were extracted with various solvents and the concentrated crude extracts were checked for its antibacterial activity against selected human pathogens viz., E.coli, Bacillus sp., Streptococcus sp., Salmonella sp., Pseudomonas sp., Serratia marcescens, Klebsiella pneumonia and Staphylococcus aureus. It was found that most of the samples showed antimicrobial activity against some of the pathogens. The methanolic and ethanolic extract was found to be a better solvent to elute the chemical compound and show antimicrobial activity. Jasminum sambac wild variety, showed the highest activity along with Diethyl ether extract against Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Keywords: Jasminum, Antimicrobial, Solvents, Pathogens.
