Bioactive Compounds and Antimicrobial Activity of Glasswort Salicornia europaea

This study aims to determine the chemical and physical composition antibacterial activity of glasswort. Soxhlet extraction S. europaea was performed using Hexane analyzed by Gas chromatographymass spectrometry. Alpha-tocopherol content analysed Liquid chromatography with tandem mass The elemental analysis investigated inductively coupled plasma crystallographic texture powder samples were determined X-ray diffraction. Minimum Inhibition Concentrations inhibition zones extracts spectrophotometric broth microdilution disc diffusion methods, respectively, against 4 bacteria (Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumonia, Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus) 2 fungi (Candida albicans, C. parapsilosis). quantity oil found be 2.1±0.3mg/100 g 15.15 %, respectively. detected minerals also as Na 447, Mg 51.98, K 45.86, Ca 14.27 ppm. highest minimum concentration 0.9 mg/mL E. coli in methanol extract (p<0.05). mean diameter 3.8 mm for B. subtilis As a result, can used potential bioactive antimicrobial agents pharmaceutical cosmetics applications.
