Abstract

Here we report the biochemical composition and antibacterial activities of the leaves and flowers of four Lantana camara (Verbanaceae) plants with yellow, lavender, red, and white flowers. Three out of the four plants showed almost similar carbohydrates and lipid compositions. The levels of carbohydrates (mg/g dry weight) in the flowers were comparatively higher than in the leaves and the lipids content was relatively higher in the leaves except L. camara lavender and white. In lavender L. camara the amount of the total carbohydrates was very low. Proteins extracted from the leaves and flowers were subjected to electrophoresis. Electrophoresis of leaf proteins revealed similarity among L. camara yellow, red, and white flowers while that of flowers proteins showed similarity between L. camara yellow, lavender, red, and white. Extracts of leaves and flowers obtained with ethyl acetate were studied for antibacterial activities. Leaf and flower ethyl acetate extracts exhibited considerable antibacterial activities against the bacteria used where the value of zone of inhibition ranged from 10-21 and 9-15 mm, respectively. For flower and leaf ethyl acetate extracts, the zone of inhibition (mm) measured ranged from 10-21 and 9-15 mm, respectively. Thus, the study of the biochemical parameters viz., lipids, carbohydrates and proteins has revealed similarity among the four different L camara. However, antibacterial activities vary from one L. camara to the other and also according to the type of tissue used.
黄、淡、红、白四种花的山楂植物的生化成分及抑菌活性
本文报道了四种花为黄色、淡紫色、红色和白色的植物的叶和花的生化成分和抗菌活性。四种植物中有三种的碳水化合物和脂质成分几乎相似。花中碳水化合物含量(mg/g干重)均高于叶中,叶中脂质含量除金缕兰、薰衣草和白叶外均高于叶中。薰衣草的总碳水化合物含量很低。从叶和花中提取蛋白质进行电泳。叶片蛋白电泳结果显示,油菜黄、红、白花具有相似性,花蛋白电泳结果显示油菜黄、薰衣草、红、白花具有相似性。研究了乙酸乙酯提取液的抑菌活性。叶和花的乙酸乙酯提取物对所用细菌具有较强的抑菌活性,抑菌区分别为10 ~ 21 mm和9 ~ 15 mm。花和叶乙酸乙酯提取物的抑制区(mm)分别为10 ~ 21 mm和9 ~ 15 mm。因此,通过对脂质、碳水化合物和蛋白质等生化参数的研究,揭示了四种不同L camara的相似性。然而,抗菌活性各不相同,也取决于所使用的组织类型。
