Abstract

Plants are natural products widely used for different purposes worldwide. With these properties, it is important to determine the potential of plants. In our study, some biological activities of ethanol and methanol extracts of Nitraria schoberi L. were determined. Ethanol and methanol extracts were obtained from the aboveground parts of the plant in the Soxhlet apparatus. Then, total antioxidant (TAS), total oxidant levels (TOS) and oxidative stress index (OSI) of the plant extracts were determined using Rel Assay kits. Antimicrobial activities of the plant extracts were determined by agar dilution method against standard bacterial and fungal strains. As a result of the analyzes, it was seen that ethanol extracts of the plant had higher TAS values. In addition, it was determined that methanol extract had higher TOS and OSI values ​​among the plant extracts. It was observed that methanol extracts of the plant were effective against bacterial strains at concentrations between 100-400 μg/mL, while ethanol extracts of the plant were effective against bacterial strains at concentrations between 50-400 μg/mL. It was observed that both ethanol and methanol extracts were effective against fungal strains at concentrations between 100-200 μg/mL. As a result, it was observed that the plant has antioxidant and antimicrobial potentials. In this context, it is thought that it can be an important natural material in pharmacological designs.
