Resumo: We recognize society's knowledge that since the beginning of time natural resources, such as plants, have been used to supply the needs of men, both in food and health care. Morinda citrifolia, is a plant related to several biological activities, among them the antibacterial one. The present work aimed to analyze the antibacterial activity of extracts from the leaf, bark and pulp of M. citrifolia against strains of Sthaphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. The extracts were obtained by maceration, evaporation and subsequent resolubilization. For antibacterial activity analysis, the diffusion method was performed on filter paper discs soaked with 20μl of the extracts, using Escherichia coli (ATCC 35218) Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC BAA-97). None of the extracts showed antibacterial action against Staphylococcus aureus and only the extract of Morinda citrifolia pulp showed mild activity against Escherichia coli strain. The phytochemical prospection found saponins, alkaloids, tannins and coumarins in the leaf, alkaloids in the bark and coumarins and alkaloids in the pulp. We conclude that among the parts of the Morinda citrifolia plant analyzed, the only one that showed antimicrobial action, not highlighted, against one of the bacteria tested (E.coli) was the pulp and we can also conclude that the extracting solvent as well as the metabolites of the composition are important and influential in the researched activity.

Morinda citrifolia, es una planta relacionada con varias actividades biológicas, entre ellas la antibacteriana. El presente trabajo tuvo como objetivo analizar la actividad antibacteriana de los extractos de la hoja, la corteza y la pulpa de M. citrifolia contra cepas de Sthaphylococcus aureus y Escherichia coli. Los extractos se obtuvieron por maceración, evaporación y posterior resolubilización. Para el análisis de la actividad antibacteriana, se realizó el método de difusión en discos de papel de filtro empapados con 20μl de los extractos, utilizando Escherichia coli (ATCC 35218) Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC BAA-97). Ninguno de los extractos mostró una acción antibacteriana contra Staphylococcus aureus y sólo el extracto de pulpa de Morinda citrifolia mostró una leve actividad contra la cepa Escherichia coli. La prospección fitoquímica encontró en la hoja los metabolitos saponinas, alcaloides, taninos y cumarinas, en la corteza se detectaron alcaloides y en la pulpa cumarinas y alcaloides. Se concluye que entre las partes del vegetal Morinda citrifolia analizadas la única que presentó acción antimicrobiana, no resaltada, contra una de las bacterias ensayadas (E.coli) fue la pulpa y también se puede concluir que el solvente extractor así como los metabolitos de la composición son importantes e influyentes en la actividad investigada.Reconhecemos conhecimento da sociedade que desde os primórdios recursos naturais, como as plantas, são utilizados para suprir as necessidades dos homens, tanto alimentícia, como em cuidados com a saúde. Morinda citrifolia, está planta relacionada a diversas atividades biológicas, dentre elas a antibacteriana. O presente trabalho teve por objetivo analisar a atividade antibacteriana de extratos da folha, casca e polpa de M. citrifolia frente as cepas de Sthaphylococcus aureus e Escherichia coli. Os extratos foram obtidos por maceração, evaporação e posterior ressolubilização. Para análise da atividade antibacteriana foi realizado o método de difusão em discos de papel filtro embebidos com 20μl dos extratos, utilizando Escherichia coli (ATCC 35218) Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC BAA-97). Nenhum dos extratos apresentaram ação antibacteriana contra a Staphylococcus aureus e apenas o extrato da polpa de Morinda citrifolia apresentou leve atividade frente a cepa de Escherichia coli. A prospecção fitoquímica foram encontradas na folha os metabólitos saponinas, alcaloides, taninos e cumarinas, na casca foi detectado alcaloides e na polpa cumarinas e alcaloides. Conclui-se que entre as partes do vegetal Morinda citrifolia analisadas a única que apresentou ação antimicrobiana, não destacada, contra uma das bactérias testadas (E.coli) foi a polpa e pode-se concluir também que o solvente extrator assim como os metabólitos da composição são importantes e influentes na atividade pesquisada.Research, Society and Development2022-04-24info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/2887910.33448/rsd-v11i6.28879Research, Society and Development; Vol. 11 No. 6; e4211628879Research, Society and Development; Vol. 11 Núm. 6; e4211628879Research, Society and Development; v. 11 n. 6; e42116288792525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIporhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/28879/25091Copyright (c) 2022 Alexandre Horácio Couto Bittencourt; Mariana Garcia da Silva ; Jaqueline Souza Machado; Braz Antônio Pereira Cosenza; Fernanda Mara Fernandeshttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessBittencourt, Alexandre Horácio Couto Silva , Mariana Garcia da Machado, Jaqueline Souza Cosenza, Braz Antônio Pereira Fernandes, Fernanda Mara 2022-05-13T18:04:10Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/28879Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:46:08.105182Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false
