Abstract

The objective of this study is to identify the different parts of Vitex doniana (Lamiaceae) and Terminalia mantaly H. Perrier (Combretaceae) exhibited superior activity against three bacterial strains and one yeast. To do this, seven aqueous and seven hydroethanolic extracts (30/70) were extracted, followed by the determination of specific activity in solid media and antibacterial parameters using the liquid dilution method. The results showed that extraction yields were higher with the fruit than with the roots and bark. The determined specific activity (3,337 and 6,596 AU/mg) identified the root of T. mantaly, the pulp and seed, and the fruit pulp of V. doniana as the parts concentrating the active principles exhibiting inhibitory activity against the studied strains. The lowest MIC values were obtained with the ethanolic extracts of T. mantaly and were 0.15 mg/ mL on E. coli ATCC 25922, 0.52 mg/ mL on S. aureus ATCC 25923 and 0.2 mg/ mL on S. typhi IPP 5534 and Vitex seed with MICs of 0.62 mg/ mL, 0.67 ± 0.54 mg/ mL, and 0.52 ± 0.18 mg/ mL respectively on the same strains. The lowest MIC values for C. albicans strain ATCC 2091 were obtained with hydroalcoholic extracts of the bark (0.72 ± 0.47 mg/ mL) and pulp + seed, and of V. doniana. (0.2±0.09 mg/ mL). The activity of these extracts is either bactericidal or bacteriostatic on the strains studied.
