| Abstract | Viscum album L. subsp. abietis (Wiesb.) (Loranthaceae) is extensively used for treatment in traditional medicine. This plant was collected in the region of Artvin, northern Turkey. Different concentrations of n-hexane extract were tested using the agar diffusion technique against 6 bacteria (Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Enterobacter cloacae and Proteus vulgaris), and 1 fungus (Candida albicans). We determined that fractions 6 and 7 of n-hexane extract of V. album subsp. abietis showed antimicrobial activity against the micro-organisms tested. Viscum album L. subsp. abietis (Wiesb)'in Antimikrobiyal Aktivitesi Ozet: Viscum album L. subsp. abietis (Wiesb.) (Loranthaceae) bitkisi tedavi icin geleneksel t›pta yayg›n olarak kullan›lmaktad›r. Bu bitki ornekleri Turkiye'nin kuzey k›sm›nda yer alan Artvin yoresinden topland›. N-hekzan ekstrakt›n›n farkl› konsantrasyonlar› Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Enterobacter cloacae ve Proteus vulgaris bakterileri ile Candida albicans mantar›'na karfl› agar difuzyon teknii kullan›larak test edildi. V. album subsp. abietis bitkisinin n-hekzan ekstrakt›n›n alt›nc› ve yedinci fraksiyonlar›n›n test edilen mikroorganizmalara karfl› antimikrobiyal aktivite gosterdii belirlendi. |
