RESUMEN

This paper reports the antimutagenic activity of plumbagin (5-hydroxy-2-methyl-1, 4-naphthoquinone) against certain known chemical mutagens in a standard mutagenicity test system of Ames using S. typhimurium strains. Plumbagin by itself did not show any mutagenic effect, whereas it reduced significantly the mutagenic effect of 4-nitrophenylene diammine, phenyl hydrazine and sodium azide in test strains of S. typhimurium, suggesting that plumbagin possessed antimutagenic activity.

RESUMEN

Plumbagin, a compound derived from the roots of Plumbago zeylanica (Chitramool) was studied for its effect on the development of antibiotic resistance using antibiotic sensitive strains of Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. A delayed growth was seen when these organisms were inoculated into the antibiotic (streptomycin/rifampicin) medium, due to development of resistance in some of the cells. However, the growth was completely prevented when the bacteria were grown in the medium containing antibiotic and plumbagin together, and this was attributed to prevention of development of antibiotic resistant cells.
