Bacteriostatic effect of extract of Ginkgo Ailoba leaves on Porphyromonas gingivalisinvitro / 吉林大学学报(医学版)

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the antibacterial activity of extract of Ginkgo biloba leaves on Porphyromonas gingivalis in vitro ,and to provid pharmacological reference for developing a new type of antibacterial drugs in the treatment of periodontal disease.Methods This experiment was divided into negative control group,imipenem control group and different concentrations and forms of extract of Ginkgo biloba leaves groups.Solvent extraction method was used to extract the extract of Ginkgo biloba leaves, punching method and test tube method were performed to detect the antibacterial activity of extract of Ginkgo biloba leaves in anaerobic environment invitro and compared with Staphylococcusaureus and E.coli.By observing the antibacterial ring diameter and determination of the minimum bacteriostasis concentration (MIC),the antibacterial activities of extract of Ginkgo biloba leaves in vitro were measured.Results In the experiment of bacteriostatic ring,Porphyromonas gingivalis was treated with extract of Ginkgo biloba leaves,Ginkgo biloba leaf tablet and Ginkgo biloba soft capsule concentrate and 1∶4 diluent,the bacteriostatic ring diameters were decreased with the decreasing of the concentration.The maximum bacteriostatic diameter of Ginkgo biloba extract was 1 6.5 mm,and the maximum bacteriostasis diameters of Ginkgo biloba leaf tablet and soft capsule were 15.3 and 14.5 mm,respectively;the bacteriostatic diameter of the exact of Ginkgo biloba leaves was bigger than those of Ginkgo biloba leaf tablet and Ginkgo biloba soft capsule (P 0.05);E.coli and Staphylococcusaureus groups get the same results.When the concentration of extract of Ginkgo biloba leaves was more than 1.95 mg·L-1 ,there was no growth of Porphyromonas gingivalis but E. coli and Staphylococcus aureusa still grew;only the concentrations of exact of Girkgo biloba leaves were more than 6.25 and 12.5 mg· L-1 ,E. coli and Staphylococcus aureus didn’t grow;the bacteriostatic effect of extract of Ginkgo biloba on Porphromonas gingivalis was better than E.coli and Staphylococcus aureus . Conclusion Extract of Ginkgo biloba leaves has antibacterial effect on Porphyromonas gingivalis.
