Ginkgo biloba flavonoid glycosides in antimicrobial perspective with reference to extraction method

摘要


The present study aims to investigate the effect of extraction method on the recovery of flavonoid glycosides, antimicrobials and antioxidants from Ginkgo leaves collected from six different locations in Uttarakhand, Indian Himalaya. Four extraction methods, namely maceration, reflux, shaker and soxhlet were considered, where reflux extracts showed higher antimicrobial antioxidant activity and higher content of flavonoid glycosides. The reference standards of Ginkgo flavonoid glycosides (quercetin, kaempferol and isorhamnetin) and crude extracts were tested for their antimicrobial activity against gram positive and gram negative bacteria and fungi following disc diffusion method and minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC). All the test microorganisms were observed to be inhibited significantly by Ginkgo flavonoids in plate based assays. Correlation coefficients exhibited the extent of contribution of flavonoid glycosides in antimicrobial activity and confirmed the reflux method as a potential method for extraction. Moreover, antioxidant activity as measured by DPPH assay was also found to be higher in reflux method. Significant variation (p < 0.05) in the flavonoid glycosides among the locations was also observed and sample collected from GB6 location was found to be the best for quercetin and isorhamnetin, while GB5 for kaempferol. Significant correlation (r < 0.05, r < 0.001) was obtained while developing the relationship between total flavonoid glycosides and antimicrobials. The present study, thus suggests the reflux method of extraction to be the best for maximum recovery of flavonoid glycosides with higher antioxidant and antimicrobial activities from Ginkgo extract.
