Abstract :In this study, the extracts of Ulmus minor Mill. subsp. minor insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Ulmaceae);, Lathyrus pratensis L. insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Leguminosae);, Glaucium leiocarpum Bois. insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Papaveraceae);, and Echium vulgare L. insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Boraginacea); were investigated for their in vitro anti-Helicobacter pylori and anti-mycobacterial activity. The air-dried plant material was powdered and extracted with 70% ethanol by maceration. The extract was filtered and evaporated to dryness under the vacuum and then dissolved in a water-ethanol insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(90:10); mixture and extracted with dichloromethane and ethyl acetate, respectively. Antibacterial activity was investigated by microdilution method against Helicobacter pylori ATCC 43504, Mycobacterium smegmatis ATCC 14468 and Mycobacterium avium ATCC 25291. The ethyl acetate extract of U. minor showed activity with MIC of 250 µg / mL against H. pylori. The other extracts showed no or weak inhibitory activity at >2000 µg/mL concentrations against the tested microorganisms. In conclusion, ethyl acetate extract of U. minor may be used for the treatment of H. pylori infections.
