description | A combination of crushed garlic ( Allium sativum ) and black cumin
seeds ( Nigelia sativum ) has been used as a traditional remedy for
urinary tract infections. In-vitro antimicrobial testing suggested that
the mixture of two spices in the ratio of 1:1 has antimicrobial effects
on both Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli species.
Analyses of the extract of garlic and black cumin by GC-MS as well as
LC-MS & MS2 confirmed that the main components of garlic were
allicin, γ-glutamyl-S-allylcysteine and allicin transformed
products such as diallyldisulfide and vinyldithiins. Components of
black cumin were thymoquinone, p-cymene, p-tert-butylcatechol, and
pinene. Isolated samples of allicin by preparative HPLC from garlic
extract and reference samples of diallyldisulfide and thymoquinone were
tested individually and in combination for their antimicrobial
activities against S. aureus and E. coli. All of these compounds showed
modest antimicrobial effects individually (except diallyldisulfide
against E. coli) and in combination. |
