Abstract:
The presence of antifungal active compounds in Paeonia suffruticosa
and Hedera helix extracts was detected with TLC bio tests (HOMANS A.L. &
FUCHS A., 1970 modified) and HPLC. So 25 µl of acetone extract (20 g FW
in 100ml acetone 50%) from both plant species was applied on TLC
aluminium plates (silica gel 60 F254; thickness 0,2 mm; Merck, Darmstadt)
and processed with an solvent mixture cu tertiary butylmethylester (TBME)
isooctane (7:3, v/v). After solvent evaporation (cca. 3 h), the plates were
covered with malt- agar medium 1% and than an inoculation with
Cladosporium cucumerinum spores was done. The TLC plates was incubated
for 4-5 days in wheat chamber at 25°C, the inhibition areas was visible due
the black mycelia of Cladosporium cucumerinum.
