Description

In this study the antimicrobial effects of methanol: dichloromethane (1:1) extracts of three marine sponges in Dysidea sp genus collected in 2015 at Persian Gulf, were studied against 6 human pathogenic bacteria. The minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimal bactericidal concentration (MBC) of each extracts was determined. In biofilm level, the destruction of biofilm and inhibition of biofilm production by each extract was carried out separately.
The results of this study showed that the Dysidea spc have the highest inhibitory effect on planktonic form of studied bacteria. The maximum inhibitory effect on biofilm formation related to extracts of Dysidea sp.a in 12.5 mg/mL concentration against B. cereus and the minimum inhibitory effect in this concentration against P. aeroginosa. The highest destructive biofilm effect of Dysidea sp.c extract was observed in 6.25 mg/mL against K. pneumonia and lowest destruction in 12.5 mg/mL concentration was recorded against B. cereus.
