Abstract
Genus Silene (Caryophyllaceae) is very rich in secondary metabolites and has an antiviral, antimalarial, antitumor, antibacterial and antioxidant properties, but Balkan endemic Silene sendtneri (Sendtner's campion) is not analyzed from the aspect of phenolic composition and their biological activities. Evaluation of total phenolic contents (TPC) and total flavonoid contents (TFC), and antioxidant and antimicrobial activities of hydromethanolic extracts from inflorescences, stem, rhizome, and seeds of S. sendtneri, was done in this study for the first time. The TPC, TFC, and antioxidant activity (DPPH; 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) were determined by UV/VIS spectrophotometry. Antimicrobial activity was estimated against selected test microorganisms (Staphylococcus epidermididis, Staphylococcus aureus subsp. aureus, Salmonella abony, Escherichia coli, and Candida albicans) using a disc diffusion assay. The inflorescences had the highest (11.587 mg GAEg-1 DW) and rhizome the lowest TPC (2.017 mg GAEg-1 DW). The inflorescences extract exhibited the highest TFC (69.824 mg CEg-1 DW), while TFC was not detected in the rhizome extract. The stem’s extract had the highest antioxidant activity (IC50; 20.51%), while the rhizome had the lowest (61.89%). All extracts showed moderate antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus epidermididis and low activity against the three remaining tested organisms. Antifungal activity of inflorescence and rhizome extracts was moderate. Obtained results provide a basis for further investigations of various S. sendtneri extracts, which can be a potential natural antioxidant and antimicrobial agents
