dc.description.abstract | The antimicrobial activity of the pygidial gland secretion released by adult individuals
of the troglophilic ground beetle Laemostenus (Pristonychus) punctatus (Dejean,
1828), applying microdilution method with the aim to detect minimal inhibitory concentration,
minimal bactericidal concentration and minimal fungicidal concentration,
has been investigated. In addition, morphology of the pygidial glands is observed.
Wehave tested 16 laboratory and clinical strains of human pathogens – eight bacterial
both gram-positive and gram-negative species and eight fungal species. The pygidial
secretion samples have showed antimicrobial properties against all strains of treated
bacteria and fungi. Micrococcus flavus proved to be more resistant compared with
other bacterial strains. More significant antimicrobial properties of the secretion are
observed against Escherichia coli, which proved to be the most sensitive bacteria.
Aspergillus fumigatus proved to be the most resistant, while Penicillium ochrochloron and
Penicillium verrucosum var. cyclopium themost sensitive micromycetes. Commercial antibiotics
Streptomycin and Ampicillin and antimycotics Ketoconazole and Bifonazole, applied
as positive controls, showed higher antibacterial properties for all bacterial and
fungal strains, except for P. ochrochloron, which proved to be more resistant on
Ketoconazole compared with the pygidial gland secretion of L. (P.) punctatus. Apart
from the role in ecological aspects, the antimicrobial properties of the tested secretion
possibly might have medical significance in the future. | en |
