Abstract. Different extracts containing bioactive components
and etheric oil of the flowers of Linum capitatum Kit. (Linacea) of Serbian
origin were tested for an antimicrobial activity against four bacteria
(Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilus, Pseudomonas
aeruginosa), one mold (Aspergillus niger) and one yeast (Candida albicans).
The isolated flavonoids were also tested against Staphylococcus aureus,
Escherichia coli, Bacillus anhtracis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Aspergillus
niger, Candida albicans and Herpes simplex virus type.
Key words: Linum capitatum Kit., flavonoid, antimicrobial activity,
etheric oil, extracts
ANTIMIKROBNA AKTIVNOST BIOAKTIVNIH KOMPONENTI
IZ CVETA LINUM CAPITATUM KIT.
Različiti ekstrakti koji sadrže bioaktivne komponente, kao i eterična ulja
iz cveta biljke Linum capitatum Kit. (Linacea), a sa područja južne Srbije,
