Antibacterial and Antioxidant Activities of Banana (Musa, AAA cv. Cavendish) Fruits Peel
Abstract
The fresh green and yellow banana peel of, (Musa, cv. Cavendish) fruits were treated with 70% acetone, which were partitioned with chloroform (CHCl3) and ethyl acetate (EtOAc), sequentially. The antioxidant activities of the extracts were evaluated by using the thiocyanate method, β-carotene bleaching method and 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical elimination. While, antimicrobial activities of the extracts and isolated components were evaluated using paper disc methods and Minimum Inhibition Concentration (MIC). The EtOAc and water soluble fractions of green peel displayed high antimicrobial and antioxidant activity, respectively. Antioxidant activity of water extracts was comparable to those of synthetic antioxidants such as butylated hydroxyanisole and butylated hydroxytoluene. Among all isolated components β-sitosterol, malic acid, succinic acid, palmatic acid, 12-hydroxystrearic acid, glycoside, the d-malic and 12-hydroxystrearic acid were the most active against all the Gram-negative and positive bacterial species tested. The MIC of d-malic and succinic acid was varying between 140-750 ppm, respectively.

Banana peel extract showed sensitivity against both P. gingivalis and A. actinomycetemcomitans, but it has no antibacterial activity against P. gingivalis at lower concentrations.
“These results supported the previous studies [38, 50, 57] and indicated that banana peel extract showed sensitivity against both, but it has no antibacterial activity against P. gingivalis at lower concentrations.”

Ethyl acetate extract of green banana peel recorded significant antimicrobial activities against Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus cereus, Salmonella enteritidis, and Escherichia coli, while yellow peel extracts recorded low activity.
“In the study of Mokbel and Hashinaga [38], ethyl acetate extract of green banana peel recorded significant antimicrobial activities against Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus cereus, Salmonella enteritidis, and Escherichia coli, while yellow peel extracts recorded low activity.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
