Physicochemical and Phytochemical Determinations of Greek “Kollitsida’’ (<i>Arctium lappa</i> L.) from Different Regions and Evaluation of Its Antimicrobial Activity

The present study aimed to investigate Greek Kollitsida root samples from different geographical regions based on physicochemical and antibacterial analyses. For this purpose, samples were treated with different solvents, deionized water (solvent A) and ethanol of grape origin (solvent B), to monito...

description The present study aimed to investigate Greek Kollitsida root samples from different geographical regions based on physicochemical and antibacterial analyses. For this purpose, samples were treated with different solvents, deionized water (solvent A) and ethanol of grape origin (solvent B), to monitor if the physicochemical and phytochemical parameter values can be affected by the type of solvent. Results showed that the extraction solvent affected the physicochemical and phytochemical profile of Kollitsida. In addition, the aqueous and ethanolic extracts showed antibacterial activity against <i>Salmonella typhimurium</i> and <i>Staphylococcus aureus,</i> which was also affected by the geographical origin of Kollitsida samples. Finally, the application of multivariate analysis on the data obtained using deionized water or ethanol of grape origin as an extraction solvent for the analyses classified samples according to their geographical origin by 100%, using the cross-validation method of linear discriminant analysis. The study brings new knowledge regarding the physicochemical, phytochemical, and antibacterial profiles, along with the authenticity, of Greek Kollitsida.
