TL;DR: The results obtained herein indicate that L. lividum contains several active metabolites, and was active especially against S. carnosus.
Abstract: The aim of this study was to investigate the antimicrobial activity of Lycoperdon lividum against 17 bacterial and 1 fungal strains and analyse the composition of ethanol extracts by GC/MS. The in vitro antimicrobial activity of L. lividum extracts having 15 mg/mL concentration was assessed against a wide range of strains by disk diffusion method. The ethanol extract of L. lividum had antimicrobial activity against several microorganism tested, but it was active especially against S. carnosus . The results obtained herein indicate that L. lividum contains several active metabolites. Video clip of Methodology: Disk diffusion test: 7 min 11 sec Full Screen Alternate
