Is Garlic, Ginger, Cinnamon, Or Honey More Effective Than Antibiotics Against Bacteria?
Sugar and Spice, Aren’t They Nice? Is Garlic, Ginger, Cinnamon, or Honey More Effective than Antibiotics against Bacteria? Mariano, Kadie (School: Wildwood High School) Over the years too many people have been prescribed antibiotics for unnecessary reasons such as colds. This impacts not only people having side effects associated with antibiotics but also causes the bacteria to become stronger. When the bacteria becomes more resistant than sicknesses can be harder to treat and the antibiotics will not be as effective. In response to this problem natural substances that have shown bacterial inhibition such as garlic, ginger, honey, and cinnamon should be used as a first line of defense for minor illnesses. The procedure began with producing 1 cup each of the honey, garlic, ginger, and cinnamon. The pH was tested on each substance: ginger 6, cinnamon 5, garlic 4.5, and honey 4.5. All filter disks of the substances and antibiotics were placed on their petri dishes of E Coli and Bacillus Cereus. After 24hours the zones of inhibition were measured, larger measurements means the substance was more effective. It was found that on Bacillus the garlic had 2.23cm, cinnamon 0.9cm, ginger 2.23cm, and honey 0.47cm. It was found on E Coli honey was .43cm, ginger 1.8cm, garlic 4.4cm, and cinnamon .23cm. In conclusion the data revealed that the hypothesis was not supported the honey was not the most effective, but the garlic was effective against both gram positive and gram-negative bacteria in the same level as the antibiotics..

Genebanking of Vegetatively Propagated Medicinal Plants – Two Cases: Allium and Mentha
Genebanking of Vegetatively Propagated Medicinal Plants – Two Cases: Allium and Mentha E.R. Joachim Keller, Angelika Senula and Marion Dreiling Institute of Plant Genetics and Crop Plant Research (IPK) Department of Genebank Corrensstr. 3 D-06466 Gatersleben Germany Keywords: garlic, mint, in vitro genebank, virus elimination, cryopreservation Abstract Allium and Mentha represent two genera with important species of medicinal and aromatic plants. Large proportions of Allium (1000 of 3500) and Mentha accessions (160 of 220) are traditionally maintained vegetatively in field plots in the genebank of IPK Gatersleben. The main species used for medicinal purposes (A. sativum and M. x piperita) are seed-sterile. The field cultivation is endangered by risks (diseases, bad weather conditions). Studies were done on the field infection for LYSV, OYDV, GCLV, SLV and allexi viruses in garlic and some other Allium species. Significant differences were found between species without infection (A. saxatile), species infested by one virus mostly (A. obliquum with LYSV, A. globosum with SLV) and multiple infection (A. sativum). Meristem culture was performed on 100 garlic accessions resulting in virus free clones in 95 of them. Both medicinal plants were maintained in slow-growth culture cycles including storage at reduced temperature (2 or 10°C) on medium MS without hormones for 12 months (garlic) and 15 months (mint). Cryopreservation of garlic was successful with regrowth rates of 100% (clove explants) and 73-80% (bulbil explants). Lower success was achieved with material from in vitro culture. The vitrification technique and the droplet method were compared. INTRODUCTION Genebanks acting as living plant collections for the benefit of a large users’ community are always challenged by plants which can be only vegetatively propagated.

Efficacy of Aframomum Melegueta and Zingiber Officinale Extracts on Fungal Pathogens of Tomato Fruit
IOSR Journal of Pharmacy and Biological Sciences (IOSR-JPBS) ISSN: 2278-3008. Volume 4, Issue 6 (Jan. – Feb. 2013), PP 13-16 www.iosrjournals.org Efficacy of Aframomum melegueta and Zingiber officinale extracts on fungal pathogens of tomato fruit. 1Chiejina, Nneka V2. And Ukeh3, Jude A4. 1,2,3,4 Department of Plant Science and Biotechnology University of Nigeria, Nsukka. Abstract: The inhibitory properties of the methanolic extracts of Aframomum melegueta and Zingiber officinale on the fungal pathogens isolated from tomato were investigated. The pathogens were Helminthosporium solani, Mucor piriformis, Penicillium digitatum and Aspergillus niger. Various concentrations of the extracts ranging from 0-30% were separately added to PDA media. The pathogens were separately inoculated into the media and incubated for eight days. Antifungal effects of these extracts on the mycelial growth of the pathogens were significant at P< 0.05 for all treatments. At 25% concentration, the four pathogens were completely inhibited by Z. officinale extract. A. melegueta extract inhibited completely Helminthosporium solani and Mucor piriformis, while Penicillium digitatum and Aspergillus niger were 92.99% and 89.09% inhibited respectively at 25% concentration of the extract. The in vitro inhibitory effects of these extracts indicated that they can be used for the control of tomato fruit rot. It may be necessary to use them in prolonging the shelf-life of fresh tomato fruit and some other fruits. Keywords: Efficacy, Extract, Tomato fruit, Aframomum melegueta, Zingiber offficinale, in vitro. I. Introduction Fungal infections are one of the major causes of post harvest rots of fresh fruits and vegetables whether in transit or storage.
