description Public health concerns increase due to microbial propagation and the resistance to existing drugs; therefore, new alternatives are sought, such as the use of natural sources that are antimicrobial agents. Thus, the aim of this study was to evaluate the antibacterial potential of ethanolic extracts of seeds of the species Annona muricata (L.), Annona cherimola (Miller), Annona glabra (L.), Annona reticulata (L.), Rollinia mucosa ([Jacq.] Baillon) and Annona montana (Macfad.) of the Annonaceae family cultivated in Colombia. The bacterial strains correspond to: Staphylococcus aureus (Rosenbach), Enterococcus faecalis ([Andrewes and Horder] Schleifer and Kilpper-Bölz), Bacillus subtilis ([Ehrenberg] Cohn), Escherichia coli ([Migula] Castellani and Chalmers) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa ([J.Schröter] Migula). The antibacterial activity evaluation was performed using the agar diffusion method, each microorganism was inoculated in the medium in a concentration range of 0.2-0.5% v/v and the activity was measured by measuring the inhibition halo. A phytochemical assay was performed to identify the main metabolites to which the activity was attributed. Among the results obtained, it was found the extract of A. montana showed activity against the five bacterial strains, followed by A. glabra; the highest percentage of inhibition achieved was of A. cherimola with 79.86±3.81% activity against E. faecalis; A. reticulata and R. mucosa presented susceptibility only against two bacterial strains, the contrary, the extract of A. muricata did not present any response. The main types of metabolites identified and those attributed to antibacterial potential corresponded to alkaloids, saponins and terpenoids. The above indicates that the plants extract of Annonaceae showed antimicrobial effects. This suggest that species of this family are potential sources of compounds with antibacterial properties, which broadens the knowledge of natural extracts of Colombian materials for use in pharmacotherapy and as alternative for synthetic antibacterial agents.

Los problemas de salud pública aumentan debido a la propagación microbiana y la resistencia a los medicamentos existentes; por lo que se buscan nuevas alternativas, como el uso de fuentes naturales que sean agentes antimicrobianos. Así, el objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar el potencial antibacteriano de extractos etanólico de semillas de las especies Annona muricata (L.), Annona cherimola (Miller), Annona glabra (L.), Annona reticulata (L.), Rollinia mucosa ([Jacq.] Baillon) y Annona montana (Macfad.) de la familia Annonaceae cultivadas en Colombia. Las cepas bacterianas corresponden a: Staphylococcus aureus (Rosenbach), Enterococcus faecalis ([Andrewes and Horder] Schleifer and Kilpper-Bölz), Bacillus subtilis ([Ehrenberg] Cohn), Escherichia coli ([Migula] Castellani and Chalmers) y Pseudomonas aeruginosa ([J.Schröter] Migula). La evaluación de la actividad antibacteriana se realizó por el método de difusión en agar, cada microorganismo se inoculó en el medio en un rango de concentración de 0.2-0.5%, v/v, y se midió la actividad midiendo el halo de inhibición. Se realizó una marcha fitoquímica para identificar los principales metabolitos a los que se atribuyó la actividad. Entre los resultados obtenidos, se encontró que el extracto de A. montana mostró actividad contra las cinco cepas bacterianas, seguido de A. glabra, el mayor porcentaje de inhibición alcanzado fue el de A. cherimola con 79,86±3,81% de actividad frente a E. faecalis; A. reticulata y R. mucosa presentaron susceptibilidad solo frente a dos cepas bacterianas, por el contrario, el extracto de A. muricata no presentó ninguna respuesta. Los principales tipos de metabolitos identificados y a los que se atribuye potencial antibacteriano correspondieron a alcaloides, saponinas y terpenoides. Lo anterior indica que los extractos vegetales de Annonaceae presentaron efectos antimicrobianos. Esto sugiere que las especies de esta familia son fuentes potenciales de compuestos con propiedades antibacterianas, lo que amplía el conocimiento de extractos naturales de materiales colombianos para su uso en farmacoterapia y como alternativa a los agentes antibacterianos sintéticos.
