| Abstract: | The crude
buffer (Tris Buffer Saline-I) extracts of muscles, liver, kidney and heart of
goat and chicken (White leghorn) were screened against 16 clinical isolates.
Among the five tissues, the heart tissue of each animal showed significant
bactericidal activities on many isolates. The acid extracted crude proteins of
both heart tissues also showed significant antibacterial activities against many
bacterial isolates. The crude proteins of goat heart tissues displayed strong
bactericidal activities against Salmonella
paratyphi ‘A’ and Salmonella
typhimurium (MIC: 16  g/ml) whereas
the crude proteins of chicken heart tissues displayed strong bactericidal
activities against Escherichia coli
ATCC and Pseudomonas aeruginosa at 16
and 63 g/ml concentrations respectively. The
peptides of low molecular weight (< 30
kDa) were also separated from the acid extracted crude proteins of goat and
chicken heart tissues by SDS-PAGE after staining with silver nitrate solution. |
