Özet:
Escherichia coli O157:H7 is a Gram-negative foodborne and waterborne pathogenic bacterium. Low doses of E. coli O157:H7 are adequate for infection that results in clinical cases, namely hemorrhagic colitis, thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura, and hemolytic uremic syndrome. These diseases can be lethal for children, elderly and immunocompromised people. Phenolic acids are herbal secondary metabolites. They are important for the response to environmental stresses. They are significant for human diet due to their health beneficial properties. The objective of this study was the elucidate the antimicrobial mode of action of selected phenolic acids against E. coli O157:H7. The antimicrobial activities of caffeic, rosmarinic, and vanillic acids on E. coli O157:H7 were investigated via microtiter plate assay. Minimum inhibitory concentrations were found as 6.5 mM for caffeic acid, 15 mM for rosmarinic acid and 8 mM for vanillic acid by applying a range of concentrations for each phenolic acid against the bacteria. Effect of each phenolic acid on the cell surface of E. coli O157:H7 was visualized by scanning electron microscopy. Microscopic examination demonstrated that while the surfaces of control group E. coli O157:H7 remained intact, cells treated with phenolic acids displayed disrupted cell surfaces. The bacteria were treated with each phenolic acid at a concentration which resulted in 30-50% inhibition for evaluation of outer membrane protein (OMP) profiles in response to phenolic acids stress. Following OMP isolation, SDS-PAGE and 2D-PAGE analyses were performed. By examining the OMP profiles of phenolic acid treated-bacteria, differences in expression of some proteins were observed.
