Some microorganisms are responsible for food spoilage and foodborne infections worldwide. These microorganisms are becoming increasingly resistant to degradation or inhibition due to exposure to antibiotics, antifungal, and antiparasitics, posing a growing threat to human health. The aim of this study was to describe the antimicrobial properties of compounds present in Myrciaria dubia (pulp, seed, peel, and leaves) against bacteria (Staphylococcus spp., Escherichia coli, Salmonella and others), yeasts (Candida albicans and Saccharomyces cerevisiae) and parasitic protozoa (Leishmania amazonensis and Plasmodium falciparum). Different papers published in the main databases (Scopus, ScienceDirect, PubMed, Wiley Online Library, as well as in university repositories) were reviewed. These results were analyzed and organized according to their inhibitory activity, attributable metabolic actions of this plant, mainly based on its phenolic compounds present (rhodomyrtone, isomyrtucommulone B, myrciarone B, trans-resveratrol, 2.4-dihydroxybenzoic acid, myricetin, syringic, ellagic acid and casuarictin), which can inhibit the synthesis or destabilize the microbial membrane, nucleic acids, cell walls in bacteria and mitochondrial dysfunction in protozoa
Algunos microorganismos son responsables del deterioro de los alimentos y de las infecciones alimentarias en el mundo. Estos microorganismos se están volviendo cada vez más resistentes a la degradación o inhibición debido a la exposición de antibióticos, antifúngicos y antiparasitarios, lo que supone una amenaza creciente para la salud de las personas. El objetivo de este estudio fue describir las propiedades antimicrobianas de los compuestos presentes en Myrciaria dubia (pulpa, semilla, cáscara y hoja) contra bacterias (Staphylococcus spp., Escherichia coli, Salmonella y otros), levaduras (Candida albicans y Saccharomyces cerevisiae) y protozoos parásitos (Leishmania amazonensis y Plasmodium falciparum). Se revisaron distintos trabajos publicados en las principales bases de datos (Scopus, ScienceDirect, PubMed, Wiley Online Library), así como en repositorios de universidades. Estos resultados fueron analizados y organizados de acuerdo a su actividad inhibitoria, capacidad atribuible a las acciones metabólicas de esta planta, basados principalmente en sus compuestos fenólicos presentes (rhodomyrtone, isomyrtucommulone B, myrciarone B, trans-resveratrol, ácido 2,4 dihidroxibenzoico, myricetin , syringic, ácido elágico y casuarictin), los que pueden inhibir la síntesis o desestabilizar la membrana microbiana, ácidos nucleicos, paredes celulares en bacterias y disfunción mitocondrial en protozoos.
