چکیده

امروزه گیاهان دارویی با روشهای مختلف ضدعفونی می‌شوند که هر کدام از این روش‌ها تاثیرات متفاوتی بر بار میکروبی آنها می‌گذارد. بنابراین استفاده از روش‌هایی که تاثیر زیادی در سالم‌سازی و کمترین تاثیر را روی مواد موثره این گیاهان داشته باشد ضروری است از این رو هدف از این تحقیق که بصورت طرح کامل تصادفی وآزمایش فاکتوریل در قالب طرح کاملا تصادفی با سه تکرار انجام پذیرفت بررسی تاثیر پرتو‌تابی با اشعه گاما و گاز ازون بر بار میکروبی گیاه دارویی بادرنجبویه می‌باشد. به این صورت که برگهای خشک شده بادرنجبویه در برابر دوزهای ۳، ۷، ۱۰ و ۱۵ کیلوگری اشعه گاما و غلظت‌های ۰/۳، ۰/۶ و ۰/۹میلیگرم در لیتر گاز ازون در مدت زمان‌های 10 و 30 دقیقه قرار گرفتند سپس بار میکروبی آنها مورد بررسی قرار-گرفت. نتایج نشان داد که هر دو روش بار میکروبی بادرنجبویه را کاهش دادند. اما ازون‌دهی تاثیر بیشتری در کاهش بار میکروبی این گیاه داشت بیشترین تاثیر اشعه گاما بر بار میکروبی مربوط به دوز ۱۵ کیلوگری بود. و غلظت ۰/۹ میلیگرم در لیتر گاز ازون و زمان ۳۰ دقیقه بیشترین تاثیر را در کاهش بار میکروبی داشت. بطور کلی نتایج حاصل از تحقیق نشان داد که استفاده از گاز ازون به منظور ضدعفونی بادرنجبویه روش ضدعفونی مناسبی می باشد. با توجه به این که استفاده از ازون هزینه کمتری نسبت به اشعه گاما نیاز دارد . اما باید تحقیقات بیشتری در مورد زمان قرار گیری نمونه های گیاهی در برابر گاز ازون و تاثیر آن روی مواد موثره گیاهان داریی انجام شود.

چکیده [English]

Introduction: Today, tendency to use drugs and therapies with herbal and natural products are increasing because negative effects of chemical drugs and environmental pollution have been proved. Collection and handling of medicinal plants are not usually done in sanitary conditions and difference in cultivation conditions can also increase pollution, influencing the maintenance period and damaging the aspect and the potential benefit of medicinal plants. Medicinal plants decontaminate with different methods that each of these methods has different effects on their microbial load. Therefore it seems essential to use of methods that can have the highest effect on microbial load decrease and the lowest effect on active substance of these plants.
Materials and Methods: In order to evaluate the effects of Ozone gas and gamma irradiation on microbial load of Melissa officinalis, an experiment was conducted based on randomized complete block design with three replications. Plant samples were collected from the Research farm of, Ferdowsi University of Mashhad. Meliss leaves were treated by Ozone gas concentrations 0.3, 0.6 and 0.9 ml/L for 10 and 30 min and irradiated at dosages 3, 7, 10 and 15 KGy by a Co60 source. Then microbial load of Meliss leaves were measured. Coliform bacteria were determined using Violet Red Bile lactose (VRBL) agar (Liofilchem Co., Italia), according to the method of ISO4832. According to ISO 7954, yeast extract of glucose chloramphenicol agar (Liofilchem Co., Italia) was used for determination of mold and yeast. The total count (plate count agar, Liofilchem Co., Italia) was determined by method of ISO 4833, that each replicate was tested with duplicate pour plates. Ozone gas was produced by corona discharge Ozone generator with production capacity 10 g/h of Ozone gas (OZONEAB co. A.S10. Iran). Analysis of variance and means comparison were calculated using SAS 9.1 (Cary, NC, USA, 2002-2003). Means square comparisons were different at the 5% significance level by the least significant difference test.
Results and Discussion: The effect of Gamma radiation on microbial load such as total count, molds, yeasts and Coliform was significant (p
