Résumé

Une étude ethnobotanique, biologique et chimique a été effectuée à Lubumbashi de mars à juin 2013 en vue de recenser des plantes réputées anticariogènes, évaluer leur activité antibactérienne et y rechercher des substances bioactives. 33 personnes ressources (âge moyen 47,3 [extrêmes: 31-66] ans) ont permis de recenser 14 plantes appartenant à 11 familles dominées par les Fabaceae (21,4 %). Des diverses parties employées, les racines et les feuilles sont les plus fréquentes (28,6 %). Le bain de bouche à 51,1% est le plus sollicité des modes d’administration. Ces plantes sont aussi utilisées pour 15 autres fins thérapeutiques. Les extraits des feuilles d’Anisophyllea pomifera ont présenté l’activité la plus intéressante (CMI: 31,25 μg/ml; CMB: 62,5 μg/ml) sur Streptococcus mutans et sur Lactobacillus acidophillus (CMI: 62,5 μg/ml; CMB: 125 μg/ml). Des alcaloïdes, des saponines, des stéroïdes et des tannins ont été identifiés dans la même plante. Ces résultats pourraient justifier certains usages traditionnels d’A. pomifera et suscitent la poursuite des travaux en vue de l’isolement des molécules bioactives.

Ethnobotany, biological and chemical study of plants used as anti-cariogenic in Lubumbashi – RD Congo

Abstract

In order to inventory, evaluate the antibacterial activity, search bioactive compounds of plants used against cariogenic bacteria, an ethnobotanical, biological and chemical study was undertaken in Lubumbashi from March to Jun 2013. Ethnobotanical data were collected by interview using a pre-composed questionnaire. 33 persons aged about 47.3 (age range: 31-66) allowed to gather information on 14 plants species used against cariogenic bacteria and belongs to 11 botanical families where Fabaceae were the most representative (21.4%). Roots and leaves are the most frequents used parties of these herbs (28.6%). The mouthwash (51.1%) remains the main administration route of traditional medications against cariogenic bacteria. The inventoried plants are also used for the treatment of other 15 ailments. Anisophyllea pomifera leaves extract exhibited the most antibacterial activity (MIC: 31.25 μg/mL; MBC: 62.5 μg/mL) on Streptococcus mutans and Lactobacillus acidophillus (MIC: 62.5 μg/mL; MBC: 125 μg/mL). Alkaloids, saponins, steroids and tannins were identified in studied plants. The results of Anisophyllea pomifera would vouch for the use of this plant in traditional medicine, and encourage to bring its investigation.
