In this study, 8 cultivars of nopal cacti from Mexico were assayed for phenolic content, antioxidant activities, and antimicrobial activities against\n                    <jats:italic>Campylobacter Jejuni<\/jats:italic>\n                    ,\n                    <jats:italic>Vibrio cholera<\/jats:italic>\n                    , and\n                    <jats:italic>Clostridium Perfringens<\/jats:italic>\n                    . Plant material was washed, dried, and macerated in methanol. Minimum bactericidal concentrations (MBCs) were determined using the broth microdilution method. Antioxidant activities were quantitatively determined using spectrophotometric methods. The MCBs of the nopal cacti ranged from 1.1 to 12.5 mg\/mL for\n                    <jats:italic>c. jejuni<\/jats:italic>\n                    , 4.4 to 30 mg\/mL for\n                    <jats:italic>V. cholera<\/jats:italic>\n                    , and 0.8 to 16 mg\/mL for\n                    <jats:italic>C. perfringens<\/jats:italic>\n                    in the cultivars Cardon Blanco, Real de Catorce, and Jalpa, respectively. High quantities of total phenols and total flavonoids were found in the Jalpa cacti (3.80 mg of gallic acid equivalent GAE\/g dry weight [DW] and 36.64 mg of quercetin equivalents [QE]\/g DW, respectively). 2,2\u2010Diphenyl\u20101\u2010picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activities (RSA) were correlated to bioactive compound contents. The Villanueva cacti had the highest %RSA at 42.31%, and the lowest activity was recorded in Copena V1 at 19.98%. In conclusion, we found that some of the 8 cactus pear cultivars studied may be used for their antioxidant compounds or antimicrobials to control or prevent the contamination of foods.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/1750-3841.12416","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,3,12]],"date-time":"2014-03-12T16:31:02Z","timestamp":1394641862000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":29,"title":["Antibacterial and Antioxidant Activities in Extracts of Fully Grown Cladodes of 8 Cultivars of Cactus Pear"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"79","author":[{"given":"E.","family":"S\u00e1nchez","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Facultad de Ciencias Biol\u00f3gicas Univ.
