Abstract

One of the most serious complications of diabetes is the formation of diabetic foot syndrome. Neuropathy, vascular changes and infections are all contributors. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine antimicrobial and antioxidant activities of crude extracts isolated from plants growing in Kazakhstan (Vexibia alopecuroides (L.) Jakovl.; Rhodiola quadrifida (Pall.) Fish. et Mey.; Epilobium hirsutum L.; Rumex confertus Wiild.), which can be used to create products for the treatment of diabetic foot syndrome. Antimicrobial activity was evaluated using NCCLS broth micro-dilution assays. 2,2-azinobis (3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphuric acid) diammonium salt (ABTS) radical scavenging assay was used to determine the antioxidant activity.
