Abstract
In this study, some physicochemical properties of the peel powder obtained from Zivzik pomegranate native to Siirt province and its antibacterial effects against Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli and Bacillus cereus bacteria, which are known as important food pathogens, were investigated. For this purpose, pomegranate peel powder diluted with distilled water at different rates (2.5%, 5, 10 and 20%) was used. In addition, the sensitivity of these bacteria to commercial antibiotics (erythromycin, streptomycin, penicillin, amoxycillin/clavulanic acid and cephalexin) was determined and compared with pomegranate peel powders antibiotic effects. In the study, the pH range of pomegranate peel powder was determined as 3.68-3.91, the O/R range was 187.52-199.30 mV, and the EC range was 0.39-0.48 µS/cm while it was observed that antibiotics and pomegranate peel powder concentration had significant effects on bacteria (P
