The antimicrobial activity of the diethyl ether, acetone, chloroform, petroleum ether, and ethanol extracts of the lichenXanthoparmelia pokornyiand its gyrophoric acid and steno- sporic acid constituents has been screened against some foodborne bacteria and fungi. Both the extracts and the acids showed antimicrobial activity againstAeromonas hydrophila, Bacil- lus cereus, Bacillus subtilis, Listeria monocytogenes, Proteus vulgaris, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus faecalis, Yersinia enterocolitica, Candida albicans and Candida glabrata. The extracts were inactive against the tested filamentous fungi. The MIC values of the extracts and the acids for the bacteria have also been determined.

Key words: Xanthoparmelia pokornyi, Gyrophoric and Stenosporic Acid, Antimicrobial Activity
