The present work focuses on the use of solid and agricultural residues from Aloe vera crops, as a source of antimicrobial agents and textile dyes. The roots from an A. vera plantation post-harvest were extracted with ethyl acetate, purified and phytochemically characterized to obtain five metabolites: aloesaponarin-I (1), deoxyerythrolaccin (2), lacaic acid D methyl ester (3), aloesaponarin-II (4), and aloesaponol-I (5). Acid hydrolysis of the solid industrial residue gave aloe-emodin (6) as the main product with a good yield. All of the components were tested for the first time against phytopathogenic bacteria strains, and deoxyerythrolaccin and lacaic acid D methyl ester were active against Xanthomonas campestris with MIC values of 46.86 and 93.75 μg/mL, respectively. Aloesaponarin-I and aloe-emodin, the main products, were tested as dyes for polyester fabrics using different mordants and pH bath conditions. The colour of each material was investigated in terms of the CIELAB L*, a* and b* values, and the colour fastness to light and washing was investigated according to the Mexican standard methods (NMX-A-074-INNTEX-2005; NMX-A-105-B02-INNTEX-2010). Aloesaponarin-I dyed polyester bright yellow but the final colour was very sensitive to the pH of the dye bath. Aloe-emodin dyed polyester deep yellow, and the fabrics showed good colour fastness to light and to domestic laundering. This study provides evidence that the phenolic components obtained from agricultural residues of the aloe industry can be useful organic alternatives as antimicrobial agents and textile dyes.
