Comparison of Biofilm Formation between Methicillin-Resistant and Methicillin-Susceptible Isolates of Staphylococcus aureus
Background: The aim of this study was to compare the biofilm formation and the prevalence of biofilm-associated genes between the isolates of methicillin-resistant (MRSA) and methicillin-susceptible (MSSA) Staphylococcus aureus. Methods: In total, 209 S. aureus isolates were collected. The antibiotic susceptibility test was conducted using nine antibiotics according to the guidelines of Clinica...
متن کاملAntibacterial Activity of Rhus javanica against Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus
In the present study, the leaves of Rhus javanica (R. javanica) were extracted with ethanol, and we investigated the antimicrobial activity of the ethanol extract of R. javanica against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Control groups were treated with media containing 0.1% DMSO. The ethanol extract of R. javanica inhibited the growth of MRSA at concentrations ranging from 0.0...
متن کاملIn Vitro Antibacterial Activity of Essential Plant Oils against Biofilm Forming Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus
An alarming increase in biofilm forming methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) possesses a serious problem in hospital environment demands a renewed effort to seek agents from natural system that are effective against pathogenic bacteria resistant to current antimicrobials. In the study, the distribution of biofilm forming MRSA and the antibacterial activity of essential oils (Eucal...
متن کاملBactericidal activity of antiseptics against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.
Various commonly used antiseptics were tested against three strains of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) at stock strength and in serial 10-fold dilutions. The stock solutions of 4% chlorhexidine gluconate-alcohol (Hibiclens), 1% p-chloro-m-xylenol (Acute-Kare), and 3% hexachlorophene (Phisohex) produced 2-log reductions of MRSA after a 15-s exposure, but even after 240 s, thes...
متن کاملAntibacterial Activity of THAM Trisphenylguanide against Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus
This study investigated the potential antibacterial activity of three series of compounds synthesized from 12 linear and branched polyamines with 2-8 amino groups, which were substituted to produce the corresponding guanides, biguanides, or phenylguanides, against Acinetobacter baumannii, Enterococcus faecalis, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus. Antibacterial ac...
