Anti-microbial activities of mannose-binding lectin.
Mannose-binding lectin (MBL; also known as mannan-binding lectin) is involved in first-line defence by binding to bacteria, viruses, protozoa and helminths through a pattern-recognition mode of detection and then initiating a range of host responses. Currently, we have been unable to extrapolate from what we know of the biochemistry of MBL binding to predict accurately the interaction of MBL wi...
متن کاملAnalysis of the Phytochemical Contents and Anti-microbial Activity of Ocimum basilicum L.
Medicinal plants are a source of great economic value all over the world. Nature has bestowed on us a very rich botanical wealth and large number of diverse types of plants grows in different parts of the country. In this study the in vitro antimicrobial activity of crude ethanolic, methanolic and water extracts of the stem bark of O.basilicum were investigated. The extracts exhibited antimicro...

The research studied the antibacterial properties of five essential oils (EO) on Escherichia coli O157:H7. The results show that oregano and thyme EO have significant in vitro colicidal and colistatic properties and are exhibited in a broad temperature range. The effects were greatly improved by the addition of agar as stabilizer. Bay and clove bud EO are shown less active in reducing the numbe...

Benencia, F. (1999). Antiviral activity of sandalwood oil against Herpes simplex viruses-1 and -2. Phytomedicine 6(2), 119-23. The study tested the antiviral activity of sandalwood oil, the essential oil of Santalum album L against Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) and 2 (HSV-2). Results demonstrated dose-dependent effect of sandalwood oil in inhibiting the replication of virus, and more sign...
متن کاملPhytochemical Analysis and Anti-microbial Activity of Some Important Medicinal Plants from North-west Iran
Due to the increase of microbial resistance to antibiotics and the occurrence of side effects, use of medicinal plants with anti-microbial properties seems to be rational. Hence, in this study, some plants of the Apiaceae, Asteraceae, Brassicaceae, and Cucurbitaceae families were evaluated for antimicrobial effects. The aerial parts of the plants were extracted by different solvents using a Sox...
