Screening selected medicinal plants for antibacterial activity against Methicillin- Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA)
Methanolic extracts of Vitex negundo (Nochi), Coleus amboinicus (Karpuravalli), Hylocereus polyrhyzus (Dragon fruit) and Andrographis paniculata (Hempedu Bumi) were evaluated in an effort to identify antibacterial compounds against clinical isolates of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Coleus amboinicus crude methanolic (CACM) leaves extract inhibited MRSA growth completely at...
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 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...
متن کاملAntibacterial activity of epigallocatechin gallate against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus.
The antibacterial activity of epigallocatechin gallate (EGCg), a catechin, against 53 clinical isolates of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) was evaluated and expressed as minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC). The MIC50 and MIC90 of the strains were found be 64 and 126 micrograms/ml, respectively by the microdilution method. A time-kill study using an isolate showed that EGCg...
متن کاملHypericin Extracts Antibacterial Effect of Cultivated Hypericum perforatum Against Staphylococcus aureus Susceptible and Methicillin-Resistant
Staphylococcus aureus are important factors for infections that acquired of hospital and community. Infections caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus mainly of hospital origin, which in many countries is increasing. For this reason, many researchers have tried to find new compounds as a substitute for these antibiotics. Hypericin is the active substance H.perforatum and licone ma...
