Screening Methods to Determine Antibacterial Activity of Natural Products
The emergence of new infectious diseases, the resurgence of several infections that appeared to have been controlled and the increase in bacterial resistance have created the necessity for studies directed towards the development of new antimicrobials. Considering the failure to acquire new molecules with antimicrobial properties from microorganisms, the optimization for screening methods used ...
متن کاملMethods to Determine Amino Acid Digestibility in Corn By-products
While corn contains only limited quantities of crude protein and amino acids, corn by-products often contain crude protein and amino acids in appreciable amounts. The reason for this difference is that corn by-products are often produced after processing that primarily removes the nitrogen-free extracts (i.e., the starch) from the corn kernel. Because starch is approximately 70% of the total co...
متن کاملAntibacterial activity of human natural killer cells
The in vitro effects of human NK cells on viability of Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria was investigated. PBLs depleted of glass-adherent cells showed a significant antibacterial activity that was increased as the concentration of NK cells became higher. Leu-11-enriched cells exhibited the most efficient bactericidal activity. Stimulation of NK cells with staphylococcal enterotoxin B fo...
متن کاملAntibacterial activity of nineteen selected natural products against multi-drug resistant Gram-negative phenotypes.
The present study was designed to assess the antimicrobial activity of 19 natural products belonging to terpenoids, alkaloids, thiophenes and phenolics against a panel of 14 Gram-negative multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria. The results demonstrated that amongst the studied compounds, alkaloids and terpenoids were less active contrary to flavonoids: neocyclomorusin (3) and candidone (6) and isof...
متن کاملScreening methods to measure antioxidant activity of sorghum (sorghum bicolor) and sorghum products.
Specialty sorghums, their brans, and baked and extruded products were analyzed for antioxidant activity using three methods: oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC), 2,2'-azinobis (3-ethyl-benzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS), and 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH). All sorghum samples were also analyzed for phenolic contents. Both ABTS and DPPH correlated highly with ORAC (R(2) = 0.99 a...
