Antimicrobial activity of yeasts against some pathogenic bacteria
AIM This study was designed to isolate and identify yeast species from milk and meat products, and to test their antimicrobial activity against some bacterial species. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 160 milk and meat products samples were collected from random sellers and super markets in New Damietta city, Damietta, Egypt. Samples were subjected to yeast isolation procedures and tested for...
متن کاملScreening of plant extracts for antimicrobial activity against bacteria and yeasts with dermatological relevance.
There is cumulative resistance against antibiotics of many bacteria. Therefore, the development of new antiseptics and antimicrobial agents for the treatment of skin infections is of increasing interest. We have screened six plant extracts and isolated compounds for antimicrobial effects on bacteria and yeasts with dermatological relevance. The following plant extracts have been tested: Gentian...
متن کاملSoap-film coating: High-speed deposition of multilayer nanofilms
The coating of thin films is applied in numerous fields and many methods are employed for the deposition of these films. Some coating techniques may deposit films at high speed; for example, ordinary printing paper is coated with micrometre-thick layers of clay at a speed of tens of meters per second. However, to coat nanometre thin films at high speed, vacuum techniques are typically required,...
متن کاملAntimicrobial activity of aurein 2.5 against yeasts.
Fungal infections with multiple resistance to conventional antifungals are increasingly becoming a medical problem, and there is an urgent need for new antifungal compounds with novel mechanisms of action. Here, we show that aurein 2.5, a naturally occurring peptide antibiotic, displays activity against the fungal strains: Rhodotorula rubra and Schizosaccharomyces pombe (MICs < 130 μM). The pep...
متن کاملAntimicrobial Effect of Lactic Acid Bacteria against Common Pathogenic Bacteria
Abstract Background and Objective: Probiotics are living microorganisms that have beneficial effects on the health of digestive system. The aim of this study was to evaluate the antimicrobial ability of acidic and neutral supernatants (culture supernatant) of lactic acid bacteria against common bacterial pathogens. Meth...
