چکیده
background considering the high prevalence of bacterial vaginosis and its association with urinary tract infection in women and treatment of gynecologic problems occur when a high recurrence of bacterial vaginosis is often treated with antibiotics. objectives the purpose of this study was to investigate the inhibitory effect of lactobacillus reuteri on pathogenic bacteria isolated from women with bacterial vaginosis. materials and methods ninety-six samples were obtained from vaginal discharge of women with bacterial vaginosis by a gynecologist with a dacron swab and put in sterile tubes containing tsb broth and thioglycollate broth. then were immediately sent to the laboratory in cold chain for further assessment. afterward, culture was transferred on blood agar, emb, palcam and differential diagnosis environments. then cultures were incubated for 24 hours at 37 °c. lactobacillus reuteri strains were cultured in mrs environment and transferred to laboratory. after purification of pathogenic bacteria, lactobacillus reuteri inhibitory effect on pathogenic bacteria was evaluated by minimum inhibitory concentration (mic) and antibiogram. statistical analysis was performed using spss software v.16. results the results of this study demonstrated the inhibitory effect of lactobacillus reuteri on some pathogenic bacteria that cause bacterial, including staphylococcus aureus, staphylococcus epidermidis, staphylococcus saprophyticus, streptococcus agalactiae, enterococcus, listeria monocytogenes and e. coli. microscopic examination of stained smears of most lactobacillus and pathogenic bacteria showed reduced. the prevalence of abnormal vaginal discharge, history of drug use, contraceptive methods and douching were 61%, 55%, 42% and 13%, respectively. significant difference was observed between the use and non-use of iud in women with bacterial. conclusions our findings indicated the inhibitory effect of lactobacillus reuteri on pathogenic bacteria that cause bacterial vaginosis. the results of this study confirmed the inhibitory effect of probiotics on pathogens growth that cause bacterial vaginosis, which can be considered in the prevention and treatment of bacterial vaginosis in further investigations.

متن کاملIn vitro inhibitory activity of human vaginal lactobacilli against pathogenic bacteria associated with bacterial vaginosis in Kenyan women.
Lactobacilli have been shown to inhibit in vitro growth of many pathogens and have been used as probiotics to treat a broad range of gastrointestinal and/or vaginal disorders. We sought to determine the in vitro inhibitory potential of lactobacilli of vaginal origin to some bacteria associated with bacterial vaginosis (BV), to characterize the inhibitory substances produced by these lactobacill...
متن کاملAssociation between Lactobacillus species and bacterial vaginosis-related bacteria, and bacterial vaginosis scores in pregnant Japanese women
BACKGROUND Bacterial vaginosis (BV), the etiology of which is still uncertain, increases the risk of preterm birth. Recent PCR-based studies suggested that BV is associated with complex vaginal bacterial communities, including many newly recognized bacterial species in non-pregnant women. METHODS To examine whether these bacteria are also involved in BV in pregnant Japanese women, vaginal flu...

Nowadays, many antibiotics are being used to control infectious diseases. Inappropriate use of antibiotics leads to emergence of resistant bacteria and problems such as a prolonged course of treatment. Medicinal plants and their derivatives, as a good source of treatment, are effective against drug resistance. In this study we have evaluated the antimicrobial activity of herbal essential oils o...
متن کاملIdentification and in vitro production of Lactobacillus antagonists from women with or without bacterial vaginosis.
Lactobacilli isolated from the vaginal tract of women with and without bacterial vaginosis (BV) were identified and characterized for the production of antagonists. Bacterial samples were isolated from healthy women (N = 16), from patients with clinical complaints but without BV (N = 30), and from patients with BV (N = 32). Identification was performed using amplified ribosomal DNA restriction ...
متن کاملPrevalence of hydrogen peroxide-producing Lactobacillus species in normal women and women with bacterial vaginosis.
A predominance of Lactobacillus species in the vaginal flora is considered normal. In women with bacterial vaginosis, the prevalence and concentrations of intravaginal Gardnerella vaginalis and anaerobes are increased, whereas the prevalence of intravaginal Lactobacillus species is decreased. Because some lactobacilli are known to produce hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), which can be toxic to organism...
