چکیده
objectives the aim of this study was to evaluate the stability of antibacterial properties of nanosilver solution during a period of 9 months against streptococcus mutans, staphylococcus aureus and pseudomonas aeruginosa. materials and methods in this in vitro study, the antibacterial effect of serial concentrations of nanosilver solution and amoxicillin antibiotic as control group on the standard bacteria s. mutans, s. aureus and p. aeruginosa were measured in 0-3-6-9 month period by disc diffusion methods. results the antibacterial activity and stability of nanosilver solution in comparison with amoxicillin antibiotic were measured and the results were examined by t-test statistical analysis. during 9 months, no significant changes were seen in antibacterial activity of nanosilver solution (4000 µg.ml-1), except for s. mutans. in other concentrations of nanosilver solution and amoxicillin, reduction of antibacterial activity was observed. conclusions antibacterial activity of 4000 µg.ml-1 nanosilver was stable in a 9 month duration but reduction of antibacterial activity in lower nanosilver concentrations and amoxicillin were significant in the same time period. background nanosilver compounds are admired in different fields of medicine and industry, due to their unique antibacterial properties. maximum contact of silver particles in nanosilver suspension causes increasing antibacterial effect of this compound.

In vitro Evaluation of Methylxanthines and Some Antibiotics: Interaction against Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Background: The development of resistance to antimicrobial agents is a major problem in chemotherapy. Finding agents which potentiate antimicrobial activity could be favorable. There are some reports that methylxanthines changed the inhibitory effect of antibacterial agents. Thus, possible synergistic effect of methylxanthines, aminophylline and caffeine on some antibiotics, carbenicillin, ceft...

متن کاملComparative pharmacodynamics of gentamicin against Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
Aminoglycosides are often used to treat severe infections with gram-positive organisms. Previous studies have shown concentration-dependent killing by aminoglycosides of gram-negative bacteria, but limited data are available for gram-positive bacteria. We compared the in vitro pharmacodynamics of gentamicin against Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Five S. aureus strains were ex...

Chronic coinfections of Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa frequently fail to respond to antibiotic treatment, leading to significant patient morbidity and mortality. Currently, the impact of interspecies interaction on S. aureus antibiotic susceptibility remains poorly understood. In this study, we utilize a panel of P. aeruginosa burn wound and cystic fibrosis (CF) lung isolates...

Few long-term multicenter investigations have evaluated the relationships between aggregate antimicrobial drug use in hospitals and bacterial resistance. We measured fluoroquinolone use from 1999 through 2003 in a network of US hospitals. The percentages of fluoroquinolone-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) were obtained from yearly antibiogr...
