Abstract:

Objective: Due to the alarming increase the incidence and prevalence of infectious diseases and increasing bacterial resistance to antibiotics need to discover new strong antimicrobial compounds is feeling.Methods: In this study, the antimicrobial properties of spider silk Pholcus phalangioides produced in sterile conditions against two bacteria, Listeria monocytogenes and Esherichia coli with using well diffisiuon method and Macro Broth Dillution method was evaluated. Results: The results showed that the antimicrobial compounds present in the solution spider silk greater inhibitory effect on gram-positive bacteria L. monocytogenes than Gram-negative bacteria E. coli.

Antimicrobial Activity of Onion and Ginger against two Food Borne Pathogens Escherichia Coli and Staphylococcus Aureus

Antimicrobial properties of phytochemicals extracted from onion (Allium cepa) and ginger (Zingiber officinale) were evaluated against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus, two common food borne pathogens. They were tested using minimum inhibitory concentration, minimum bactericidal concentration disc diffusion and agar wells diffusion. Onion showed good antimicrobial properties against S....

Screening of Antagonistic Activity of Probiotic Bacteria Against Some Food-Borne Pathogens

The objectives of this study were to assess the microbiological quality of Egyptian yoghurt and to investigate the antagonistic activity of some probiotic bacteria against some food borne pathogens in vitro and in yoghurt. The results indicated a poor microbiological quality of yoghurt, since the microbiological parameters recorded higher values than the admissible levels. Results from the agar...

Antagonistic Activity of Bacillus Bacteria against Food-Borne Pathogens

Foodborne pathogens are among the most significant problems in maintaining the health of the population. In 2011 the CDC estimates that each year roughly 1 in 6 Americans (or 48 million people) gets sick, 128,000 are hospitalized, and 3,000 die of foodborne diseases. The leading causes of foodborne illnesses in the United States are Salmonella and Shigella [1,2]. Staphylococcus aureus is among ...
