Recently, the potential antibacterial or antibiofilm effects of some plant species belonging to Cistus sp. have motivated investigation their use as herbal remedies. In this study, activities aqueous (dH2O) leaf extracts laurifolius L., C. creticus L. and salviifolius on pathogenic microorganisms with biofilm forming ability were investigated. Biofilm pathogen test evaluated by congo red agar m...

Traditional Sicilian cheese productions are carried out employing traditional wooden vats, called tina. Many studies have highlighted the beneficial role of wooden dairy equipment by contributing to enriching the milk microflora and improving the acidification processes. The present work was undertaken to evaluate the safety of the wooden vats used to coagulate milk. To this purpose, the differ...

Synthesis of a series of novel hexahydrochromenopyrrole analogues has been accomplished through an intramolecular 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition (1,3-DC reaction) of azomethine ylides, generated by the aldehyde induced decarboxylation of secondary amino acids. These compounds were screened for antibacterial and antifungal activities against six human pathogenic bacteria and three human pathogenic fu...

A microbial pathogen is a potentially armed opportunist entity to colonize intestinal mucosa. They have phenomenal ability to evolve and adapt accordingly which further seizes signalling molecules and pathways of host to become pathogenic. In order to colonize mucosal layer, they need to cross the physicochemical barrier formed by intestinal epithelium. This gastrointestinal (GI) epithelium wit...

Studying the relationship between rhizosphere microorganisms and root exudates is of great significance for interaction plants, prevention control soil-borne diseases. This article analyzed effects different on tobacco microorganisms. It was found that bacterial wilt pathogen can greatly increase acids amines, while probiotic B. amyloliquefaciens ZM9 eliminate some amines. The results study sho...

Beneficial bacteria, often used as probiotics, play efficient role in providing protection against pathogenic microorganisms in humans. Probiotic bacteria like many Lactobacillus sp. (L. acidophilus, L. casei etc.), Bafidobacterium sp. Streptococcus thermophiles, Bacillus coagulans, etc. are beneficial and nowadays are used as supportive therapeutics. Even Lactobacillus is highlighted for showi...

We have developed a Multi-Pathogen Identification (MPID) microarray for high confidence identification of eighteen pathogenic prokaryotes, eukaryotes and viruses. Analysis of amplified products from pathogen genomic DNA using microarray hybridization allows for highly specific and sensitive detection, and allows the discrimination between true amplification products and false positive amplifica...

Diclofenac 2(2,6 dichloranilino) phenylacetic acid is a widely prescribed non-steroidal anti inflammatory drug. It is used to reduce pain and treat inflammation in some disorders like rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, ankylosing spondilytis, gout, dysmenorrhea, spondylarthritis etc., It acts by inhibiting the action of cycloxygenase enzymes COX-1 and COX-2 which are responsible for the synt...
