The antibacterial activities of the essential oil of Eucalyptus globulus (EOEG) was determined against 7 fish pathogenic bacteria (Edwardsiella tarda, Streptococcus iniae, S. parauberis, Lactococcus garviae, Vibrio harveyi, V. ichthyoenteri and Photobacterium damselae) obtained from farmed olive flounder. The inhibitory activity was evaluated by three methods: Disc diffusion method, minimum inh...

conclusions the synergistic effect was found on the healing of infected wounds caused by s. aureus by using an mbp-1 and silver nanoparticles combination in a mouse model. results the mic and mbc of mbp-1 were found to be 0.6 and 0.7 mg/ml, respectively. mic and mbc of silver nanoparticles were determined to be 6.25 and 12.5 mg/l, respectively. mic and mbc of the silver nanoparticles and mbp-1 ...

Introduction:  Nowadays  the  medical,  therapeutic  and  pharmacological  application  of  magnetic  fields  (MF)  and  its  biological  effect  has  raised  question  about  the  safety  of  MF.  This  study  aimed  at  scrutinizing the effect of static MF on the resistance of S. aureus to antibiotic.  Materials and Methods: This prospective, case–control study was conducted to evaluate the e...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Emergence of resistant microbial strains due to the consumption of chemical preservatives and medications, as well as uncertainty about the consumption of foods containing synthetic preservatives, have resulted in the growing popularity of natural preservatives. This study aimed to identify the chemichal compounds found in the essence of Persian hogweed (Heracleum pers...

The antibacterial activity of 80% ethanol extracts of 10 medicinal plants collected in Yunnan (Southwest China), was tested against clinical isolates of extended-spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing strains. Their MIC values ranged between 1.56-12.50 mg/mL. The most active plant extract was Chelidonium majus L. (MIC = 1.56 mg/mL). Two potent isoquinoline alkaloids, 8-hydroxydihydrosanguinarine...

There are only few studies on the antibacterial activity of red fruit extract (Pandanus conoideus Lam) against oral pathogenic bacteria. Thus, this study aims to determine effectiveness extracts by looking at Minimum inhibitory Concentrations (MIC) and Minimal Bactericidal (MBC) periodontal The subjects were Streptococcus mutans (ATCC 25175), Fusobacterium nucleatum 25586), Porphyromonas gingiv...

Abstract Staphylococcus aureus is one of the most common pathogens in biofilm-associated chronic infections. S. living within biofilms evades host immune response and more resistant to antibiotics than planktonic bacteria. In this study, we generated with low high levels biofilm formation using rbf (regulator formation) gene performed a BioTimer assay determine minimum inhibitory concentration ...

This study aimed to investigate the chemical composition of steam distillate essential oil and corresponding hydrolate obtained from S. officinalis grown in Serbia, as well influence weather conditions (temperature precipitations) on their profiles. Furthermore, antimicrobial activity was investigated vitro. The main compounds were cis-thujone, followed by camphor, trans-thujone, 1,8-cineole, w...

This study was carried out to investigate the potential use of Artemisia arborescens as a source of antimicrobial agents against pathogens. Essential oils of A. arborescens were collected by hydrodistillation. The antibacterial properties of A. arborescens essential oil was studied on the standard gram-negative bacteria (Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa), and Staphylococcus aureus (g...
