The antibacterial activity of cefminox (CMNX) against anaerobic bacteria was studied in vitro. The results are as follows: 1. CMNX exerted antibacterial activity against a wide range of anaerobes, excluding Clostridium innocuum. The antibacterial activity of CMNX against Bacteroides fragilis was comparable to that of latamoxef and superior to cefoxitin, but CMNX's activity against anaerobic coc...

in the present study, we reported the essential oils chemical composition and antibacterial activities of the aerial parts of ajuga chamaecistus ging. ex benth. subsp. scoparia (boiss.) rech.f. thatwere collected duringmay 2013 and april 2014 and extracted by sde (simultaneous distillation–extraction) and clevenger apparatus. gc/ms analysis of the plant essential oils led to the identification ...

The nonperoxide antibacterial activity of honey and honey fractions was tested with Staphylococcus aureus and Micrococcus luteus bacterial species. Antibacterial activity correlated significantly with the honey acidity but did not correlate with honey pH. There were small differences between the antibacterial activities of different honey types: rhododendron, eucalyptus and orange honeys had a ...

abstract background antibiotic resistance makes antimicrobial peptides (amps) agents an alternative for treatment of pathogenic diseases. they are isolated from various animals invertebrates, vertebrates and plants. the present study shows the electrophoretic pattern of protein and peptides from vicia faba seed and reports our first attempt to study the antibacterial activity of vicia faba seed...

in this study, a functional colorant, berberine, extracted from berberis vulgaris wood was applied onto wool fiber using the extract of roots of rumex hymenosepolus as biomordant. the effect of treatment variables on the color strength of dyed fibers was examined. the fastness properties of dyed wool against washing, light, dry and wet rubbing were evaluated. dyed samples were tested for antiba...

A novel furanone derivative and a polyacid constructed from it were synthesized, characterized and formulated into experimental high strength cements. The compressive strength (CS) and Streptococcus mutans viability were used to evaluate the mechanical strength and antibacterial activity of the cements. The effect of human saliva and aging were investigated. The antibacterial activity against L...

background and objectives: dental caries is still remained as a major health problem. this problem has created a new interest to search for new antimicrobial agents from various sources including medicinal plants. since limited data is available so far regarding the antibacterial effect of coriandrum sativum seed and dentol drop against streptococcus mutans, this study aims to assess this activ...

Aquatics are a source of bioactive compounds that these compounds have different properties such as antimicrobial activity. In this study, antibacterial activity of methanol, chloroform and hexane extracts from body wall, gonad and intestine of sea cucumber Holothuria leucospilota was evaluated against Bacillus subtilis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus. Bioactive compounds of b...

Ronidazole, a nitroimidazole that has in vivo antiparasitic and antimycoplasmal activity, also has some in vivo antibacterial activity.

The aim of this study was to investigate the antibacterial activity of chitooligosaccharide, prepared by partial acid hydrolysis of chitosan, and of an aminoglycosylated derivative, prepared by reductive alkylation of the chitooligosaccharide, against E. coli and S. aureus.
