Terfizia claveryi was examined for in vitro antibacterial activity using the disc diffusion, well diffusion method, minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC). T. claveryi exhibited excellent antibacterial activity against all clinical isolates of corneal ulcer tested, especially against Pseudomonas aeruginosa which showed the maximum antibacterial activ...

Hancornia speciosa Gomes (Apocynaceae) is a fruit tree, popularly known as mangabeira, and it is widely distributed throughout Brazil. Several parts of the plant are used in folk medicine, and the leaf and bark extracts have anti-inflammatory, antihypertensive, antidiabetic, and antimicrobial properties. In this study, we investigated the chemical composition of the ethanolic extract of Hancorn...

This study aims to determine the chemical and physical composition antibacterial activity of glasswort. Soxhlet extraction S. europaea was performed using Hexane analyzed by Gas chromatographymass spectrometry. Alpha-tocopherol content analysed Liquid chromatography with tandem mass The elemental analysis investigated inductively coupled plasma crystallographic texture powder samples were deter...

Abstract Bioproduction options for nanoparticles are becoming a highly significant subject, with environmental and economic benefits over physical chemical processes. The purpose of the current study is to detect antimicrobial activity chitosan-Graphene oxide that include Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) method determining antibacterial activity, Antibiofilm Activity by Tissue culture pla...

BACKGROUND Inspiratory bulbospinal neurons in the caudal ventral medulla are premotor neurons that drive motoneurons, which innervate pump muscles such as the diaphragm and external intercostals. Excitatory drive to these neurons is mediated by N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA) receptors and alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazole-4-propionate (AMPA) receptors and is modulated by an inhibitory gamma-...

Dentifrices can augment oral hygiene by inactivating bacteria and at sub-lethal concentrations may affect bacterial metabolism, potentially inhibiting acidogenesis, the main cause of caries. Reported herein is the development of a rapid method to simultaneously measure group-specific bactericidal and acidogenesis-mitigation effects of dentifrices on oral bacteria. Saliva was incubated aerobical...

Purpose: The ethanol extract of the leaves of Stachys pseudopinardii R. Bhattacharjee and Hub.–Mor. (Lamiaceae) were investigated for their antimicrobial activities. Methods: The antimicrobial activity of the leaf extract of the plant was tested against Bacillus subtilis ATCC 6633, Bacillus cereus ATCC 7064, Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 6538P, Escherichia coli ATCC 10538, Proteus vulgaris ATCC 68...

Background: Various herbal products are being tried to treat common ailments. Such a trend is witnessed in dentistry also. gall extract of Quercus infectoria has been found to possess antibacterial properties against some common oral pathogens. Aim: to assess the antibacterial property and minimum inhibitory concentration (MIc) of gall extract of Quercus infectoria against Enterococcus faecalis...
