conclusions the kin gingival chlorhexidine mouthwash has a greater effect than behsa and boht mouthwashes on oral microorganisms and is recommended to be used for plaque chemical inhibition. results the mics for kin gingival, behsa and boht mouthwashes were 0.14, 0.48 and 1000 micrograms/ml using the tube method for s. mutans, respectively. the mbcs for the mentioned mouthwashes were 0.23, 1.9 ...

the infections risk related to pathogenic germs increases at the present time considering the increased resistance which certain microbes acquire, whose usual antibiotics are ineffective to treat the infectious disease. the aim of this study was to determine antimicrobial effect of the aqueous and ethanolic extracts of lavandula stoechas l. and rosmarinus officinalis l. on listeria monocytogene...

results based on these findings on agar diffusion with (p = 0.764), mic and mfc tests (p = 0.879), there were no significant differences between the antifungal effect of herbal and chemical mouthwashes. conclusions this study showed that, chemical mouthwashes acted better than herbal mouthwashes and among different chemical mouthwashes, oral b was most effective. objectives the aim of the curre...

background and objectives: resistance towards reveling antibiotics has captured great interest in evaluating the antimicrobial properties of the natural plants. taraxacum mongolicum is widely used as a folklore medicinal plant for its diuretic, antirheumatic and anti-inflammatory properties. though there are some reports on antimicrobial properties of taraxacum mongolicum, studies on antibacter...

conclusions our experimental and in silico findings may provide new insight in the complex molecular pathways of drug resistance and also could assist design an efficient therapeutic strategy for aspergillosis treatment. results four out of five isolates revealed cyp51a and mdr1 mrna overexpression. interestingly, the isolate, which was negative for cyp51a and mdr1 mrna expression showed a high...

background and purpose: candidiasis, an important fungal infection, is considered the fourth most common nosocomial blood stream infection. nowadays, because of increased fungal resistance to antibiotics, the use of herbal medicine has gained particular attention. cyclamen species are medicinal plants containing triterpenoid saponins, which are shown to have antimicrobial properties. materials ...

conclusions: with respect to the obtained results and regarding to the daily increase of the resistant microbial strains to the commercial antibiotics, it can be concluded that these extracts can be proper candidates of antibacterial substance against pathogenic bacterial species especially s. aureus, e. coli, k. pneumoniae and s. epidermidis. results: the extract of c. fistula was effective ag...
