Antibacterial Properties of Ozonated Sunflower (Helianthus Annuus l.) and Sesame (Sesamum Indicum L.) Oils on Staphylococcus Aureus

Background and Aims: Staphylococcus aureus infection needs long-term treatment with antibiotics which may cause adverse effects on many body organs and antibiotics resistance. Therefore, the use of natural and herbal compounds has been under consideration. Materials and Methods: In the present study, the effects of sunflower (Helianthus annuus) and sesame (Sesamum indicum) oils were assessed o...

Fatty acid profile of ewe’s milk infected with Staphylococcus spp.

Background: Mastitis in sheep caused by Staphylococcus spp. is a serious concern for dairy farming. Aims: The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of the intramammary infection (IMI) caused by Staphylococcus spp. on the long-chain fatty acid profile and composition of ewe’s milk. Methods: The experiment was conducted in a herd of Zoslachtena Valaska sheep. Half-udder milk samples ...

Effect of photodynamic therapy on clinical isolates of Staphylococcus spp.

Staphylococcus spp. are opportunistic microorganisms known for their capacity to develop resistance against antimicrobial agents. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of photodynamic therapy (PDT) on 20 Staphylococcus strains isolated from the human oral cavity, including S. aureus, S. schleiferi, S. epidermidis, S. capitis, S. haemolyticus, and S. lentus. A suspension of each...

Antimicrobial resistance in Staphylococcus spp

Staphylococcus aureus and coagulase-negative Staphylococcus (CoNS) are the main agents of nosocomial infections. The antimicrobial resistance of these microorganisms has increased worldwide, justified by the selective pressure caused by the use of broad spectrum antibiotics. The prophylactic antibioticotherapy is also a concerning factor, because it increases the risk of infection, and difficul...
