Antibiofilm and Antibacterial Activity of Urginea maritima Against Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Antibacterial performance of MELITININ - BMAP27 hybrid peptide against Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains

Abstract Background and purpose: Multiple drug-resistant (MDR) bacterial strains have spread in different parts of hospitals. The aim of this study was to design and synthesize an effective hybrid peptide by combining different parts of two peptides to achieve the highest antibacterial activity and its inhibitory effect against Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa strains. Materia...

In vitro Evaluation of Methylxanthines and Some Antibiotics: Interaction against Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Background: The development of resistance to antimicrobial agents is a major problem in chemotherapy. Finding agents which potentiate antimicrobial activity could be favorable. There are some reports that methylxanthines changed the inhibitory effect of antibacterial agents. Thus, possible synergistic effect of methylxanthines, aminophylline and caffeine on some antibiotics, carbenicillin, ceft...

The antibacterial activity of the water extracts of three species of Salvia on Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa

The aim of this study was to evaluate the antibacterial activity of the water extracts of three species of Salvia (S. perspolitana, S. palaestina, S. bracteata) on Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeroginosa. The antibacterial activity of water extracts of the studied species on the bacterial strains was examined using well diffusion method and minimum inhibitory concentr...

Antimicrobial and Antibiofilm activity of Enzybiotic against Staphylococcus aureus

Background: Biofilms are communities of microorganisms embedded in a self produced polymeric matrix composed of polysaccharide, protein and DNA, adhered to inert or living surfaces. Researchers have focused on understanding the complex nature of biofilm and their reduced susceptibility to antibiotics. The use of biomaterials and indwelling medical devices like catheters increase probability of ...
