Antimicrobial activity of Uncaria tomentosa against oral human pathogens.
Uncaria tomentosa is considered a medicinal plant used over centuries by the peruvian population as an alternative treatment for several diseases. Many microorganisms usually inhabit the human oral cavity and under certain conditions can become etiologic agents of diseases. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the antimicrobial activity of different concentrations of Uncaria tomentosa o...
متن کاملIn vitro antimicrobial activity of phytotherapic Uncaria tomentosa against endodontic pathogens.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the antimicrobial activity of Uncaria tomentosa (Willd.) DC (cat's claw) against Enterococcus faecalis, Staphylococcus aureus, and Candida albicans. Suspensions with 10(8) cells/ml of each microorganism were plated in triplicate on Mueller-Hinton agar. Wells in the agar were made and filled with 2% chlorhexidine (CHX) gel, 2% cat's claw (CC) gel, 2% CHX+CC,...
متن کاملAntimicrobial activity of kaurane diterpenes against oral pathogens.
Two kaurane diterpenes, ent-kaur-16(17)-en-19-oic acid (KA) and 15-beta-isovaleryloxy-ent-kaur-16(17)-en-19-oic acid (KA-Ival), isolated from Aspilia foliacea, and the methyl ester derivative of KA (KA-Me) were evaluated against oral pathogens. KA was the most active compound, with MIC values of 10 microg mL(-1) against the following microorganisms: Streptococcus sobrinus, Streptococcus mutans,...
متن کاملBiosynthesis and Antimicrobial Activity of Semiconductor Nanoparticles against Oral Pathogens
Dental care is an essential phenomenon in human health. Oral pathogens can cause severe break which may show the way to serious issues in human disease like blood circulation and coronary disease. In the current study, we demonstrated the synthesis and antimicrobial activity of cadmium sulphide and zinc sulphide nanoparticles against oral pathogens. The process for the synthesis of cadmium sulp...
متن کاملSynergistic antimicrobial activity of apigenin against oral Pathogens
Although a broad range of biological and pharmacological activities of apigenin have been reported, the mechanism(s) behind its antibacterial effects are not fully understood. In this study, we investigated the synergistic antibacterial activity of apigenin in combination with existing antimicrobial agents against oral bacteria. The combination effect of apigenin was evaluated against oral bact...
