چکیده

conclusions results of this study suggest that the extract alone of peganum harmala and heracleum persicum may be useful to treat bacterial infections. objectives the major aim of the current study was to investigate the antimicrobial activity of an extract of the peganum harmala flower and heracleum persicum against acinetobacter baumannii. materials and methods the minimum inhibitory (mic) concentrations minimum bactericidal concentration of extract and essential oil were investigated by microdilution method and antibiotic resistance was evaluated using the disk diffusion test. results in this study, the levels of mic extract and essential oil of peganum harmala were observed in ranges from 6.25 ppm to 12.5 ppm and 3.1 ppm to 25 ppm, respectively. the highest mic value was observed as 12.5 ppm in a. baumannii. the levels of mic extract and essential oil of heracleum persicum were observed in ranges from 5 ppm to 20 ppm and 12.5 ppm to 10 ppm, respectively. the highest level of mic extract and the highest essential oil value of heracleum persicum were observed as 20 ppm and 10 ppm, respectively, in a. baumannii. background the extracts of many plants have been used for their applications in the prevention of bacterial growth; however, these applications need more investigations.

Exploring the Antimicrobial Action of Quaternary Amines against Acinetobacter baumannii

Quaternary amine compounds (QAC) are potent antimicrobials used to prevent the spread of pathogenic bacteria. While they are known for their membrane-damaging properties, QAC action has been suggested to extend beyond the surface to intracellular targets. Here we characterize the range of action of the QAC biocide benzalkonium chloride (BZK) against the bacterial pathogen Acinetobacter baumanni...
