چکیده

tigecycline is a new glycylcycline antibiotic structurally similar to minocycline antibiotic. it has broad spectrum activity, including staphylococcus aureus infections. this is the first study that evaluated the activity of tigecycline against staphylococcus aureus isolated from biological samples in iran. in vitro activity of tigecycline against 160 staphylococcus aureus including 99 methicillin-resistant s. aureus and 61 methicillin-susceptible s. aureus from inpatients at imam khomeini hospital, tehran, iran was assessed. bacterial susceptibility tests were performed by the disk diffusion method and also e-test for methicillin-resistant s. aureus isolates. all isolated had inhibition zone of ? 19 mm, with the minimum inhibitory concentration 50 (mic50) and mic90 of 0.19 and 0.5 ?g/ml, respectively. the study results indicated that all methicillin-resistant s. aureus and methicillin-susceptible s. aureus isolates were susceptible to tigecycline.

In-vitro and In-vivo Evaluation of Silymarin Nanoliposomes against Isolated Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus

Staphylococcus aureus is an opportunistic pathogen and remains a common cause of burn wound infections. Different studies have shown that entrapment of plant-derived compounds into liposomes could increase their anti-Staphylococcus aureus activity. Silymarin is the bioactive extract from the known plant Silybum marianum L. The objective of this study was to evaluate efficacy of silymarin in fre...
