background: the repetitive use of antibiotics in different fields (veterinary and medicine) improves the emergence and occurrence of the resistance phenomenon in pathogenic bacteria. due to the problem of antimicrobial resistance, it is an urgent need to discover new drugs and alternative treatments for the control of bacterial diseases in aquaculture. objectives: the purpose of this study is t...

Objective(s): Antibacterial materials are so significant in the textile industry, water disinfection, medicine, and food packaging. Unfortunately, organic compounds for sterilization show toxicity to the human body; therefore, the interest in inorganic disinfectants such as metal oxide nanoparticles (NPs) is increasing. Materials and Methods: Nickel and nickel hydroxide nanoparticles (NiNPs ...

OBJECTIVE Isolation of potentially pathogenic bacteria from carpets in hospitals has been reported earlier, but not from carpets in mosques. The aim of the present study is to determine the pathogenic and potentially pathogenic bacteria that may exist on the carpets of mosques in Tripoli, Libya. METHODS Dust samples from carpets were collected from 57 mosques in Tripoli. Samples were examined...

Cycas circinalis L commonly known as Queen Sago a member of the cycad family, was investigated for antibacterial activity against important human pathogenic bacteria viz., Bacillus cereus (MTCC 1272), Staphylococcus aureus (MTCC 7443), Escherichia coli (MTCC 7410) and important plant pathogenic bacteria Xanthomonas axonapodis pv malvacearum (Isolated from cotton plant). The ovule of Cycas circi...

Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) are gram positive and non- spore forming bacteria that can produce some special substances for growth inhibition of pathogenic, non-pathogenic and food spoilage bacteria. The aim of this study was to determine the inhibitory effects of Lactobacillus acidophilus PTCC1643 (DSM 20079) and Lactobacillus plantarum PTCC 1058 (ATCC 8014) cultural supernatants against urinary...

Background: Researchers are seeking new plant compounds as an alternative to chemical drugs and antibiotics due to the increasing resistance of pathogenic bacteria to antibiotics. This study investigated the antibacterial effect of Plantago ovata and Lallemantia iberica L. seed extracts on some foodborne human pathogenic bacteria. Materials and Methods: Disk-diffusion antibiotic sensitivity te...

Target analysis of acivicin derived 3-halodihydroisoxazoles scaffolds in living non-pathogenic and pathogenic bacteria.
