In the present study, the antimicrobial tests of patchouli oil were studied by using molecular docking technology and antimicrobial test in vitro. Five biological macromolecule enzymes, required by the bacteria in the process of biosynthesis were selected as target molecules. Five antibiotics benzylpenicillin, sulfadiazine, trimethoprim, rifampicin and ciprofloxacin, which are generally acknowle...

Soft candy is a type of confectionery product that has chewy texture. Chewing can stimulate the activity salivary secretion, thus it supports release active compounds in mouth. Essential oil contains are able to control bacteria growth may cause bad breath. The purpose this study was observe antimicrobial soft with addition basil essential (0.2%, 0.4%, 0.6%, and 0.8%) against Streptococcus muta...

PROBLEM In Thailand, antimicrobial resistance has formed a small component of national drug policies and strategies on emerging infectious diseases. However, poor coordination and a lack of national goals and monitoring and evaluation platforms have reduced the effectiveness of the corresponding national actions. APPROACH On the basis of local evidence and with the strong participation of rel...

Human beta-defensins 2 and 3 (HBD-2 and HBD-3) are inducible peptides present at sites of infection in the oral cavity. A few studies have reported broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity for both peptides. However, no comprehensive study has thoroughly investigated their potential against oral pathogens. The purpose of this study was to test the effectiveness of HBD-2 and HBD-3 against a collect...

BACKGROUND Primary Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection occurs predominantly in childhood. Antimicrobial resistance is the leading cause for H. pylori eradication failure. The aims of this study were (i) to establish for the first time the antimicrobial resistance of H. pylori strains in infected Slovenian children not previously treated for H. pylori infection and (ii) to evaluate the eff...

Statement of problem Denture base resins (DBRs), such as polymethyl methacrylate, are commonly used in the fabrication removable dentures because their physical, mechanical, and esthetic properties. However, denture acts a substrate for microorganism adherence biofilm formation, which may lead to stomatitis be further complicated by fungal infections, especial importance with geriatric immunosu...

An antimicrobial-surface kinetic test which maximizes probability of cell-to-surface contact has been developed. The measurement of rate of kill by a nonleaching antimicrobial surface is based on the number of surviving bacterial cells at specific times of exposure to various amounts of total treated surface area of test substrate. This method gives information for direct comparison of rate of ...
