results ll-37 and its truncated analogs were effective in inhibiting the growth of pdrab and had a rapid killing ability. after exposure to the peptides, the development of the pdrab biofilm was inhibited. strong inhibitory and dispersion effects of ff/cap18 on the biofilm were confirmed by fluorescence microscopy and field emission scanning electron microscopy. conclusions this results show th...

Abstract.
 
 Multidrug resistance is still a major health problem worldwide. Biofilm formation was related to the of bacteria mechanism. Acinetobacter baumannii, one that cause nosocomial infections, given particular attention due its high prevalence resistance. The current study address observing antibacterial activity and antibiofilm Curcuma domestica rhizome extract against multidr...

BACKGROUND Wound infections caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus are a health problem worldwide; therefore, it is necessary to develop new antimicrobial compounds. Considering broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity and low probability of drug resistance to peptides, applications these peptides are being studied extensively. OBJECTIVES In this study, to control drug release ove...

background many efforts have been made by researchers to find new antibiotics which are clinically useful against bacteria and drug resistant microorganisms. objectives we aimed to evaluate the antimicrobial effects of hydroalcoholic extracts of leaves and seeds of the portulaca oleracea plant in traditional medicine of sistan region, southeast of iran. materials and methods in this cross-secti...

The minimal bactericidal concentrations of N-formimidoyl thienamycin (N-f-thienamycin) against 21 strains of enterococci isolated from patients with infective endocarditis were determined by macro- and microdilution methods. By a macrodilution technique with the minimal bactericidal concentration defined as greater than or equal to 99.9% killing of an initial inoculum, all 21 strains of enteroc...

As part of the Tigecycline Evaluation and Surveillance Trial (T.E.S.T) we report the in vitro activity of tigecycline and its comparators against Gram-negative and Gram-positive organisms collected from Italian centers between 2012 and 2014. Minimum inhibitory concentrations were determined according to the broth microdilution methodology of the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute, and ...

Background & Aim:Vaginal disease has always been a great concern of women. Medicinal plants as natural resources with fewer side effects can effectively treat these infections given the diversity of these infections, resistance to antibiotics and side effects of existing drugs. The present study aimed to compare antimicrobial effects of methanol extract of Francoeuria Undul...

The antibacterial activity of two bisbenzylisoquinoline alkaloids, tetrandrine (Tet) and demethyltetrandrine (d-Tet), alone and in combination with the antibiotics ampicillin (AMP), azithromycin (AZM), cefazolin (CFZ) and levofloxacin (LEV) against 10 clinical isolates of staphylococcal chromosomal cassette mec (SCCmec) III type methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) was studied. Su...
