Background and Objective: The endophytes are the fungi or bacteria that live within a plant in a symbiotic relationship. This study aimed to investigate the effect of isolated bacterial endophytes from Allium jesdianum on some bacterial pathogens such as Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli as well as pathogenic fungi, including Trichophyton mentagrophytes and Candida albicans. Materials an...

objective: the present study was carried out to determine the most potent available antimicrobials in the treatment of pathogens of reproductive health importance in nigeria. material and methods: using the agar disc-diffusion and modified agar well-diffusion methods, bacterial and fungal pathogens obtained from clinical specimens of female patients presenting at the university college hospital...

objectives this study explored the qualitative and quantitative antibacterial potential of c. intybus. further qualitative analysis of phytochemical content was performed. methods cichorium intybus seed extracts were prepared in aqueous, chloroform, ethanol, and hexane separately. results all the extracts of c. intybus seeds were screened for antibacterial activity and phytochemical content. ci...

antimicrobial resistance in pathogens not only in hospitals but also in the community has become an important public health problem. the aim of this study was to determine the antimicrobial resistance patterns of predominant pathogens from hospitalized and outpatients in a university hospital in tehran, iran. a total of 820 samples of common gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria were collect...

background urinary tract infection (uti) is one of the most common bacterial diseasesworldwidethat can be presented asymptomatic or symptomatic, characterized by a wide range of symptoms from mild irritative voiding to bacteremia, sepsis, or even death. in latter decades, widespread utilization of antibiotics has resulted in increased incidence of antibiotic resistance among urinary tract patho...

  Antibiotics are the best known products of actinomycete. Over 5,000 antibiotics have been identified from the cultures of Gram positive and Gram-negative organisms, and filamentous fungi, but only about 100 antibiotics have commercially been used to treat human, animal and plant diseases. The genus, Streptomycete, is responsible for the formation of more than 60% of known antibiotics. Bacteri...

background trachyspermum ammi or carum copticum, commonly known as ajowan or ajwain is a plant used as a spice. thymol, the major phenolic compound present in ajowan is known as a strong germicide and anti-spasmodic. it is also used for cleaning the wounds and treating skin infections. objectives here, we aimed to study the inhibitory effects of ajowan essential oil on microorganisms like esche...

mastitis, inflammatory disease of mammary glands, can be caused by various microorganisms. many antimicrobial agents have been evaluated to combat the causative agents. development of resistance in pathogens against conventional antibiotics may be high; hence at present study in vitro efficacy of a new fluoroquinolone antibiotic (marbofloxacin) against isolated pathogens from clinical mastitis ...
