during the last two decades, various medicinal plants have been studied for their possible antimicrobial activity to discover new antimicrobial agents capable of resolving problems such as the development of drug resistance in pathogenic microorganisms as well as the side effects of some present antibiotics. in this study, the antibacterial activity of methanolic extract of t. pubescens (rich i...

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infection is a global health problem that needs to be answered by developing synthetic or natural antibacterial overcome the problem. The honey pineapple peel contains potentially compounds such as bromelain and flavonoid. This study aims determine activity of extract (Ananas comosus [L] Merr.) against MRSA. design this was true experimental wi...

actinomycetes were isolated from marine sediment samples collected from the east coast of chennai, tamil nadu, india. well diffusion and agar plug methods were used for the evaluation of antibiotic production by these isolates against drug resistant methicillin- resistant staphylococcus aureus (mrsa) and vancomycin resistant enterococci (vre). the potential isolate vitbrk2 was mass cultured for...

The present investigation was carried out to evaluate the antibacterial activity of leaf and root silver nanoparticles synthesized using different solvents. According our studies AgNPs Strychons nux vomica from solvent extract revealed possess significant comparing exhibited by extract. Among AgNPS tested, ethyl acetate showed highest inhibitory acetone methanol extracts. based zone inhibition ...

Abstract Objectives To investigate if the addition of cloxacillin to vancomycin enhances activity both monotherapies for treating MSSA and MRSA experimental endocarditis (EE) in rabbits. Methods Vancomycin plus was compared with respective daptomycin. In vitro time–kill studies were performed using standard (105 cfu) high (108 inocula five MRSA, one glycopeptide-intermediate (GISA) strains. One...

In an effort to discover an alternative antibiotic for treating infections with methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), Pseudomonas sp. UJ-6, a marine bacterium that exhibited antibacterial activity against MRSA, was isolated. The culture broth and its ethyl acetate extract exhibited bactericidal activity against MRSA. The extract also exhibited antibacterial activity against gram-n...

Sir, Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) causes serious public health problems throughout the world. Moreover, the susceptibility of MRSA to vancomycin, the ‘last resort’ antibiotic, has recently been shown to be reduced, necessitating the development of alternative post-vancomycin antibiotics and other chemotherapeutic agents. In a previous study to identify new types of antibac...

Objective(s): To address the alarming problem of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), herein, a marine Streptomyces capable of producing an anti-MRSA compound has been studied.Materials and Methods: Strain MN41 was morphologically and physiologically characterized and then, molecularly identified using 16SrRNA analysis. To...

Abstract: Background: Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), known to be highly resistant bacterium, leading dreadful infections with limited treatment options. Objectives: The current study mainly focused investigate the anti-staphylococcal activity of Ficus benghalensis methanolic bark (FBMB) extract against (MRSA). Materials and Methods: assessment was performed by agar well dif...
