&nbsp; <strong>Introduction:</strong>&nbsp;Bacteria and their virulence factors are the main causes of apical periodontitis after endodontic treatment<em>.</em>&nbsp;The bacteria that is often found and considered as pathogens in root canals after endodontic treatment is&nbsp;<em>Enterococcus faecalis</em>. The main goal of endodontic treatment is the elimination of microorganisms and preventing re-infection after root canal treatment which can be achieved through mechanical-chemical debridement using an irrigation solution. Basil leaves (<em>Ocimum basilicum</em>) which is an herbal plant are thought to have antibacterial compounds that can inhibit&nbsp;<em>Enterococcus faecalis</em>. This research was conducted to determine the antibacterial potential of the n-hexane extract of basil leaves against&nbsp;<em>Enterococcus faecalis</em>&nbsp;ATCC 29212.&nbsp;<strong>Methods:&nbsp;</strong>This experimental laboratory study tested the effectiveness of n-hexane extract of basil leaves (<em>Ocimum basilicum</em>) against&nbsp;<em>Enterococcus faecalis&nbsp;</em>ATCC 29212 using&nbsp;<em>disk diffusion</em>&nbsp;method with three times of repetition.&nbsp;<strong>Results:&nbsp;</strong>The results of this study indicated that the n-hexane extract of basil leaves did not have an inhibition zone against&nbsp;<em>Enterococcus faecalis&nbsp;</em>ATCC 29212.&nbsp;<strong>Discussion:&nbsp;</strong>The concentration of n-hexane extract of basil leaves was not directly proportional to the diameter of the resulting inhibition zone. This is due to several factors that can affect the test results.&nbsp;<strong>Conclusion:&nbsp;</strong>The n-hexane extract of basil leaves does not have antibacterial potential effect against&nbsp;<em>Enterococcus faecalis&nbsp;</em>ATCC 29212.

Abstract:
Introduction: Enterococcus faecalis is often found in root canal infections and can cause failure in root canal treatment. Uncaria gambier is an herbal medicine that is known to be rich in polyphenol compounds that have antibacterial properties. Because of the polyphenol content and antibacterial properties of Uncaria gambier, it can be an alternative as an antibacterial solution for root canal treatment. The purpose of this study is to analyze the antimicrobial of various solvents combinations for phytochemical fraction derived from Uncaria gambier extract against Enterococcus faecalis (ATCC 29212). Methods: This study is descriptive explorative research Uncaria gambier was extracted using a combination of three different fractions, ethyl acetate-water, hexane-water and hexane-ethyl acetate. We determine the Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) and Minimum Bactericidal Concentration (MBC) against Enterococcus faecalis (ATCC 29212) using the serial microdilution method and by add test samples to the Mueller Hinton agar medium from each fraction Results: Combination ethyl acetate-water has MIC value at 0.195 mg/ml, combination hexane-water at 0.049 mg/ml and combination hexane-ethyl acetate have the MIC value at 1.563 mg/ml. The MBC value in combination ethyl acetate-water at 25 mg/ml, combination hexane-ethyl acetate and hexane-water MBC value at 50 mg/ml and 100 mg/ml. Based on optical density measurement using ELISA reader and bacterial growth on the media used, the fraction combinations increase the antibacterial effect of Uncaria gambier against E. faecalis ATCC 29212. Conclusion: The combination of various Uncaria gambier solvents has been shown to inhibit and kill E. faecalis (ATCC 29212). The combination of ethyl acetate-water fraction is the best combination to against E. faecalis (ATCC 29212). It means that the combination of various Uncaria gambier solvents can be developed as alternative root canal irrigation.

Abstract:
The authors of this article conducted research and studied the antibacterial properties of commercial peppermint essential oil (PEO) against several gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria provided by Polish manufacturers of essential oils (Naturalne Aromaty sp. z o.o., Klaj, Poland). Therefore, to conduct research with the aim of to study the antibacterial properties of commercial peppermint essential oil (PEO), an antimicrobial susceptibility test (Kirby-Bauer diffusion test) was used to measure diameters of bacterial growth inhibition zones). In the current study, Gram-negative strains such as Escherichia coli (Migula) Castellani and Chalmers (ATCC® 25922™ ), Escherichia coli (Migula) Castellani and Chalmers (ATCC® 35218™ ), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Schroeter) Migula (ATCC® 27853™ ) and Gram-positive strains such as Staphylococcus aureus subsp. aureus Rosenbach (ATCC® 29213™ ), methicillin-resistant (MRSA), mecA positive Staphylococcus aureus (NCTC® 12493), Enterococcus faecalis (Andrewes and Horder) Schleifer and Kilpper-Balz (ATCC® 51299™ ) (resistant to vancomycin; sensitive to teicoplanin) and Enterococcus faecalis (Andrewes and Horder) Schleifer and Kilpper-Balz (ATCC® 29212™ ) were used. Results of the current study revealed that resistant to the PEO were Gram-negative bacterial strains, such as E. coli (Migula) Castellani and Chalmers (ATCC® 35218™ ) and P. aeruginosa (Schroeter) Migula (ATCC® 27853™ ) strains. The authors found that the diameters of the inhibition zones after application of PEO were similar to the control samples (96% ethanol). It was also found that after the application of REO, the increase in the diameters of the inhibition zones was 60.3% (p &lt; 0.05) for the Escherichia coli strain (Migula) Castellani and Chalmers (ATCC® 25922™ ) compared to control samples (96% ethanol ). Accordingly, Gram-positive strains such as S. aureus subsp. aureus Rosenbach (ATCC® 29213™ ) and methicillin-resistant S. aureus (NCTC® 12493) were equally resistant to PEO, similarly. On the other hand, Enterococcus faecalis (Andrewes and Horder) Schleifer and Kilpper-Balz (ATCC® 29212™ ) and Enterococcus faecalis (Andrewes and Horder) Schleifer and Kilpper-Balz (ATCC® 51299™ ) were sensitive to PEO. After the application of PEO, the largest diameters of inhibition zones were observed for the E. faecalis strain. The results suggest that commercial peppermint essential oil provided by Polish essential oil manufacturers (Naturalne Aromaty sp. z o.o., Kłaj, Poland) possesses some noteworthy antimicrobial properties. In vivo studies are necessary to calculate the effective dose of EOs and determine their possible side effects and toxicity.

Abstract:
Enterococcus faecalis es un microorganismo considerado como agente etiológico de diferentes procesos infecciosos, tales como: infecciones de la piel, osteomielitis, neumonía, infecciones del tracto urinario, endocarditis, entre otros, siendo los pacientes nosocomiales una población más vulnerable a esta bacteria. El objetivo del presente estudio fue evaluar la actividad antibacteriana in vitro de extractos metanólicos y clorofórmicos de las plantas Peperomia galioides, Otholobium mexicanum, Zingiber officinale y Rosmarinus officinalis frente a Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 29212, Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 51299 (resistente a la vancomicina) y una cepa clínica de Enterococcus faecalis. Para la evaluación de esta bioactividad se utilizó la metodología de microdilución y puntos de corte establecidos por la CLSI (2021) para Enterococcus faecalis y los resultados obtenidos se expresaron en IC50. El IC50 de mayor interés se obtuvo con el extracto clorofórmico de Otholobium mexicanum frente a la cepa clínica, siendo de 2.050 μg/mL, considerándose como muy activo. El IC50 más destacable de Peperomia galioides se obtuvo con el extracto clorofórmico frente a la cepa clínica con un valor de 8.248 μg/mL, considerándolo como ligeramente activo. Para Rosmarinus officinalis, solo el extracto metanólico mostró una ligera actividad antibacteriana con un IC50 de 20.234 μg/mL frente a Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 29212. Finalmente, todos los extractos de Zingiber officinale no mostraron actividad frente a las concentraciones probadas de las diferentes cepas de Enterococcus faecalis. Los resultados obtenidos son de gran relevancia ya que pueden ser aplicados para la producción de antimicrobianos a partir de fuentes naturales que podrían tener aplicación dentro de la industria farmacéutica, veterinaria o agrícola.

Abstract:
Antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) should be conducted in a standardized manner prior to the start of an antimicrobial treatment. For fastidious bacteria, such as porcine Mycoplasma (‘Mesomycoplasma’) spp., specifically M. hyorhinis, neither guidelines or standards for the performance of AST, nor quality control strains for the validation of AST results are approved by organizations like the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) or the European Committee on Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing (EUCAST). The CLSI- and EUCAST-approved quality control strains Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 29212 and Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 29213 were chosen to validate AST by broth microdilution using modified Friis broth, developed as growth medium for porcine Mycoplasma (‘Mesomycoplasma’) spp. The antimicrobial agents doxycycline, enrofloxacin, erythromycin, florfenicol, gentamicin, marbofloxacin, tetracycline, tiamulin, tilmicosin, tulathromycin, and tylosin were examined using customized SensititreTM microtiter plates. Minimal inhibitory concentrations, determined after 24, 48, and 72 h, were mostly within the CLSI-approved quality control ranges for defined antimicrobial agents. We propose the use of the combination of E. faecalis ATCC 29212 and S. aureus ATCC 29213 as surrogate quality control strains for the validation of future AST results obtained for M. hyorhinis by broth microdilution using modified Friis broth.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT To assess the potential for emergence of resistance during the use of linezolid, we tested 10 clinical isolates of vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE) (four Enterococcus faecalis, fiveEnterococcus faecium, and one Enterococcus gallinarum) as well as a vancomycin-susceptible control (ATCC 29212) strain of E. faecalis. The enterococci were exposed to doubling dilutions of linezolid for 12 passes. After the final passage, the linezolid plate growing VRE contained a higher drug concentration with E. faecalis than with E. faecium. DNA sequencing of the 23S rRNA genes revealed that linezolid resistance in three E. faecalis isolates was associated with a guanine to uracil transversion at bp 2576, while the one E. faecium isolate for which the MIC was 16 μg/ml contained a guanine to adenine transition at bp 2505.

Abstract:
Objective: Teixobactin and its analogues are a new class of antibiotics that have no detectable bacterial resistance. This study was designed to determine the antibacterial and antibiofilm activities of a novel teixobactin analogue, L-Chg10-teixobactin, against two strains of Enterococcus faecalis (E. faecalis). Materials and Methods: The efficacy of L-Chg10-teixobactin against two strains of E. faecalis (ATCC 29212 and 47077) was determined using Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute methods. L-Chg10-teixobactin was prepared at a stock concentration of 1 mg/mL in 5% DMSO. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) was calculated using a two-fold serial broth dilution method, utilizing a 96-well plate. The minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) was determined by plating the bacteria onto agar to define the concentration that resulted in 99.9% of bacterial death. Ampicillin was used as the control. The effect of L-Chg10-teixobactin on the inhibition of ATCC 47077 strain biofilm formation was determined by measuring the minimum biofilm inhibitory concentration (MBIC) using the safranin assay, while the eradication of the preformed biofilm was determined by measuring the minimum biofilm eradication concentration (MBEC) using the XTT assay. For nonlinear data, the log dose–response curve was plotted to calculate the optimum concentration using Excel (version 16.51, Microsoft® excel. 2021, Microsoft Corporation, Reymond, WA, USA). The data are presented as mean ± standard deviation (SD). Results: The MIC and MBC values of L-Chg10-teixobactin against both strains of E. faecalis were 0.8 μg/mL. The MIC of ampicillin was 1.25 μg/mL for ATCC 29212 and ranged from 1.25 to 5 μg/mL for ATCC 47077. The MBC of ampicillin for ATCC 29212 and ATCC 47077 was 10 and 20 μg/mL, respectively. The MIC and MBC of ampicillin were much higher compared with those of L-Chg10-teixobactin. The MBEC80 of L-Chg10-teixobactin was 4.60 μg/mL for ATCC 47077, which was much lower than that of ampicillin (20 μg/mL). Conclusions:L-Chg10-teixobactin demonstrated potent antibacterial and antibiofilm effects against E. faecalis, suggesting its potential role an effective antibacterial and antibiofilm agent in endodontic treatment.

Abstract Twenty-seven previously reported chalcones and their pyrazoline and hydrazone derivatives as well as two further chalcones have been screened for their antimicrobial, antifungal and antimycobacterial activities against standard microbial strains and drug resistant isolates. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) value of each compound was determined by a two-fold serial microdilution technique. The compounds were found to possess a broad spectrum of antimicrobial activities with MIC values of 8–128 μg/mL. One compound [(E)-1-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-3-p-tolylprop-2-en-1-one] had equal activity with gentamycin (8 μg/mL) against Enterococcus faecalis. Chalcones were found to be more active than their hydrazone and 2-pyrazoline derivatives against Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 29213 and E. faecalis ATCC 29212.

One health is an approach that gains importance in the protection of public health and advocates that the environment-animal-human health is linked. Microbial resistance occurring in any of these three factors circulates directly or indirectly between species and affects health. In this study, antimicrobial, anti-quorum sensing activity and potential probiotic properties of Lactobacillus acidophilus and Enterococcus faecalis 1 and 2 isolates from Apis mellifera gut were investigated. Results showed that isolates were found to be resistant to gentamicin, streptomycin, erythromycin, and clindamycin tested. It was determined that isolates were gamma haemolytic and resistant to acid and enzymatic environment conditions. Enterococcus faecalis isolates had antimicrobial activity on Escherichia coli ATCC 25922, Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 29212 and Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27853 and anti-quorum sensing activity of the culture supernatants of all isolates was detected by a violacein pigment inhibition of Chromobacterium violaceum strain.

Alexomycin, apramycin, tiamulin, tilmicosin, and tylosin were tested by broth microdilution against various National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards (NCCLS)-recommended QC organisms ( Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 29213, Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 29212, Streptococcus pneumoniae ATCC 49619, Escherichia coli ATCC 25922, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27853). In addition, disk diffusion zone diameter QC limits were determined for apramycin, enrofloxacin, and premafloxacin by using E. coli ATCC 25922, P. aeruginosa ATCC 27853, and S. aureus ATCC 25923. The results from five or six participating laboratories produced ≥99.0% of MICs and ≥95.0% of the zone diameters within suggested guidelines. The NCCLS Subcommittee for Veterinary Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing has recently approved these ranges for publication in the next M31 document.

Abstract:
Acacia honey has a number of different medicinal properties. Its antiseptic properties are used to treat conjunctivitis and other eye conditions, as well as neurodermatitis and eczema. Used regularly, acacia honey helps to lower blood pressure. It has a mild sedative effect and is beneficial for mental disorders and nervous breakdowns. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the in vitro antimicrobial activity of natural acacia honey produced by a Polish manufacturer against Gram-positive strains such as Staphylococcus aureus subsp. aureus Rosenbach (ATCC® 25923™), Enterococcus faecalis (Andrewes and Horder) Schleifer and Kilpper-Balz (ATCC® 51299™) (resistant to vancomycin; sensitive to teicoplanin) and Enterococcus faecalis (Andrewes and Horder) Schleifer and Kilpper-Balz (ATCC® 29212™) and Gram-negative strains such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Schroeter) Migula (ATCC® 27853™), Escherichia coli (Migula) Castellani and Chalmers (ATCC® 25922™), Escherichia coli (Migula) Castellani and Chalmers (ATCC® 35218™). The antibacterial activity of natural acacia honey was tested in vitro using the Kirby-Bauer disc diffusion technique. The results of the current study showed that acacia honey samples produced by a Polish manufacturer exhibited strong antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus subsp. aureus Rosenbach (ATCC® 35218™), E. faecalis (Andrewes and Horder) Schleifer and Kilpper-Balz (ATCC® 51299™) and E. faecalis (Andrewes and Horder) Schleifer and Kilpper-Balz (ATCC® 29212™) strains, with the mean zone of growth inhibition ranging from 20.1 to 35.45 mm. Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Schroeter) Migula (ATCC® 27853™), Escherichia coli (Migula) Castellani and Chalmers (ATCC® 25922™) and Staphylococcus aureus subsp. aureus Rosenbach (ATCC® 25923™) strains were resistant to acacia honey samples. The antibacterial properties of acacia honey need to be validated using model food systems. Further research could indicate whether honey has potential as a preservative in minimally processed foods.

Abstract:
In this study, La2O3 and CeO2 nanopowders were prepared using a simple and cost-effective precipitation method. Wide-angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD), UV-Visible reflectance diffuses (UV-Vis DRS), Raman spectroscopy, and specific surface area were used to characterize the photocatalysts, evidencing that the used preparation method was effective in the generation of crystalline CeO2 and La2O3. In particular, WAXD results showed that the average crystallite size of the achieved La2O3 and CeO2 samples were about 22 nm and 28 nm, respectively. The photocatalytic performances of the prepared catalysts were investigated in the degradation of levofloxacin (LEV) and the inactivation of a waterborne pathogen levofloxacin resistant (Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 29212) by using a photoreactor equipped with a solar simulator (SS). After 120 min, the CeO2 and La2O3 photocatalytic treatments allowed us to achieve between 75% and 83% of levofloxacin removal, respectively. A complete removal of 106 CFU/mL Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 29212 was achieved after 5 and 60 min of La2O3 and CeO2 photocatalytic processes, respectively.

Abstract:
The efficient regioselective bromination and iodination of the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) carprofen were achieved by using bromine and iodine monochloride in glacial acetic acid. The novel halogenated carprofen derivatives were functionalized at the carboxylic group by esterification. The regioselectivity of the halogenation reaction was evidenced by NMR spectroscopy and confirmed by X-ray analysis. The compounds were screened for their in vitro antibacterial activity against planktonic cells and also for their anti-biofilm effect, using Gram-positive bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 29213, Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 29212) and Gram-negative bacteria (Escherichia coli ATCC 25922 and Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27853). The cytotoxic activity of the novel compounds was tested against HeLa cells. The pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profiles of carprofen derivatives, as well as their toxicity, were established by in silico analyses.

Abstract:
Background: Enterococcus faecalis is a Gram-positive cocci present in the root canal due to the failure of endodontic treatment and pulp tissue necrosis. The ideal root canal medicine offers biocompatible properties, ease of cleaning, absence of tooth staining and non-disruption of the root canal filling process. Basil (Ocimum sanctum) is one of the herbs widely used in salads which produces anti-bacterial, anti-fungal and anti-viral effects. The antibacterial effect of basil results from the eugenol which represents a main component demonstrating antibacterial properties. Basil essential oil has an antibacterial effect on both gram positive and gram-negative bacteria. Purpose: This study aimed to determine whether the essential oils contained in basil leaves offer any antibacterial potential with regard to the growth of Enterecoccus faecalis ATCC 29212. Methods: The research was experimental in nature incorporating a simple random sampling technique. In this study, groups of active substance compounds contained in basil leaves were extracted by distillation in order to obtain the essential oil. Preparation of the test solution involved essence of basil leaf oil at concentrations of 5,000 ppm, 10,000 ppm and 20,000 ppm in methanol solvent. A phytochemical test of basil was subsequently conducted in order to identify the content of the compound. The bacteria in this study was tested utilizing a disc diffusion method (Kirby and Bauer test) by measuring the diameter of the clear zone (clear zone) which is indicative of the bacterial growth inhibition response of antibacterial compounds in the extract. Results: The results of the research into the phytochemical test showed that basil contains phenolic flavonoids, triterpenoids, saponins, tannins which produce a negative result on steroids. The results of this study showed that the basil essential oil inhibition zone present in the Enterecoccus faecalis growth had a diameter of 11.70 mm at a concentration of 20,000 ppm. This concentration therefore proved most effective in relation to Enterococcus faecalis than other concentrations. Conclusion: It can be concluded that essential oils of basil leaves demonstrate anti-bacterial inhibitory properties with regard to Enterococcus faecalis.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT The purpose of this experiment was to evaluate the pharmacokinetics and serum bactericidal titers (SBTs) of daptomycin alone and in combination with gentamicin against strains of Staphylococcus aureus and enterococci to determine if there might be any benefit to the addition of the aminoglycoside. A multiple-dose, randomized crossover study was performed in 11 healthy volunteers to evaluate the steady-state pharmacokinetic profile of 6 mg/kg of body weight daptomycin once daily with or without 1 mg/kg gentamicin every 8 h. SBTs were determined against clinical isolates of nosocomial (MRSA 494) and community-acquired (CA-MRSA 44) methicillin-resistant S. aureus, vancomycin-susceptible Enterococcus faecalis (VSEF 49452), vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium (VREF 80), and quality control strains of methicillin-susceptible S. aureus (ATCC 29213) and vancomycin-susceptible E. faecalis (ATCC 29212). Enhancement of bactericidal activity was evaluated by calculating and comparing the areas under the bactericidal curve (AUBC) for each dosing regimen against each isolate. The area under the concentration-time curve from 0 to 24 h and clearance for daptomycin alone were 645 ± 91 μg · h/ml and 9.47 ± 1.4 mg/h/kg, respectively, compared with 642 ± 69 μg · h/ml and 9.45 ± 1.0 mg/h/kg for daptomycin plus gentamicin. Daptomycin alone displayed sustained bactericidal activity against five of the six isolates over the entire 24-h dosing interval; bactericidal activity was maintained for 8 h against VREF 80. Mean AUBCs for daptomycin alone ranged from 935 to 1,263 and 36 to 238 against staphylococcal and enterococcal isolates, respectively, compared with 902 to 972 and 34 to 213 against staphylococci and enterococci when coadministered with gentamicin. The results of this study suggest that the addition of gentamicin does not alter the pharmacokinetic profile or enhance the bactericidal activity of daptomycin against staphylococcal or enterococcal isolates.

Abstract:
Los desinfectantes ejercen un rol importante al momento de mantener espacios libres de microorganismos que pueden resultar patógenos para la salud. Sin embargo, su efecto residual con el tiempo se ha visto reducido debido a diferentes causas inherentes a la bacteria o al compuesto químico como tal, lo cual puede provocar un aumento en la prevalencia de infecciones nosocomiales en los espacios hospitalarios. El objetivo es evaluar el efecto residual del etanol al 70º, glutaraldehído al 2%, clorhexidina 2% e hipoclorito de sodio 0,1% empleados como desinfectantes de uso hospitalario frente a Enterococcus faecalis, siendo este estudio de carácter descriptivo con enfoque cuantitativo y longitudinal. Se trabajó con Enterococcus faecalis ATCC-29212 mediante la técnica de Kirby Bauer en Agar Mueller Hinton. Se midieron los halos de inhibición obtenidos a los 20 minutos, una, tres, seis, 12 horas y 24 horas posteriores a la impregnación con el desinfectante para verificar su efecto residual. En los resultados se observó que Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 29212 no generó halos de inhibición frente a los dos primeros desinfectantes. Finalmente, el glutaraldehído al 2% y clorhexidina al 2% se mantuvieron con pequeños halos de inhibición durante los seis periodos, sin embargo, el efecto remanente no fue continuo, por ende, el efecto residual de estos biocidas resulta ineficaz en periodos prolongados de tiempo para limpieza y desinfección en ambientes hospitalarios.

RESUMO A cada dia, cepas bacterianas estão tornando-se resistentes a diversos antibióticos, o que faz necessária a busca de novas substâncias eficazes para o tratamento de doenças. Desta forma, este trabalho reporta o estudo preliminar toxicológico, antibacteriano e fitoquímico do extrato etanólico das folhas de Jatropha mollissima (pinhão-bravo, Euphorbiaceae), coletada no Município de Tauá, Ceará, Nordeste Brasileiro. Inicialmente, realizou-se o teste de toxicidade do extrato contra Artemia salina. Na sequencia, foi realizado o ensaio antibacteriano contra quatro cepas bacterianas Gram-negativas (Escherichia coli ATCC 25922, Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27853, Hafnia alvei ATCC 51873, Klebsiella pneumoniae ATCC 13883) e uma cepa Gram-positiva (Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 29212). Finalmente, fez-se a análise fitoquímica preliminar do extrato ativo para detecção das principais classes de metabólitos especiais. Como resultado, o extrato etanólico das folhas de J. mollissima se mostrou tóxico para Artemia salina, pois apresentou CL50 igual a 406,02 μg/mL. Quanto à ação antibacteriana, o extrato se mostrou ativo contra a bactéria Gram-positiva Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 29212, apresentando moderada atividade antibacteriana (halo de inibição igual a 7,03 mm). Evidenciou-se no extrato bioativo a presença de cumarinas, fenóis, taninos, flavonoides (flavonóis e flavanonas), alcaloides e esteroides, ambas as classes reportadas como antimicrobianos. Portanto, esse extrato tem potencial para ser usado na produção de fármacos contra infecções causadas por bactérias Gram-positivas. No entanto, as informações direcionam estudos futuros para o isolamento e identificação dos compostos bioativos, monitorados sob a ação antibacteriana mais expressiva.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT The purpose of this work was to analyze the effect of serum on the physicochemical surface properties and adhesion to glass and silicone of Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 29212 at 37°C. As is presented using thermodynamics analysis, serum minimizes the interaction of cells with water, which correlates well with the increase in hydrophobicity and in bacterial adhesion to glass and silicone.

Abstract:
In this study, the specific physicochemical, antioxidant, and antibacterial properties of 20 different rosehip marmalade samples, produced using traditional and commercial methods in the Gümüşhane province and its districts, were comprehensively analyzed. To detect the chemical composition of the rosehip marmalade samples, analyses were conducted for total dry matter, pH, ash, titratable acidity (malic acid %), soluble solids, water activity, and color (L*, a*, b*). Additionally, alongside the physicochemical analyses, the contents of hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) and sugars (fructose, glucose, sucrose, and total sugar) were also determined. To assess the antioxidant properties, analyses for total flavonoid content, total phenolic content, DPPH (% inhibition), and ABTS (% inhibition) were performed. Furthermore, the antibacterial activities of the rosehip marmalade samples against pathogenic bacterial strains such as Proteus vulgaris ATCC 29212, Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 29212, Klebsiella pneumoniae ATCC 13883, Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923, Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27853, Salmonella typhimurium ATCC 23566, and Escherichia coli O157:H7 35150 were investigated.

Abstract:
Surgical site infections (SSIs) represent the most common nosocomial infections, and surgical sutures are optimal surfaces for bacterial adhesion and biofilm formation. Staphylococcus spp., Enterococcus spp., and Escherichia coli are the most commonly isolated microorganisms. The aim of this research was to evaluate the antibiofilm activity of a medical device (MD) containing TIAB, which is a silver-nanotech patented product. The antibacterial effect was evaluated against Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 29213, Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 29212, and E. coli ATCC 25922 by assessing the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) by the Alamar Blue® (AB) assay. The antibiofilm effect was determined by evaluation of the minimum biofilm inhibitory concentration (MBIC) and colony-forming unit (CFU) count. Subsequently, the MD was applied on sutures exposed to the bacterial species. The antimicrobial and antibiofilm effects were evaluated by the agar diffusion test method, confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The MIC was determined for S. aureus and E. faecalis at 2 mg/mL, while the MBIC was 1.5 mg/mL for S. aureus and 1 mg/mL for E. faecalis. The formation of an inhibition zone around three different treated sutures confirmed the antimicrobial activity, while the SEM and CLSM analysis performed on the MD-treated sutures underlined the presence of a few adhesive cells, which were for the most part dead. The MD showed antimicrobial and antibiofilm activities versus S. aureus and E. faecalis, but a lower efficacy against E. coli. Surgical sutures coated with the MD have the potential to reduce SSIs as well as the risk of biofilm formation post-surgery.

Abstract:
Enterococcus faecalis, a leading multi-resistant nosocomial pathogen, is also the most frequently retrieved species from persistently infected dental root canals, suggesting that the oral cavity is a possible reservoir for resistant strains. However, antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) for oral enterococci remains scarce. Here, we examined the AST profiles of 37 E. faecalis strains, including thirty-four endodontic isolates, two vanA-type vancomycin-resistant isolates, and the reference strain ATCC-29212. Using Etest gradient strips and established EUCAST standards, we determined minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) for amoxicillin, vancomycin, clindamycin, tigecycline, linezolid, and daptomycin. Results revealed that most endodontic isolates were susceptible to amoxicillin and vancomycin, with varying levels of intrinsic resistance to clindamycin. Isolates exceeding the clindamycin MIC of the ATCC-29212 strain were further tested against last-resort antibiotics, with 7/27 exhibiting MICs matching the susceptibility breakpoint for tigecycline, and 1/27 reaching that of linezolid. Both vanA isolates confirmed vancomycin resistance and demonstrated resistance to tigecycline. In conclusion, while most endodontic isolates remained susceptible to first-line antibiotics, several displayed marked intrinsic clindamycin resistance, and MICs matched tigecycline’s breakpoint. The discovery of tigecycline resistance in vanA isolates highlights the propensity of clinical clone clusters to acquire multidrug resistance. Our results emphasize the importance of implementing AST strategies in dental practices for continued resistance surveillance.

Abstract:
Pristine high-density bulk disks of MgB2 with added hexagonal BN (10 wt.%) were prepared using spark plasma sintering. The BN-added samples are machinable by chipping them into desired geometries. Complex shapes of different sizes can also be obtained by the 3D printing of polylactic acid filaments embedded with MgB2 powder particles (10 wt.%). Our present work aims to assess antimicrobial activity quantified as viable cells (CFU/mL) vs. time of sintered and 3D-printed materials. In vitro antimicrobial tests were performed against the bacterial strains Escherichia coli ATCC 25922, Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27853, Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923, Enterococcus faecium DSM 13590, and Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 29212; and the yeast strain Candida parapsilosis ATCC 22019. The antimicrobial effects were found to depend on the tested samples and microbes, with E. faecium being the most resistant and E. coli the most susceptible.

Abstract:
Background: One of the important stages in endodontic treatment is root canal irrigation. The most widely used irrigant is sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl), but it is toxic to periapical tissue. Irrigant solutions from natural ingredients that have antibacterial potential are needed, one of which is Moringa oleifera seeds. Bacteria that are often found persistent after root canal treatment are Enterococcus faecalis. The purpose of this study was to determine the antibacterial effect of the ethanol extract of M. oleifera seeds at concentrations of 37.5%, 50%, 67.5% and 75% against E. faecalis.Method: Experimental laboratory research with post-test only control group design was carried out with 4 times replication. Antibacterial activity was tested against E. faecalis ATCC 29212 using paper disc diffusion method on Mueller Hinton Agar (MHA) media. The diameter of the inhibition zone formed was measured. Data were analysed by one-way ANOVA followed by LSD.Result: The 2.5% NaOCl group produced the largest inhibition zone of 16.38 ± 0.95 mm, followed by the 75% extract group of 13.51 ± 0.49 mm, and the smallest was the 37.5% extract group of 4.42 ± 0.27 mm. The negative control (DMSO) did not produce an inhibition zone. The increase in the concentration of the ethanolic extract of M. oleifera seeds resulted in significantly better inhibiting the growth of E. faecalis (p&lt;0.05).Conclusion: Ethanol extract of M. oleifera seeds at 37.5%, 50%, 62.5% and 75% had antibacterial effects against E. faecalis, with the 75% had the strongest antibacterial effect compared to other extract concentrations.

Abstract:
In vitro tests conducted with extracts rich in tannins have identified several biological activities of this class of substance. Thus, this paper intends to evaluate the antibacterial activity of tannin-rich fraction obtained from leaf extracts of Anacardium humile A.St.-Hil. Extracts of A. humile leaves in 70% acetone were semi-purified with ethyl acetate and butanol. We quantified the total tannins of the semi-purified fractions, of the crude extract and of aqueous residues and then performed tests of the antibacterial activity of the tannins against Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 6538, Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27853 and Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 29212. All positive extracts underwent tannin isolation using a Sephadex LH-20 column. The tannins isolated from the samples were quantified and tested for the minimal inhibitory concentrations (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentrations (MBC). The tannins from crude extracts, semi-purifications and residues showed inhibition of S. aureus growth with MIC=500 g mL-1. All tannin fractions showed MIC against all strains and MBC, except against E. faecalis. The tannin fractions from Anacardium humile have antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomononas aeruginosa and Enterococcus faecalis and, therefore, may be promising for future synthesis of new antibacterial agents.

Abstract:
In this study, we report the isolation and identification of an endophytic strain of Burkholderia cepacia (COPS strain) associated with Polygala paniculata roots. Polygala plants are rich sources of promising microbiomes, of which the literature reports several pharmacological effects, such as trypanocidal, antinociceptive, anesthetic, anxiolytics, and anticonvulsant activities. B. cepacia COPS belongs to a new sequence type (ST 1870) and harbors a genome estimated in 8.3 Mbp which exhibits the aminoglycosides and beta-lactams resistance genes aph(3′)-IIa and blaTEM-116, respectively. Analysis performed using MLST, average nucleotide identity, and digital DNA-DNA hybridization support its species-level identification and reveals its novel housekeeping genes alleles gyrB, lepA, and phaC. The root endophyte B. cepacia COPS drew our attention from a group of 14 bacterial isolates during the primary screening for being potentially active against Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 29213, Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 29212, Micrococcus luteus ATCC 9341, Escherichia coli ATCC 25922, and Candida albicans ATCC 10231 and exhibited the broad-spectrum activity against phytopathogenic fungi. In addition, COPS strain showed production of protease, lipase, and esterase in solid media, and its natural product extract showed potent inhibition against fungal plant pathogens, such as Moniliophthora perniciosa, whose antagonism index (89.32%) exceeded the positive control (74.17%), whereas Sclerotinia sclerotiorum and Ceratocystis paradoxa showed high percentages of inhibition (85.53% and 82.69%, respectively). COPS crude extract also significantly inhibited S. epidermidis ATCC 35984, E. faecium ATCC 700221 (MIC values of 32 μg/mL for both), E. faecalis ATCC 29212 (64 μg/mL), and S. aureus ATCC 25923 (128 μg/mL). We observed moderate antagonistic activity against A. baumannii ATCC 19606 and E. coli ATCC 25922 (both at 512 μg/mL), as well as potent cytotoxic effects on Leishmania infantum and Leishmania major promastigote forms with 78.25% and 57.30% inhibition. In conclusion, this study presents for the first time the isolation of an endophytic B. cepacia strain associated with P. paniculata and enough evidence that these plants may be considered a rich source of microbes for the fight against neglected diseases.

Abstract:
Two monoterpenoid lactones, loliolide (1) and epi-loliolide (2), were isolated from the crude dichloromethane extract of a microalga, Thalassiosira sp.). The structures of loliolide (1) and epi-loliolide (2) were elucidated by 1D and 2D NMR analysis, as well as a comparison of their 1H or/and 13C NMR data with those reported in the literature. In the case of loliolide (1), the absolute configurations of its stereogenic carbons were confirmed by X-ray analysis, whereas those of epi-loliolide (2) were determined by NOESY correlations. Loliolide (1) and epi-loliolide (2) were tested for their growth inhibitory activity against two Gram-positive (Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 29213, Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 29212) and two Gram-negative (Escherichia coli ATCC 25922, Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27853) bacteria, as well as one clinical isolate (E. coli SA/2, an extended-spectrum β-lactamase producer-ESBL) and two environmental isolates, S. aureus 74/24, a methicillin-resistant (MRSA), and E. faecalis B3/101, a vancomycin-resistant (VRE) isolates. The results showed that none of the tested compounds exhibited antibacterial activity at the highest concentrations tested (325 μM), and both revealed low antioxidant activity, with ORAC values of 2.786 ± 0.070 and 2.520 ± 0.319 µmol TE/100 mg for loliolide (1) and epi-loliolide (2), respectively.

Abstract:
This study examined the chemical composition and anti-coccal properties of essential oils and methanolic extracts of six different Humulus lupulus L. varieties from Poland: Iunga, Marynka, Sybilla, Magnum, Tradition and Chinook. The activity of an α-acid-enriched fraction of methanolic extracts was also studied. The chemical composition of essential oils and extracts was determined by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC/MS) and liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC/MS) techniques. The compounds characteristic to H. lupulus extracts include xanthohumol, α-acids, β-acids, and prenylated flavonoids. Essential oil compositions showed a high prevalence of monoterpene hydrocarbon, myrcene and sesquiterpene hydrocarbons, α-humulene and β-caryophyllene. The antimicrobial activity was investigated against eight human cocci pathogenic strains: Staphylococcus aureus MRSA (ATCC 43300), S. aureus MRSA (29213), S. aureus MSSA (ATCC 29213), S. epidermidis (ATCC 12228), Enterococcus faecalis (ATCC 29212), E. faecalis VRE (ATCC 51299), E. faecium (ATCC 19434) and Micrococcus luteus (ATCC 10240). The lowest minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) were obtained for extracts and essential oils from Iunga hop samples. Extracts were significantly more active than essential oils. The most susceptible strain to both essential oils and extracts was M. luteus, whilst the least susceptible was E. faecium. The antimicrobial activity correlated with a high concentration of xanthohumol of active extracts rather than with the content of α-acids. Xanthohumol showed considerable activity against MRSA with an MIC value of 3.9 µg/mL. The activity of the α-acid-enriched fraction was mediocre compared to the results of all extracts.

Abstract:
Binahong is a plant widely found in Indonesia and has been used for generations, but only by inheritance without much optimal research. Enterococcus faecalis is bacteria that cause many problems in the oral cavity such as periradicular lesion. The purpose of this study was to determine the zone of inhibition, Minimum Bactericidal Concentration (MBC), and Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) of Binahong leaf extract against bacteria Enterococcus faecalis ATCC® 29212TM concentrations of 100%, 90%, 80%, 70%, and 60%, chlorhexidine 0,2% as positive control and DMSO as a negative control. The experimental method used for the research with a post-test only control group design, pure bacteria prepared in the microbiology laboratory, and Binahong leaf extract used in the chemical laboratory of the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences (FMIPA) at the University of North Sumatera. Five treatments of Binahong leaf extract concentration were tested as samples four times. MBC and MIC measurements of Binahong leaf extract against Enterococcus faecalis ATCC® 29212TM were exchanged for each concentration. Mueller Hinton Agar (MHA) and Nutrient Broth incubated for 24 hours at 37°C. The ANOVA test data is analysed, followed by the Post Hoc test. The average inhibition zone of 100% concentration was 14.19 mm, 90% was 12.25 mm, 80% was (10.19 mm), 70% was 8.81 mm, 60% was 0.00 mm, chlorhexidine 0,2% was 20.88 mm, and DMSO was 0.00 m). The conclusion is that the best inhibition zone has a concentration of 100%, MBC was at 100%, and MIC was at 60%.
