Abstract:
Context: The purpose of this article is to evaluate the minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimal bactericidal concentration (MBC) of Herbal Irrigants. Aim: The aim of the study was to evaluate MIC and MBC of herbal extracts of Azadirachta indica, Curcuma longa, and Green Tea Against Enterococcus faecalis. Methodology: The MIC and MBC of extracts of A . indica (neem), C. longa (turmeric), and Green Tea were evaluated to establish them as standard root canal irrigants against E. faecalis using agar well diffusion method. Statistical Analysis Used: The collected data were statistically analyzed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) software. Results: The present study found that green tea exhibited the most substantial antimicrobial activity among the tested herbal extracts, which was comparable to chlorhexidine. Although A. indica and C. longa required higher concentrations for effectiveness, their antimicrobial properties were also apparent. Conclusions: Within the constraints of this study, it can be concluded that green tea could be considered a promising alternative to chlorhexidine in treating endodontic infections due to its substantial antimicrobial activity against E. faecalis at lower concentrations.

Abstract:
Background: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an important environmental, opportunistic, and nosocomial pathogen with a significant threat to public health. Combination therapy has many advantages due to the simultaneous action of two drugs on two separate cellular targets. In the present study, the effect of the combination of doxycycline and natural products against planktonic cells, biofilm, and virulence factors of P. aeruginosa was evaluated. Methods: To perform this work, minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimal bactericidal concentration (MBC) of doxycycline and natural products were determined by broth microdilution method. The microtiter plate assay method was used to determine the minimal biofilm inhibitory concentration (MBIC) and the minimum biofilm eradication concentration (MBEC). The effect of doxycycline and natural products against pyocyanin, swarming motility, and swimming motility was evaluated. The checkerboard method was used to evaluate the effect of the combination of doxycycline with natural products against planktonic and biofilm cells. Results: The MIC of doxycycline ranges between 2 µg/mL and 128 µg/mL with an average of 35.89 µg/mL. Sinapic acid shows the best inhibitory activity against planktonic cells with an average MIC of 27.79 µg/mL. At the sub-inhibitory concentrations, the pyocyanin production, swarming motility, and swimming motility decrease. Out of the six combinations tested, the combination formed by doxycycline and sinapic acid exhibited synergistic activity for the prevention of biofilm formation with a 7-fold reduction in MBIC of doxycycline. Conclusion: This study revealed that the doxycycline and sinapic acid combination could be considered as a promising candidate for the development of therapy against P. aeruginosa infections.

Abstract:
Antibiotic resistance is increasing worldwide making it necessary to search for alternative antimicrobials. Sodium bituminosulfonate is a long-known substance, whose antimicrobial inhibitory activity has recently been re-evaluated. However, to the best of our knowledge, the bactericidal mode of action of this substance has not been systematically characterized. The aim of this study was to investigate the in vitro bactericidal activity of sodium bituminosulfonate by determining the minimal bactericidal concentrations (MBC), as well as the rapidity of bactericidal effect by time-kill curves. Clinical isolates of methicillin-susceptible (MSSA, n = 20) and methicillin-resistant (mecA/mecC-MRSA, n = 20) Staphylococcus aureus were used to determine MBC by a broth microdilution method. Sodium bituminosulfonate (Ichthyol® light) was tested in double-dilution concentration steps ranging from 0.03 g/L to 256 g/L. For time-kill analysis, two reference and two clinical S. aureus strains were tested with different concentrations of sodium bituminosulfonate (1× minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC), 2× MIC, 4× MIC, 16× MIC and 256× MIC). For MSSA isolates, MBC50, MBC90 and the MBC range were 0.5 g/L, 1.0 g/L and 0.125–1.0 g/L; (MBC/MIC ratio)50, (MBC/MIC ratio)90 and the range of the MBC/MIC ratio were 4, 4 and 1–8, respectively. Among MRSA isolates, MBC50, MBC90 and the MBC range amounted to 0.5 g/L, 1.0 g/L and 0.06–1.0 g/L; (MBC/MIC ratio)50, (MBC/MIC ratio)90 and the range of the MBC/MIC ratio were 2, 4 and 1–8, respectively. Time-kill kinetics revealed a bactericidal effect after 30 min for sodium bituminosulfonate concentrations of 16× MIC and 256× MIC. The bactericidal activity against MSSA and MRSA was demonstrated for sodium bituminosulfonate. The killing was very rapid with the initial population reduced by 99.9% after only short incubation with concentrations of 16× MIC and higher.

Abstract:
Background: In the recent years, the proliferation of multi-drug-resistant and extensively drug-resistant strain to tuberculosis (TB) suggest that efforts are required to find alternative treatments. The designed study aimed to show the effects of essential oils (EO) from Drypetes gossweileri stem barks on Mycobacterium tuberculosis cell membrane release and DNA synthesis. Methods: The minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimal bactericidal concentration (MBC) were determined against two clinical isolates (IS53 and IS310) and the reference strain H37Rv ATCC 27294 using microdilution method. The effect of essential oil on cell membrane release of Mycobacterium tuberculosis was evaluated by measuring DNA, RNA and proteins release in extracellular medium using NanoDrop 1000 spectrophotometer to show the membrane integrity lose. The effect on DNA was performed by measuring genomic DNA and amplicons of MIRU 04 sequence produced when treated at MICs and MBCs concentrations to put in evidence the inhibitory effect of EO during DNA synthesis. Results: The results revealed that EO from Drypetes gossweileri stem barks exhibited strong activity with MIC ranging from 4.88 µg/mL against H37Rv and IS310 to 9.76 µg/mL against IS53. The significant release of DNA, RNA and proteins in extracellular medium were observed for treated cells at MIC and MBC concentrations compare to untreated cells. The most quantified biomolecules were proteins with concentration ranging from 370.9 104 ng/µL to 10630.0 104 ng/µL released at MIC concentration which increased from 1890.0 104 ng/µL to 12000.9 104 ng/µL at MBC. The inhibitory effect of DNA synthesis by EOs enhanced lower quantity of DNA for all treated cells at MIC and MBC compare to untreated cells. The results obtained in this study enabled the identification of two cellular targets (cell membrane and DNA) of EO from D. gossweileri stem barks on M. tuberculosis.

Abstract:
The results of the antimicrobial susceptibility testing of clinical isolates Streptococcus suis to amoxicillin and marbofloxacin obtained by the agar dilution method and broth microdilution method with the results obtained by the commercially available E-test were compared. Comparisons between the methods based on the determination of the minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) of the antimicrobials were assessed based on the degree and frequency of the categorical agreement (Agar dilution method as a reference system) and the percentage of the categorical agreement and error rate. A statistical evaluation was determined using the Bland-Atman method. The presented MIC values, determined for the isolates in the E-test, were slightly different from the MIC values determined by the dilution tests, mainly due to the different defined testing concentrations. For the E-test as the test system and agar-dilution method as the reference system, no error of any class was detected (very major, major and minor error) and a complete categorical agreement was obtained between the evaluated methods for amoxicillin. For amoxicillin, the regression and correlation analysis show linear relationships between the E-test and the two dilution methods with significant coefficients of determination (0.62 and 0.75). The slopes of the equality and regression lines were not significantly different. However, the E-test tends to slightly overestimate the MIC values when compared to the microdilution. The reverse is true when compared with the agar dilution. There was good agreement between the E-test and the dilution methods with a low bias (0.001 3 and −0.005 0), all the experimental data were within the computed limits of agreement. For marbofloxacin, the same trends were observed with lower coefficients of determination (0.42 and 0.73) and a less favourable agreement. The E-test constantly underestimated the MIC values when compared to the two dilution methods. No significant difference between the microdilution and agar dilution was obtained.

Abstract:
In the current paper, we present the results of Kazakh propolis investigations. Due to limited data about propolis from this country, research was focused mainly on phytochemical analysis and evaluation of propolis antimicrobial activity. uHPLC-DAD (ultra-high-pressure-liquid chromatography coupled with diode array detection, UV/VIS) and uHPLC-MS/MS (ultra-high-pressure-liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry) were used to phytochemical characteristics while antimicrobial activity was evaluated in the serial dilution method (MIC, minimal inhibitory concentration, and MBC/MFC, minimal bactericidal/fungicidal concentration measurements). In the study, Kazakh propolis exhibited a strong presence of markers characteristic of poplar-type propolis—flavonoid aglycones (pinocembrin, galangin, pinobanksin and pinobanskin-3-O-acetate) and hydroxycinnamic acid monoesters (mainly caffeic acid phenethyl ester and different isomers of caffeic acid prenyl ester). The second plant precursor of Kazakh propolis was aspen–poplar with 2-acetyl-1,3-di-p-coumaroyl glycerol as the main marker. Regarding antimicrobial activity, Kazakh propolis revealed stronger activity against reference Gram-positive strains (MIC from 31.3 to above 4000 mg/L) and yeasts (MIC from 62.5 to 1000 mg/L) than against reference Gram-negative strains (MIC ≥ 4000 mg/L). Moreover, Kazakh propolis showed good anti-Helicobacter pylori activity (MIC and MBC were from 31.3 to 62.5 mg/L). All propolis samples were also tested for H. pylori urease inhibitory activity (IC50, half-maximal inhibitory concentration, ranged from 440.73 to 11,177.24 µg/mL). In summary Kazakh propolis are potent antimicrobial agents and may be considered as a medicament in the future.

Abstract:
Recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS) is one of the most common oral diseases in the community, with a prevalence of 5-66%, with one of the predisposing factors being Streptococcus sanguinis. Treatment for RAS has been symptomatic and supportive, including antiseptic mouthwash such as chlorhexidine gluconate 0.2% or topical corticosteroids (triamcinolone acetonide 0.1% in Orabase). However, these drugs have some side effects. Treating herbal ingredients such as Beluntas leaves low prices and minimal side effects. The active compounds in Beluntas leaves are phenols, tannins, flavonoids, saponins, triterpenoids, essential oils, terpenoids, and many compounds known to have antibacterial activity. Methods: This study aimed to determine the minimum inhibitory level (MIC), and minimum killing rate (MBC) of 96% ethanol extract of Beluntas leaves on the growth of Streptococcus sanguinis. MIC was measured by broth microdilution technique with DMSO solvent 10% and eight concentrations of beluntas extract. Chlorhexidine gluconate 0.2% was used as a positive control for the comparison compound. Furthermore, the MBC test was carried out using the total plate count method for treatments that gave the MIC value. One Way Anova analysis with Post Hoc Tukey was used to determine the significant difference between treatments. Results: The ethanol extract of Beluntas leaves (Pluchea indica L) has a Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) and Minimum Bactericidal Concentration (MBC) for the growth of Streptococcus sanguinis with a minimum inhibitory concentration of 3.95 g/mL and a minimum concentration of 7.8 g/mL. Conclusion: The ethanol extract of Beluntas leaves (Pluchea indica L) has the potential as an antibacterial against Streptococcus sanguinis.

Abstract:
Abstract Throughout history, plants have been indispensable in the development of society due to their high content of bioactive substances, which are used in different industries such as food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetics. Curcuma longa is a perennial species that belongs to the Zingiberaceae family, which is used for therapeutic purposes due to its anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties, among others. This research evaluates the antibacterial activity of ethanolic and acetonic extracts of Curcuma longa against Propionibacterium acnes, recently renamed Cutibacterium acnes, that has long been implicated in the pathogenesis of acne. Secondary metabolites were identified by phytochemical screening tests. Curcuminoids determination was carried out by using TLC (thin-layer chromatography) and the phenolic compounds were quantified by the Folin-Ciocalteu assay. The antibacterial activity was evaluated using the Kirby-Bauer method with different treatments (50,75 and 100%) and broth microdilution method was used to determine the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC). The extracts showed the presence of phenolic compounds, flavonoids, terpenoids, and tannins, confirming the presence of curcuminoids. In the quantification of phenolic compounds, no significant differences in their composition were observed. The treatment 100% of acetonic extract of Curcuma longa exhibited an inhibition percentage of 48.79% compared to the ethanolic ex tract 75% treatment, which reached 31.67%. Additionally, the acetonic extract showed a minimum inhibitory concentration of 15.62 µg/mL, while for the ethanolic extract, it was 31.25 µg/mL. These findings highlight the potential antibacterial activity of the acetonic extract against Cutibacterium acnes, which could make it a promising natural option for acne control.

Abstract:
AbstractThe emergence of multidrug resistance in bacteria due to overuse of antibiotics is becoming an important health concern in recent years, which requires development of novel alternatives to fight against these bacteria. Essential oils (EOs) are secondary metabolites that have different components and chemical compositions which may provide promising solution to the problem of rising number of drug resistant bacteria, as they can effectively kill bacteria. Here, in this study our aim is to determine the efficacy of lemongrass, rosemary, clary sage, geranium and tea tree essential oil against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, using agar well diffusion method. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of these EOs were also determined. The chemical composition of these essential oils were known by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis. It was revealed in this study that most of the essential oils show antimicrobial property against the test bacterium. The MIC of lemongrass is 0.25% (v/v), rosemary is 1% (v/v), clary sage is 2% (v/v), geranium is 0.5% (v/v) and for tea tree oil is 1% (v/v). We can infer from this data that lemongrass, rosemary, clary sage, geranium and tree oil can be utilized to treat infections caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa, which is a gram-negative bacterium.

Abstract:
In the extensive domain of “biotechnology and drug development for targeting human diseases”, essential oils have long been revered for their therapeutic potential. Among these, farnesol and farnesene stand out due to their pharmacological attributes. As the challenge of antibiotic resistance intensifies, the scientific community is increasingly exploring the potential of these traditional remedies. Using the KirbyBauer agar diffusion method, a qualitative assessment was conducted on two grampositive and two gram-negative bacterial strains. The broth microdilution technique further determined the Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC), Minimum Bactericidal Concentration (MBC), and the sensitizing impacts of these compounds. Both farnesol and farnesene exhibited antibacterial efficacy against all evaluated strains. Their synergistic potential was highlighted when combined with clavulanic acid, cefuroxime, and cefepime. Among these combinations, farnesene paired with cefepime showed pronounced efficacy against Escherichia coli 82 MR, with an MIC of 0.47 μg/mL. In contrast, in the investigation of Staphylococcus aureus 23MR, it was observed that this particular strain exhibited an increased sensitivity when exposed to combinations containing farnesol. Notably, the Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) was determined to be 0.03 µg/mL in the presence of both antibiotic agents. To gain deeper molecular insights, docking experiments were performed with the βlactamases of E. coli and S. aureus, focusing on the most effective combinations. All tested compounds—cefuroxime, cefepime, farnesene, and farnesol—acted as noncompetitive inhibitors, suggesting their potential mechanisms of action.

Abstract:
Objective: Fruit seeds, often discarded as waste by the food industry, are underutilized source of bioactive compounds. While the antimicrobial activity of Myrtaceae species leaves is well known, few studies have investigated its seeds for this purpose. This study evaluated the antimicrobial potential of hydroalcoholic extracts from seeds of cambuci (Campomanesia phaea), grumixama (Eugenia brasiliensis), jabuticaba (Plinia cauliflora), and pitanga (Eugenia uniflora). The Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) and Minimum Bactericidal Concentration (MBC) were determined to Bacillus cereus, Candida albicans, Escherichia coli, Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella Typhimurium, Staphylococcus aureus, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Method: The ethanolic extracts were concentrated, the antimicrobial potential was assessed using the agar diffusion method, the MICs was determined by microdilution and MBC by drop plate technique. Results: All extracts showed inhibitory potencial. The lowest MICs were determined to grumixama extract (E. coli; 0.04 g/mL), followed by jabuticaba and pitanga (E. coli, L.monocytogenes, S. Typhimurium, and S. aureus; 0.06 g/mL), and cambuci (L. monocytogenes and S. Typhimurium; 0.07 g/mL). Although all extracts showed bactericidal activity at concentrations ranging from 0.06 to 0.95 g/mL, the lowest MBC was observed on pitanga’s extract to E. coli, S. Typhimurium, and S. aureus. Conclusion: The results highlight the potential of seeds as an alternative source of antimicrobial compounds, contributing to the valorization of industrial by-products and reducing the discard of materials with potential technological applications.

Abstract:
This study aimed at determining, for the first time, anticariogenic and anti-acetylcholinesterase activities of essential oil from Eugenia pyriformis aerial parts (EP-EO) and its major constituent limonene against cariogenic bacteria and the enzyme acetylcholinesterase (AChE). EP-EO and limonene were subject to the broth microdilution method on 96-well microplates and determination of minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum inhibitory concentration of biofilm (MICB50) (µg/mL). AChE inhibition was qualitatively evaluated by Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC). EP-EO and limonene not only showed strong anticariogenic activity, since their MIC and MICB50 values ranged between 20 and 400 µg/mL, but also inhibited cholinesterase when subject to TLC. Both GC-MS and GC-FID analyses identified and quantified the following major constituents: limonene (14.8%), nerolidol (11.0%) and α-cadinol (10.3%). This study showed that EP-EO and limonene were active in in vitro assays and, thus, may be important targets of further in vivo studies.

Abstract:
This chapter tries to describe the most important plant extracts and their bioactive compounds which determine the antibiotic activity. Pharmacological assays performed for each plant extract are presented, including the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) as the most used experimental method to determine antimicrobial activity. Also, the effective associations between classic antibiotics and plant extracts with antibacterial are presented. The mechanisms of action are deeply explained to the extent that they are known and discovered by in vitro and in vivo studies. Plant-derived compounds have different mechanism of action as antibiotics. They can have other target sites than traditional antimicrobials and subsequently having different mechanisms of action against microbes. Ultimately, this chapter tries to be an invitation to use plant extract as an alternative to chemical, synthetic antibiotics, or used complementary, synergistic for better therapeutically results.

Abstract:
The use of plants to treat and prevent diseases is an ancestral practice of humanity. In recent years, the resistance of microorganisms to antibiotics has generated a growing interest in the research of therapeutic alternatives, including the chemical compounds present in essential oils. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the antibacterial and antifungal effect of Ocotea catharinesis essential oil (EOOc) and to identify its main compounds. The extraction of the essential oil was done by hydrodistillation for 4.5 hours, using 50g of dried leaves. To identify the chemical components, gas chromatography with mass spectrometry was used. For the microbiological tests, the strains tested included Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Candida albicans and Candida tropicalis. The Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) was determined by the microdilution method. The essential oil was tested as a modulator of antibiotic resistance, using gentamicin, penicillin and norfloxacin as references for antibacterials and fluconazole for fungi, with or without the presence of the oil. Analysis of the oil revealed two main compounds: alpha pinene (13.9%) and limonene (13.4%). Alpha pinene, a terpenoid, can help reduce oxidative stress by acting as an antioxidant. The cEOOc showed resistance against E. coli and P. aeruginosa bacteria, with values equal to or greater than 1024 μg/mL, showing that gram-negative bacteria are more resistant. With the antibiotic penicillin, the EOOc showed similar results, also because of receptor proteins. Tests with Norfloxacin and Gentamicin showed values of 512 μg/mL, with no synergistic potential with antibiotics. It was observed that against the strains of Candida tropicalis, the EOOc presented a modulating effect with a lower concentration than the drug tested. The results indicate that the essential oil of Ocotea catharinesis Mez may have an antifungal effect against Candida tropicalis strains.

Abstract:
Abstract Traditionally, phosphonate based scale inhibitors have dominated the global squeeze treatment market and for very good reasons: they combine high performance with ease of measurement. However, increasingly stringent environmental legislation has resulted in the development of new, enhanced polymeric scale inhibitors that contain low levels of phosphorus, such as phosphonate end-capped polymers. These polymers are highly effective with particularly low MIC (minimum inhibition concentration) values, but this creates analytical problems as they can’t currently be easily measured at these low levels. Therefore, to realise the full performance and environmental benefits of such polymers it is necessary to be able to readily and easily measure them at low concentrations in a variety of brine chemistries. A novel separation and pre-concentration procedure has been developed that can be combined with industry standard analytical methods (e.g. Hyamine) to detect such scale inhibitors. It is simple to use, flexible, requires no specialist knowledge or equipment and can measure sub-ppm levels of inhibitor reliably and accurately in even the most concentrated brines.

Abstract:
Abstract Laboratory scale inhibitor performance tests have been widely accepted to screen products and determine the minimum effective concentrations (MEC) of selected products for field treatment. The dynamic tube-blocking test is the most common lab testing method used to obtain an inhibitor MEC number because the testing temperature, oxygen level, pH, and pressure can be well controlled to duplicate the field scaling conditions. A new benchtop testing method, the Kinetic Turbidity Test (KTT), has drawn increased attention for scale inhibitor evaluation and MEC determination under some scaling circumstances due to its ability to monitor the formation and growth of mineral scales continuously throughout the test duration. In west Texas, a well being evaluated had failed three times within 1.5 years because of the formation of scale on the ESP pump, even though it had an aggressive squeeze treatment with the inhibitor residuals of 20 ppm and above. Both lab dynamic tube-blocking tests and KTT results show that 5 ppm of the selected scale inhibitor would be sufficient to prevent the formation of scales for a general produced water sample. However, under the worst scaling scenario according to historical produced water data, KTT results indicate that more than 30 ppm of scale inhibitor is required to achieve an effective scale treatment, whereas the dynamic tube-blocking test MEC is still well below 20 ppm. This paper is intended to give some insight on the field treatment failure analysis by comparing the difference between the MEC obtained from different testing methods at various scaling conditions. The other possible reasons that may cause treatment failure, such as uneven scale inhibitor distribution at different producing zones and inhibitor residual samples contamination, are also included in this study.

Abstract This article presents the results obtained in the evaluation of the joint action of the chemical inhibition (inhibitor) and the magnetic field, aiming to evaluate the possibility of reducing the minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC), seeking an increase in production in oil extraction wells, increasing the reliability of the guarantee of flow in deep water wells. The magnetic field has the potential to retard the scaling of inorganic salts in oil production/water treatment systems. An evaluation of the combination of magnetic field and inhibitor to retard carbonate scaling was carried out, based on the tube blocking test method (TBT). The evaluation was carried out in two brine solutions, with reduced concentrations from a brine solution representative of the Brazilian pre-salt. A reactor with an internal diameter of 0.045 cm and a total flow rate of 20 cm3/min was used. (Re ≈ 900), reactor inlet pressure of 10 kgf/cm2 and outlet pressure of 1 kgf/cm2. The temperature was 60 °C and the inhibitor used was hydroxymethyl amino-di(methylene phosphonic acid) type in different concentrations. The magnetic field used was 1.0 Tesla. The results indicate that the association of inhibitor and magnetic field under certain conditions can lead to significant delays in calcium carbonate fouling, proving to be an interesting strategy for mitigating calcium carbonate fouling.

Abstract:
Staphylococcus aureus is a gram-positive bacterium while Escherichia coli is a gram-negative bacterium that often causes infections and be used as a bacteriological model for many antibacterial screenings. Aloe vera is known to have active compounds that act as antibacterial, however, the effect of Aloe vera ethanol extract on the inhibition of growth and death of Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli bacteria is not clear yet. Aloe vera was extracted using maceration in ethanol. Phytochemical tests were carried out to de-termine the active compounds in the extract [3]. To measure antibacterial efficacy, a disc diffusion method using concentrations of 3,125%, 6,25%, 12,5%, 25%, 50%, 100%, control (+) and control (-) was done using S. aureus and E. coli. Data analysis using One Way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) test and then continued Tukey's Post Hock test with a significance of p&lt; 0.05 [4] Minimum Inhibi-tion Concentration (MIC) and Minimum Bactericidal Concentration (MBC) was then determined with the same concentrations. The study's Aloe vera ethanol extract contained flavonoids and alkaloids. The zone of inhibitions diameter on both bacteria at the concentration of 3.125%, 6.25%, 12.5%, 25% and the negative con-trol were 0 mm. At 50% concentration, the diameter was 7.67±0.58 mm, while at 100% concentra-tion was 20.67±1.53 mm. The diameter of tetracycline and amoxicillin were 34 mm and 36 mm, respectively. MIC and MBC of Aloe vera ethanol extract against Staphylococcus aureus at a concen-tration of 12.5% while against Escherichia coli at a concentration of 25%. Aloe vera ethanol extract has antibacterial effects and is able to inhibit and kill Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli bacteria with higher inhibitory power against Staphylococcus aureus than against Escherichia coli.

The aim of this study is to investigate the in vitro antimicrobial properties of the acetone extracts of the mushrooms Macrolepiota procera and Chlorophyllum rhacodes. The microdilution method was used to determine the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and assess the antimicrobial effects against three bacterial and ten fungal species. Overall, the tested mushroom extracts had relatively strong antimicrobial activity against the tested microorganisms. The minimum inhibitory concentration for both extracts related to the tested bacteria and fungi was 0.625 – 20 mg/mL. Extract of C. rhacodes exhibited more powerful antimicrobial properties, with ranged MIC values from 0.625 mg/mL to 10 mg/mL. The Acetone extract of C. rhacodes has shown the most antibacterial activity against S. aureus, while the extract of M. procera has not shown activity against S. aureus as against G. candidum. In comparison to the standard antibiotics as positive controls, the antimicrobial activity of studied extracts was less expressed. The results suggest that mushroom species may be used for pharmaceutical purposes in treating various diseases.

Colistin has its problem with nephrotoxicity despite its capability for combatting multi-drug resistant gram-negative bacteria. Sodium deoxycholate sulfate (SDCS) has been shown to increase the safety profile of nephrotoxic drugs. This study aimed to explore the antimicrobial activity of colistin-SDCS versus free colistin against P. aeruginosa and investigate their cytotoxicity on kidney cells. The colistin micelles were formulated with SDCS followed by lyophilization and their properties were analyzed. Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) of colistin were determined using the broth microdilution method. The static time-kill kinetics were also employed to monitor the bactericidal activity of formulation over time. The cytotoxicity of formulations was analyzed using MTT colorimetric assay against kidney cells. The colistin-SDCS dry-powder was stable after reconstitution and resulted in 240 to 297 nm in particle size with the zeta potential of -22.8 to -23.4 mV. The colistin-SDCS formulations showed similar antibacterial activity against P. aeruginosa to pure colistin. MIC and MBC were 7.81 and 15.63 µg/mL, respectively. The static-time kill results displayed slightly better bactericidal activity at 24 h. The viability of kidney cells exposure to colistin-SDCS micelle was higher than that of pure colistin.

In this study, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) have been synthesized using the aqueous extract of the aerial parts of B. purpurocaerulea, collected in Serbia. B. purpurocaerulea silver nanoparticles (Bp– AgNPs) synthesis was confirmed using UV-Vis spectroscopy and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). The biological potential of synthesized Bp-AgNPs was evaluated in vitro using ABTS assay for determining free radical scavenging potential and microdilution method for analysis of antimicrobial properties. Bp-AgNPs showed high antioxidant activity similar to Bp-extract, comparable to BHT. The synthesized nanoparticles exerted remarkable antibacterial effects, with minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) values below 20 µg/mL. In the case of some bacterial strains, the results of Bp– AgNPs were comparable or similar to standard antibiotic erythromycin. The antifungal activity of Bp– AgNPs was moderate for most of the used strains. Nevertheless, several fungi were resistant to the NPs action, while two tested Penicillium species were extremely sensitive on Bp-AgNPs with MIC lower than 40 µg/mL. The antimicrobial properties of Bp-AgNPs can be useful for the development of new NPs-containing products.

Abstract:
The present study investigated the efficacy of Plantago majorL. (Plantaginaceae) extract against Streptococcus mutans, a bacterium associated with the development of biofilms and dental caries. The main objective was to determine the efficacy of this extract by means of the broth microdilution method, seeking to establish the Minimum Inhibitory Concentrations (MIC) and Minimum Bactericidal Concentrations (MBC) of the extract. For this, bacterial suspensions were prepared and incubated with different concentrations of the extract in BHI medium. After 48 hours at 36°C, the turbidity of the samples was evaluated, followed by subculture to check for bacterial growth. The extract of Plantago majorand 1% chlorhexidine were tested, and the MIC of the extract against S. mutansat a concentration of 1.5 x 107 CFU/mL was determined at 25 mg/mL. The results indicate that the extract has significant antimicrobial activity against S. mutans, suggesting that it is a promising natural alternative for the prevention of dental caries. The comparison with chlorhexidine suggests that the extract may be a viable option, especially considering the growing demand for natural antimicrobial agents. In conclusion, this study confirms the efficacy of Plantago major extract against Streptococcus mutans, highlighting its potential as a natural antimicrobial agent. Further research is needed to further explore the mechanisms of action and efficacy of this extract in in vivo models, aiming at its development as a treatment for caries prevention

Abstract:
Campylobacter spp. are the most common bacterial cause of foodborne illness in the UK, with chicken considered to be the most important vehicle of transmission for this organism. It is estimated there are 500,000 cases of campylobacteriosis in the UK annually, with Campylobacter jejuni (C. jejuni) and Campylobacter coli (C. coli) accounting for approximately 91% and 8 % of infections, respectively. Although severe infection in humans is uncommon, treatment is seldom needed for human infection but usually involves the administration of a macrolide (e.g., azithromycin) or a fluoroquinolone (e.g., ciprofloxacin). An increased rate of resistance in Campylobacter in chicken to such antimicrobials could limit effective treatment options for human infections and it is therefore important to monitor changes in rates of resistance over time. In this report we analysed trends in antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in C. jejuni and C. coli isolated from chicken in the UK. The chicken samples were from chicken reared for meat (ie. broiler chicken as opposed to layer chicken (ie. egg-laying chicken)) and included chicken sampled at slaughterhouses as well as from retail stores in the UK. Datasets included AMR results from retail surveys of Campylobacter spp. on chicken sampled in the UK from various projects in the time period from 2001 to 2020. In the retail surveys, samples were obtained from stores including major and minor retail stores throughout the UK (in proportion to the population size of each nation) and Campylobacter spp. testing was performed using standard methods with the majority of isolates obtained from direct culture on standard media (mCCDA). Data from national scale surveys of broiler chicken, sampling caecal contents and carcase neckskins at slaughterhouses, undertaken by APHA in 2007/2008, and between 2012 and 2018 were also included in the study. In the APHA-led surveys, Campylobacter were isolated using standard culture methods (culture onto mCCDA) and antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed by a standard microbroth dilution method to determine the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of isolates. Care was taken when comparing data from different studies as there had been changes to the threshold used to determine if an isolate was susceptible or resistant to an antimicrobial in a small number of scenarios. Harmonised thresholds (using epidemiological cut-off (ECOFF) values) were employed to assess AMR with appropriate adjustments made where required to allow meaningful comparisons of resistance prevalence over time. Data from additional isolates where resistance to antimicrobials were predicted from genome sequence data were also considered.
