The MIC of nine different disinfectants and antiseptics were determined for the Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. Strains originated from clinical specimens, drugs and environment. A sensitivity was determined against chlorhexidinum digluconate (Gram-negative: 0,625-80 mg/L, Gram-positive: 0,3-10 mg/L), benzalconium chloride (Gram-negative: 2,5-1280 mg/L, Gram-positive: 1,25-20 mg/L), salicilic acid (Gram-negative and Gram-positive: 400-1600 mg/L), benzoic acid (Gram-negative: 800-1600 mg/L, Gram-positive: 400-1 600 mg/L), boric acid (Gram-negative: 800-12 800 mg/L, Gram-positive: 1 600-6400 mg/L), chloramine B (Gram-negative: 1600-6400 mg/L, Gram-positive:800- 6400 mg/L), jodine (Gram-negative: 200-1600 mg/L, Gram-positive: 200-1600 mg/L), etacridine lactate (Gram-negative: 40 do > 20480 mg/L, Gram-positive: 40-1280 mg/L) and resorcine (Gram-negative: 1600-6400 mg/L, Gram-positive: 800-6400 mg/L). Diversified values of MIC for different strains were obtained, especially in the case of benzalconium chloride, etacridine lactate, chlorhexidinum digluconate, boric acid and iodine. Strains isolated from environment were usually more susceptible to examined compounds than clinical strains. The biggest diversification of sensitivity was observed among strains originated from drugs where besides sensitive appeared strains characterizing by very high MIC values of some substances, eg. boric acid.  相似文献

Mitoxantrone, a new anthraquinone, showed inhibitory an effect on protein kinase C (PKC) activity. Its IC50 value was 4.4 micrograms/ml (8.5 microM), which is much lower than those of the well-known anthracyclines daunorubicin and doxorubicin, the IC50 values of which are more than 100 micrograms/ml (> 170 microM). Kinetic studies demonstrated that mitoxantrone inhibited PKC in a competitive manner with respect to histone H1, and its Ki value was 6.3 microM (Ki values of daunorubicin and doxorubicin were 0.89 and 0.15 mM, respectively), and in a non-competitive manner with respect to phosphatidylserine and ATP. Inhibition of phosphorylation by mitoxantrone was observed with various substrates including S6 peptide, myelin basic protein and its peptide substrate derived from the amino-terminal region. Their IC50 values were 0.49 microgram/ml (0.95 microM), 1.8 micrograms/ml (3.5 microM), and 0.82 microgram/ml (1.6 microM), respectively. Mitoxantrone did not markedly inhibit the activity of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase, casein kinase I or casein kinase II, at concentrations of less than 10 micrograms/ml. On the other hand, brief exposure (5 min) of HL60 cells to mitoxantrone caused the inhibition of cell growth with an IC50 value of 52 ng/ml (0.1 microM). In HL60 cells, most of the PKC activity (about 90%) was detected in the cytosolic fraction. When HL60 cells exposed to 10 micrograms/ml mitoxantrone for 5 min were observed with fluorescence microscopy, the fluorescence elicited from mitoxantrone was detected in the extranuclear area. These results indicated that mitoxantrone is a potent inhibitor of PKC, and this inhibition may be one of the mechanisms of antitumor activity of mitoxantrone.  相似文献

Antimicrobial activity of seven commercial smoke preparations (four liquid and three solid) was studied. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) was determined against a selection of food spoilage and pathogenic micro-organisms. The main smoke components were identified and quantified by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. The most effective condensate was S2. All strains except Salmonella enteritidis were inhibited by S2 with an MIC <0·5–1·5%. Smoke extract L2 inhibited growth of Vibrio vulnificus, Yersinia enterocolitica, Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus, Listeria monocytogenes, L. inocua, Brochothrix thermosphacta and Lactococcus lactis ssp. lactis with an MIC of <0·2–0·8%. The condensate L3 inhibited effectively V. vulnificus, B. subtilis, L. innocua and Staph. aureus. L1, L4, S1 and S3 had no inhibitory effects at levels tested against most micro-organisms. Vibrio vulnificus was the most susceptible micro-organism to test compounds. The antimicrobial activity of smoke preparations was related to the concentration of phenols.  相似文献

The effect of isoflavones on the growth of the human breast carcinoma cell lines, MDA-468 (estrogen receptor negative), and MCF-7 and MCF-7-D-40 (estrogen receptor positive), has been examined. Genistein is a potent inhibitor of the growth of each cell line (IC50 values from 6.5 to 12.0 micrograms/ml), whereas biochanin A and daidzein are weaker growth inhibitors (IC50 values from 20 to 34 micrograms/ml). The isoflavone beta-glucosides, genistin and daidzin, have little effect on growth (IC50 values greater than 100 micrograms/ml). The presence of the estrogen receptor is not required for the isoflavones to inhibit tumor cell growth (MDA-468 vs MCF-7 cells). In addition, the effects of genistein and biochanin A are not attenuated by overexpression of the multi-drug resistance gene product (MCF-7-D40 vs MCF-7 cells).  相似文献

The in vitro antibacterial activity of omeprazole against eight strains of Helicobacter pylori was evaluated. Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values were 32 micrograms/ml and 64 micrograms/ml (MIC50 and MIC90 respectively). We performed a randomized single blind study comparing the efficacy of omeprazole alone (for 4 weeks) or combined with roxithromycin (for 2 weeks) in the treatment of duodenal ulcer and chronic active gastritis associated with H. pylori infection, H. pylori was eradicated in 75% of patients treated with omeprazole alone whereas the patients treated with the combination of these drugs were completely free from H. pylori at the end of the therapy.  相似文献

This study is the first phytochemical investigation of Selaginella sellowii and demonstrates the antileishmanial activity of the hydroethanolic extract from this plant (SSHE), as well as of the biflavonoids amentoflavone and robustaflavone, isolated from this species. The effects of these substances were evaluated on intracellular amastigotes of Leishmania (Leishmania) amazonensis, an aetiological agent of American cutaneous leishmaniasis. SSHE was highly active against intracellular amastigotes [the half maximum inhibitory concentration (IC50) = 20.2 µg/mL]. Fractionation of the extract led to the isolation of the two bioflavonoids with the highest activity: amentoflavone, which was about 200 times more active (IC50 = 0.1 μg/mL) and less cytotoxic than SSHE (IC50 = 2.2 and 3 μg/mL, respectively on NIH/3T3 and J774.A1 cells), with a high selectivity index (SI) (22 and 30), robustaflavone, which was also active against L. amazonensis (IC50 = 2.8 µg/mL), but more cytotoxic, with IC50 = 25.5 µg/mL (SI = 9.1) on NIH/3T3 cells and IC50 = 3.1 µg/mL (SI = 1.1) on J774.A1 cells. The production of nitric oxide (NO) was lower in cells treated with amentoflavone (suggesting that NO does not contribute to the leishmanicidal mechanism in this case), while NO release was higher after treatment with robustaflavone. S. sellowii may be a potential source of biflavonoids that could provide promising compounds for the treatment of cutaneous leishmaniasis.  相似文献

细胞壁的屏障作用是微生物降低对消毒剂敏感性的普遍机制。消毒剂对细胞膜的作用导致膜的通透性增加,胞内物质泄漏,呼吸链被破坏等。一些消毒剂能直接改变、破坏蛋白质和核酸的结构和功能,但核酸和蛋白质的合成过程可能比结构本身对消毒剂更加敏感。流式细胞仪、单细胞凝胶电泳等新技术的应用将使人们能够更深刻地了解消毒剂的作用机理。  相似文献

Antimicrobial compounds were screened in vitro in Trypticase soy broth for antimicrobial activity against a virulent strain of Salmonella enteritidis. Of the several compounds tested, polymyxin B showed the strongest inhibition in vitro, preventing growth at a concentration of less than or equal to 10 micrograms/ml. Polymyxin B administered in the drinking water was effective in vivo for preventing infections in 1-day-old chickens but did not remove established infections in 1-week-old chickens. It was found that trimethoprim, which was not active in vitro, prevented colonization and removed existing infections in 1-day-old chickens when it was administered together with polymyxin B sulfate. Enrichment cultures in which selenite-cystine and tetrathionate broth media were used showed that chickens given a combination of 100 micrograms of polymyxin B sulfate per ml and 250 micrograms of trimethoprim per ml 24 h prior to oral inoculation with 10(8) to 10(9) CFU were negative for S. enteritidis after 7 days. Established infections (10(5) to 10(6) CFU/g of feces) in 1-week-old chickens were eliminated by treatment with the polymyxin-trimethoprim system. This antimicrobial agent treatment may be useful for preventing colonization in poultry and for eliminating S. enteritidis from infected flocks.  相似文献

A synergistic antiplatelet effect between prostaglandins (PG), cAMP-stimulators and nitric oxide (NO), a cGMP-stimulator, has already been described. Data on a synergism between NO and the metabolites of PGE1, however, are lacking so far. We therefore tested the antiplatelet activity of the metabolites of PGE1 alone and their synergism with NO on human platelets of 8 healthy volunteers in vitro. 13,14-DH-PGE1 (ID 50 = 10.8 ng/ml platelet rich plasma (PRP)) was the only PGE1 metabolite inhibiting the ADP-induced platelet aggregation, its efficacy being 76.4% of the parent compound PGE1 (ID 50 = 8.25 ng/ml PRP). NO (ID 50 = 0.52 microM) also inhibited platelet aggregation. The combined addition of 13,14-dihydro-prostaglandin E1 (13,14-DH-PGE1) and NO caused an additive effect. The other PGE1-metabolites tested, 15-keto prostaglandin (15-K-PGE1) (ID 50 = 16.2. micrograms/ml PRP) and 15-keto-13,14-dihydro-prostaglandin(15-K-13,14-DH-PGE1) (ID 50 = 14.8 micrograms/ml PRP), neither had any relevant antiaggregatory capacity themselves nor a synergistic effect with NO. These findings could be of clinical relevance as a NO-synergism may occur not only with therapeutically administered PGE1 but also with its biologically active metabolite 13,14-DH-PGE1.  相似文献

Free oxygen radical scavenging activity of brahma rasayana (BR) was studied by in vitro and in vivo models. Addition of aqueous extract of BR was found to scavenge the lipid peroxides already present in rat liver homogenate (IC50 700 micrograms/ml) and inhibit the lipid peroxide generated by Fe(2+)-ascorbate (IC50 2600 micrograms/ml) and Fe(3+)-ADP-ascorbate system (IC50 1200 micrograms/ml). BR was found to scavenge the hydroxyl radical generated by Fenton reaction (IC50 7400 micrograms/ml) and superoxide generated by photoreduction of riboflavin (IC50 180 micrograms/ml). BR was also found to inhibit the nitric oxide radical generated in vitro from sodium nitroprusside (IC50 5.5 micrograms/ml). Oral administration of BR (50 mg/dose/animal) was found to inhibit the PMA induced superoxide generation in mice peritoneal macrophages. Oral administration of BR; 10 and 50 mg/dose/animal was also found to inhibit the nitrite production in peritoneal macrophages and percentage inhibition was 25.2% and 37.8% respectively. These results indicate significant antioxidant activity of BR in vitro and in vivo.  相似文献

The evaluation of the activity of the aqueous and ethyl acetate extracts of the leaves of Piper regnellii was tested against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. The aqueous extract displayed a weak activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus subtilis with minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimal bactericidal concentration (MBC) of 1000 micrograms/ml. The ethyl acetate extract presented a good activity against S. aureus and B. subtilis with MIC and MBC at 15.62 micrograms/ml. In contrast to the relative low MICs for gram-positive bacteria, gram-negative bacteria were not inhibited by the extracts at concentrations < or = 1000 mg/ml. The ethyl acetate extract was fractionated on silica gel into nine fractions. The hexane and chloroform fractions were active against S. aureus (MIC at 3.9 micrograms/ml) and B. subtilis (MIC at 3.9 and 7.8 micrograms/ml, respectively). Using bioactivity-directed fractionation, the hexane fraction was rechromatographed to yield the antimicrobial compounds 1, 2, 5, and 6 identified as eupomatenoid-6, eupomatenoid-5, eupomatenoid-3, and conocarpan, respectively. The pure compounds 1 and 2 showed a good activity against S. aureus with MIC of 1.56 micrograms/ml and 3.12 micrograms/ml, respectively. Both compounds presented MIC of 3.12 micrograms/ml against B. subtilis. The pure compound 6 named as conocarpan was quite active against S. aureus and B. subtilis with MIC of 6.25 micrograms/ml. The antibacterial properties of P. regnellii justify its use in traditional medicine for the treatment of wounds, contaminated through bacteria infections.  相似文献

The efficacy of electrolytically generated copper and silver ions (400 and 40 micrograms/L, respectively) was evaluated separately and in combination with free chlorine (0.2 and 0.3 mg/L) for the inactivation of coliphage MS-2 and poliovirus type 1 in water at pH 7.3. The inactivation rate was calculated as log10 reduction/min: k = -(log10 Ct/C0)/t. The inactivation of both viruses was at least 100 times slower in water containing 400 and 40 micrograms/L copper and silver, respectively (k = 0.023 and 0.0006 for MS-2 and poliovirus, respectively), compared with water containing 0.3 mg/L free chlorine (k = 4.88 and 0.036). Significant increases in the inactivation rates of both viruses were observed in test systems containing 400 and 40 micrograms/L copper and silver, respectively, with 0.3 mg/L free chlorine when compared with the water systems containing either metals or free chlorine alone. Poliovirus was approximately 10 times more resistant to the disinfectants than coliphage MS-2. This observation suggests either a synergistic or an additive effect between the metals and chlorine for inactivation of enteric viruses. Use of copper and silver ions in water systems currently used in swimming pools and spas may provide an alternative to high levels of chlorination.  相似文献

Caco-2 cells (exhibiting characteristics of mature villus enterocytes) were used to determine bacteria (Salmonella enteritidis causing human gastroenteritis)-intestinal cell interactions. The interference of bacteria with the transepithelial electrical resistance (TEER) of filter-grown Caco-2 cells and the production of IL-8 after exposure of the cells to S. enteritidis 857 and/or Lactobacillus strains (L. gasseri LF221 and L. rhamnosus BGT10) was evaluated. The strain 857 decreased TEER of filter-grown Caco-2 cells; in contrast, lactobacilli had a little or no effect. The effect of S. enteritidis on the TEER decreased if Caco-2 cells were pre-incubated with lactobacilli. This strain induced high levels of IL-8 (which can lead to cell damage). Compared to the IL-8 synthesis after exposure of Caco-2 cells to S. enteritidis 857, simultaneous exposure of Caco-2 cells to S. enteritidis and lactobacilli inhibited the IL-8 synthesis after short recovery periods.  相似文献

Propionibacterium acnes have been recognized as one of the main causative agents in pathogenesis of acne. Twenty one isolates of P. acnes isolated from acne lesions were screened for lipase and protease activity which are reported to be associated in acne and inflammation. Interestingly, all P. acnes isolates demonstrated lipase activity. Similarly, 90% of test P. acnes produced protease enzyme. Antibacterial activity of the ethanol extract of Rhodomyrtus tomentosa (Aiton) Hassk. leaves and rhodomyrtone, its principle compound were tested against P. acnes using broth macrodilution method. The MIC(90) values of the ethanol extract and rhodomyrtone were 32 and 0.5 μg/mL, respectively. The numbers of the bacterial cells were reduced at least 99% after treatment with the ethanol extract and rhodomyrtone within 72 and 24 h, respectively. Cytotoxicity test of the extract and rhodomyrtone was performed on human normal fibroblast. The IC(50) values of the ethanol extract and rhodomyrtone were 476 and more than 200 μg/mL, approximately 15 and 400 folds higher than the MIC(90) values indicating that both substances were very low cytotoxic which could be applied as topical therapeutic anti-acne agents.  相似文献

为了解不同消毒剂对大黄鱼中致病性弧菌的抑菌效果。采用纸片扩散法比较了聚维酮碘(PVP-I)、聚六亚甲基双胍(PHMB)和过氧化氢(H2O2)对溶藻弧菌和副溶血性弧菌的抑菌效果,再以肉汤稀释法测定了三种消毒剂的最低抑菌浓度(MIC)、最低杀菌浓度(MBC)及MBC/MIC比值,在此基础上,获得了抑菌效果相对较优的H2O2、PHMB对溶藻弧菌、副溶血性弧菌及其混菌的杀菌动力学曲线。结果表明,H2O2(3%)对两种弧菌具有最大的抑菌圈直径(19~21mm),PHMB(30mg/mL)次之(约为15mm),PVP-I(10%)的抑菌效果最弱(小于10mm)。3种消毒剂的MIC值由小到大依次为PHMB相似文献

Sensitivity of L-forms of group A streptococci to 5 antibiotics such as erythromycin, lincomycin, tetracycline, gentamicin and chloramphenicol was studied in an artificial nutrient medium and cell cultures i.e. human fibroblast diploid cells and transplantable human heart cells (Girardi). In vitro investigation of the antibiotic effect on the streptococcal L-forms revealed their sensitivity to erythromycin (MIC, 0.4 micrograms/ml), lincomycin (MIC, 0.08 microgram/ml) and tetracycline (MIC, 2 micrograms/ml). The streptococcal L-forms were slightly sensitive to gentamicin (MIC, 6 micrograms/ml) and chloramphenicol (MIC, 30 micrograms/ml). Complete inhibition of the growth of the L-forms in the Girardi cells on the 1st day of the experiment after the antibiotics administration in single doses was induced by lincomycin, 5 micrograms/ml, erythromycin, 10 micrograms/ml, and tetracycline, 100 micrograms/ml. In the diploid cells, the respective figures were 50, 100 and 200 micrograms/ml. Chloramphenicol and gentamicin had an inhibitory effect on the growth of the L-forms but produced no sanative effect.  相似文献

Plaunotol was tested for possible antibacterial activity against twenty strains of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and fourteen strains of methicillin-sensitive S. aureus (MSSA) which had been isolated from the skin of patients with atopic dermatitis under growth-promoting conditions. Plaunotol was effective against all strains tested. The dose of plaunotol for 50% inhibition of growth (ID50) ranged from 2.5 to 16 micrograms/ml for strains of MRSA and from 2.5 to 7.0 micrograms/ml for those of MSSA. These results suggest that plaunotol may be useful in the prevention of infection by MRSA and in skin care for patients with atopic dermatitis.  相似文献

A series of 3-acetyl-2,5-disubstituted-2,3-dihydro-1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives was synthesized and their activity screened in vitro against Staphylococcus aureus, Trypanosoma cruzi, and Candida albicans. The bioactivity was expressed as minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) for S. aureus strains, and as fifty-percent inhibitory concentration (IC(50)) of parasite population growth for T. cruzi. A molecular modeling approach was performed to establish qualitative relationships regarding the biological data and the compounds' physicochemical properties. The 5-(4-OC(4)H(9)Ph, 5l), and 5-(4-CO(2)CH(3)Ph, 5o) derivatives were the most active compounds for S. aureus ATCC 25923 (MIC=1.95-1.25 μg/mL) and T. cruzi (IC(50)=7.91 μM), respectively. Also, a preliminary evaluation against C. albicans involving some compounds was performed and the 5-(4-CH(3)Ph, 5e) derivative was the most active compound (MIC=3.28-2.95 μg/mL). In this preliminary study, all synthesized 3-acetyl-2,5-disubstituted-2,3-dihydro-1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives were active against all microorganisms tested.  相似文献

Thirty-one traditional crude drugs and several pure compounds were examined for their possible regulatory effect on nitric oxide (NO) levels using sodium nitroprusside as a NO donor in vitro. Most of the crude drugs tested demonstrated direct scavenging of NO. Eight crude drugs, including Sanguisorbae Radix, Caryophylli Flos, Gambir, Coptidis Rhizoma, Granati Cortex, Gallae Rhois, Rhei Rhizoma and Cinnamomi Cortex exhibited significant activity (IC50 values < 1000 micrograms/ml), and with the exception of Coptidis Rhizoma, all were found to contain tannins as their major constituents. In addition, some crude drugs containing flavonoids or essential oils also appeared to act against NO. Ten major tannins contained in Sanguisorbae Radix and Rhei Rhizoma showed high scavenging activity (IC50 values < 326.3 micrograms/ml), and 6 of 8 alkaloids obtained from Coptidis Rhizoma also effectively scavenged the NO radical (IC50 values < 455.4 micrograms/ml). It was indicated that these compounds may be the active principles of the crude drugs responsible for NO scavenging. The present results suggest that traditional crude drugs might be potent and novel therapeutic agents for scavenging of NO and the regulation of pathological conditions caused by excessive NO and its oxidation product, peroxynitrite. These findings may also help to explain, at least in part, certain pharmacological activities of crude drugs, especially anti-infection and anti-inflammatory activities.  相似文献
