Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEvaluation on Antibacterial Activity of Lactobacillus acidophilus Strains Isolated from HoneyMohamed Mustafa Aween, Zaiton Hassan, Belal J. Muhialdin et al.Problem statement: This study reports the isolation of lactic acid bacteria from 13 honey samples produced in Malaysia, Libya and Saudi Arabia and their antibacterial activity against three Gram negative pathogenic bacteria. Approach: A modified MRS agar with 0.8% CaCO3 and MRS with 1% glucose was found to facilitate isolation of LAB compared to MRS, tomato juice agar and modified … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 6 · 14 Mar 2012 · 11,377 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPrevalence and Determinants of Antibiotic Use by the Elderly in Marrakech, MoroccoNaima Aoutil, Mohamed Cherkaoui, Mohamed BouskraouiAntibiotics are essential for the prevention and treatment of bacterial infections; however, their inappropriate use among elderly populations poses serious risks, including the emergence of multidrug-resistant organisms. Antimicrobial resistance has become a critical global public health challenge, with irrational antibiotic use being one of its primary drivers. In Morocco, data on antibiotic use among older adults remain scarce, particularly regarding … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 1 · 13 Apr 2026 · 1,370 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of Multiplex PCR Panel on Reducing Broad-Spectrum Antibiotic Use in Ventilator-Associated PneumoniaMaría Inés Staneloni, Emilio F. Huaier Arriazu et al.The extended use of broad-spectrum antimicrobials contribute to the growing threat of antimicrobial resistance. This study evaluated the impact of a multimodal strategy aiming at reducing the duration of broad-spectrum antimicrobial therapy in Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia (VAP). Conducted in a single Intensive Care Unit (ICU), this quasi-experimental, retrospective study compares a pre-intervention period (08/01/2018-07/01/2019) with an intervention period (08/01/2022-07/01/2023). Adult patients … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 8 Jul 2025 · 6,589 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Evaluation of Synergistic Antibacterial Effects in Blended Essential Oil against Gram-Positive and Gram-Negative PathogensMin-Gi Kwon, Jae Kyung KimThe rising emergence of multidrug-resistant bacteria has heightened the search for novel antibiotic agents. Essential Oils (EOs) are complex combinations of volatile organic compounds generated by plants, with many exhibiting significant antimicrobial properties. This study evaluates the antibacterial movement of single and blended EOs against representative gram-positive bacteria Staphylococcus aureus and Methicillin-Resistant S. aureus (MRSA) and gram-negative bacteria Escherichia coli … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 2 · 7 Jul 2025 · 5,485 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFactors Associated with Irrational Use of Antibiotics. A Cross-Sectional Study in the City of Marrakech MoroccoNaima Aoutil, Mohamed Cherkaoui, Mohamed BouskraouiOveruse and inappropriate use of antibioticsleads to the emergence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. This resistance leadsto longer hospital stays, higher medical costs, and increased mortality. Therefore,its control must be a priority as it poses a threat to all nations, regardlessof their territory and economic status.In Marrakech too, antibioticresistance is a real public health problem, limiting treatment options.
