Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPreparation of Antimicrobial Collagen Casings with High Mechanical PropertiesZhike Xie, Shuyan Yu, Ming He et al.Tea Polyphenols (TP) has received much attention for their excellent antioxidant and antibacterial activities. Some additives (such as sodium alginate and sodium pyrophosphate) have good hydrophobicity which have influence on the mechanical properties of food. The effect of TP on the antibacterial activity of collagen casing was investigated, the effect of addition of TP, sodium pyrophosphate and sodium alginate on … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 16, Issue 3 · 2 Sep 2020 · 6,627 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 · 5,481 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAntifungal Potential of Leptadenia Hastata Against Some Pathogenic FungiIsaac John Umaru, Fasihuddin A. Badruddin, Henry Y. Wakawa et al.The objective of this study was to evaluate if the plant extract could provide antifungal potential against some pathogenic fungi. Extract of Dichloromethane solvents was used for disc diffusion assay. The inhibitory concentration of the extract was performed by broth dilution method and zone of inhibition was studied by disc diffusion method at the concentration of 25, 50, 100, 250, … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 9 Mar 2018 · 10,158 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Overview of the Antimicrobial Activity of Some Microbial EnzymesAkram N. Salah, Hayam Atallah AlwabsiEnzymes are substances produced by living organisms that are used to catalyze some biological and biochemical reactions as they either catalyze some types of polysaccharides and proteins or lyse complex materials such as polymers and lipids. Microbial enzymes are defined as the enzymes that can be extracted and purified from bacterial strains such as Bacillus spp., Pseudomonas spp., Streptomyces, or … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 20, Issue 2 · 11 Jun 2024 · 6,081 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiosynthesis of Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles and Assay of Antibacterial ActivityEmad J. Ibrahem, Karkaz M. Thalij, Mahmood K. Saleh, Amin S. BadawyIn this study Out of 280 urinary tract infections samples, 212(75.7%) bacterial isolates were recovered. Based on, morphological, cultural and biochemical testes, further, confirmed the results by VITEK 2 System there were 54 (30.2%) of gram positive whereas the 158 (69.8%) of gram negative. The bacterial isolates were distributed as Escherichia coli followed by Klebsiella pneumoniae, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 3 Apr 2017 · 8,880 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEssential Oil Chemical Composition of Myrtle Growing in Northeastern Algeria and Estimation of its Antibacterial EffectivenessBarhouchi Badra, Aouadi Saoudi, Abdi AkilaThe aim of this study is to determine the antibacterial effectiveness of leaves essential oil extracted from myrtle growing in Algeria. A cluster analysis of soil and water was effectuated for performing chemical and granulometric analyses. The essential oil was isolated from leaves by hydro distillation and analyzed by Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC/MS). The leaves yield reached a peak at … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 5 Apr 2016 · 8,356 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEVALUATION OF ANTIMICROBIAL ACTIVITY IN OLIVE (OLEA EUROPAEA) LEAF EXTRACTMukadderat Gökmen, Recep Kara, Levent Akkaya et al.In this study the antimicrobial activity of Olive Leaf Extracts (OLE) was screened against five gram-positive and five gram-negative bacteria. The antimicrobial activity was evaluated using disc diffusion and microdilution methods. The diameters of inhibition zones of the olive leaf extract were observed 13.33±2.08 mm against S. typhimurium and 21.67±1.53 mm against B. cereus. There was a similarity between the … …Current Research in Microbiology, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 15 Jan 2015 · 15,214 accessesView PDFCite
