Antibacterial activity of two limonoids from Swietenia mahagoni against multiple-drug-resistant (MDR) bacterial strains

Journal of Natural Medicines, 2008
Solvent partitioning followed by column chromatography of the MeOH extract of the seeds of Swietenia mahagoni afforded two limonoids, swietenolide (1) and 2-hydroxy-3-O-tigloylswietenolide (2). The compounds were identified by spectroscopic means. The antibacterial activity of these compounds was assessed against eight multiple-drug-resistant bacterial

Treatment of post-burns bacterial infections by Fenton reagent, particularly the ubiquitous multiple drug resistant Pseudomonas spp.

Medical Hypotheses, 2003
Post-burn microbial infections are a major problem in burns, and in cases of third degree burns, the survival of patients can depend not only upon the severity but also upon the extent and the type of infections. If proper measures are not employed, patients may suffer from opportunistic bacterial attacks, which can vary from simple infection, such as ...

Overview of Molecular Diagnostics in Multiple-Drug-Resistant Organism Prevention: Focus on Multiple-Drug-Resistant Gram-Negative Bacterial Organisms

2016
The combination of increasing rates of antibiotic resistance and the decreasing pace of new antibiotic development has become an urgent public health crisis (1). Multiple-drug-resistant bacterial organisms (MDROs) have now become common causes of health care-associated infection (HAI), the most prevalent being methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus ...

Multiple drug resistant bacterial biofilms on implanted catheters - a reservoir of infection.

The Journal of the Association of Physicians of India, 2014
Medical devices are an essential part of modern health-care, but its usage has led to the emergence of medical device associated infections otherwise known as Foreign-Body related infections (FBRIs). This is caused by bacterial adhesion and biofilm formation on their surfaces which act as a nidus of infection.
