Efficacy of Essential Oil of Algrizea minor Sobral, Faria & Proença (Myrtaceae) in Combating Methicillin‐resistant Staphylococcus aureus: Antibacterial and Virulence Modulation Studies Conducted In Vitro and In Vivo

Chemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
This study explored the antibacterial, antivirulence, and in vivo effects of Algrizea minor essential oil (EOAM), against MRSA isolates. Chemical analysis by GC‐MS has been performed. The oil exhibited synergistic effects when combined with amoxicillin and oxacillin, inhibiting biofilm formation and reducing S. aureus‐induced hemolysis.

Reactivity of Carbohydrate Phosphodiesters, Potential Targets of Antibacterial Agents

Chemistry &Biodiversity, EarlyView.
A simple carbohydrate phosphodiester model was synthesized to compare the reactivity of phosphodiester bonds within carbohydrates and RNA. ABSTRACT While monosaccharide units in bacterial carbohydrates may be linked with phosphodiester bonds, human carbohydrates exclusively contain glycosidic linkages.
