Title Antimicrobial properties in different type of plants. Introduction A substance that kills or prevents the growth of microorganisms for example bacteria‚ fungi or protozoans is called an antimicrobial. This substance has 2 major roles which are to either kill microbes (microbiocidal) or prevent the growth of microbes (microbiostatic). Disinfectants are antimicrobial substances used on non-living objects outside the body. This substance included antibiotics‚ antifungals‚ antiprotozoals and

Antimicrobial Resistance: Public Health Issue and Role of Nurses in Prevention Antimicrobial resistance is a significant global issue with serious implications for human health. The microorganisms that were previously sensitive to antibiotic treatment are now capable of withstanding attacks by antimicrobial medicines. One of the main reasons that cause antimicrobial resistance is the misuse of antibiotics‚ which includes an inappropriate selection of antibiotic type‚ dose‚ route‚ or duration of

If tea does have antimicrobial properties‚ then it could aid in warding off waterborne diseases. We believed that if black tea is steeped in boiled water‚ then the amount of bacteria exposed to this solution would decrease. We expected

This raises considerable challenges‚ particularly since there is increasing unease regarding the use of chemical preservatives and artificial antimicrobials to inactivate or inhibit growth of spoilage and pathogenic microorganisms.(Arques et al.‚ 2008; Aslim&Yucel‚ 2007; Brandi et al.‚ 2006; Cushnie et al.‚ 2005). As a consequence‚ natural antimicrobials are receiving a good deal of attention for a number of micro-organism-control issues. Reducing the need for antibiotics‚ controlling microbial
