The need for new antimicrobial agents is becoming one of the most urgent requirements in modern medicine (World Health Organization‚ April 2014). As a result‚ researchers are investigating alternative ways for developing better treatment for microbial-caused diseases one of

Mechanisms of Silver Nanoparticle Action in Bacteria and Potential for Bacterial Resistance The antimicrobial activity of silver in general‚ and of silver nanoparticles in particular‚ is of significant interest because it appears to be independent of the strain of bacteria. Crucially‚ antibiotic resistant strains‚ MRSA (methicillin‚ or multiple-resistant Staphylococcus aureus)‚ E. coli O157‚ and others are affected by silver [6]. The reasons for this are not fully clear as yet‚ but could be related

Abstract The antimicrobial activity of alkaloids‚ tannins‚ saponins‚ flavonoids‚ phenol and cardic glycoside present in the various parts of Chrysophyllum albidium plant were investigated. These phytochemical were determined quantitatively and tested against staphylococcus aureus‚ B. subtilis‚ pseudomonas aeruginosa‚ E. coli‚ C. tetani‚ and the fungus; candida albicans. Most the plant parts were found to contain alkaloids‚ tannins‚ phenols and flavonoids except for the absence of cardic glycosides
