ABSTRACT
Objective To study the antibacterial effect of borneol, honey, gentamicin in Ruchuang Bingmi hydropathic compress agent.Method Staphylococcus aureus(S.aureus), Escherichia coli(E.coli), Pseudomonas aeruginosa(P.aeruginosa) were used to produce the third phase of infection decubitus animal models, respectively.Vaseline as the control group, divided into 12 groups:Vaseline-S.aureus, Vaseline-E.coli, Vaseline-P.aeruginosa;Honey-S.aureus,Honey-E.coli,Honey-P.aeruginosa;Borneol -S.aureus;Borneol -E.coli;Borneol-P.aeruginosa;Gentamicin-S.aureus;Gentamicin-E.coli;Gentamicin-P.aeruginosa;6 rabbits in each group.Honey, borneol, gentamicin was made into a gauze in treatment for decubitus .Organizations do strain identification and colony counts was observed before and after taking the treatment.ResuIts Borneol group ( F =11.059,P<0.01).,there was differences of each groups count cultured by borneol;Time ×Strains(F=11.281,P=0.009),there was no significant interaction between the two groups;gentamicin(F=7.99,P=0.000),gentamicin culture showed a difference in each group count;Time ×Strains(F=12.531, P<0.07),interaction between the two groups showed significant.Borneol has no antibacterial effects on P.aeruginosa , had a certain antibacterial activityon S.aureus and E coli;gentamicin had good antibacterial effect on the three kinds of bacteria, and against P.aeruginosa was particularly significant.ConcIusion The antibacterial activity of gentamicin is better than single herbs borneol in Ruchuang Bingmi hydropathic compress agent, honey has no antibacterial effect.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study antibacterial effect of formulas, borneol, honey, gentamicin in wet honey ice bedsores.Methods The third-stage infective bedsore model in rabbit were estabished with Staphylococcus aureus ( S.aureus) , Escherichia coli ( E.coli) , and Pseudomonas aeruginosa ( P. aeruginosa).The rabbits with bedsore were respectively compressed with gauze of honey+borneol, honey+gentamicin,borneol+gentamicin,borneol+gentamicin+honey, vaseline as control group.The strain identification and colony counts were observed before and after treatment.ResuIts The colony count of S.aureus, E.coli and P.aeruginosa in honey+borneol, honey+gentamicin, borneol+gentamicin, borneol+gentamicin+honey post-treatment was significantly higher than that of pre-treatment, respectively (P<0.05).The colony count of three strains in above four formulas post-treatment was significantly lower than that in vaseline group, respectively (P <0.05).The colony count of three strains in borneol +gentamicin +honey (original formula) post-treatment was significantly lower than that in the other formulas, respectively (P<0.05).ConcIusion The antibacterial effect of borneol+gentamicin+honey (original formula) is the best.
