Antibacterial Effect of Shenju Lotion in Vitro / 医药导报

Objective To study the antibacterial effect of Shenju lotion in vitro. Methods The diameter of inhibition zone was determined by paper-disc agar-diffusion method. Minimum inhibitory concentration ( MIC) and Minimum bactericidal concentration ( MBC ) was determined by culture medium dilution methodand agar medium plate method, respectively. Antibacterial effect was compared between Shenju lotion and city sale of the gynecological lotion. Results Inhibitory effects of Shenju lotion on 5 pathogenic strains were significantly better than that of city sale of the gynecological lotion at the same concentrations (P<0. 05). MIC of Shenju lotion on Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis and Candida albicans was 33. 75, 67. 5, 67. 5, 67. 5 and 33. 75 mg ·mL-1 , respectively. MBC of Shenju lotion on Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis and Candida albicans was 33. 75, 67. 5, 67. 5, 135 and 33. 75 mg ·mL-1 , respectively. Conclusion Shenju lotion has obvious bacteriostasis and sterilization effect.

Synthesis and antimicrobial study of N-[4-(2-piperidine-1-yl-ethoxy) phenyl] acetamide analogues.

In the present study, a novel series of N-[4-(2-piperidine-1-yl-ethoxy) phenyl]- acetamides were synthesized from 4-aminophenol and characterised by IR, 1H-NMR, Mass spectral studies and elemental analysis. The antimicrobial potency of compounds is tested against variety of fungal and bacterial strains by disc agar diffusion technique. in comparison to to fluconazole and chloramphenicol respectively. Some of the synthesized compounds exhibit the potency comparable to that of standard drugs.

Biochemical characters and antibiotic susceptibility of Staphylococcus aureus isolates

Objective: To observe the biochemical characters and antibiotic susceptibility of isolated Staphylococcus aureus (S. auerus) strains against some conventional and traditional antibiotics.Methods:Bacterial culture was done in Mueller-Hinton broth at 37 ℃. Characters of these strains were determined by traditional biochemical tests such as hydrolysis test of gelatin, urea, galactose, starch and protein, and fermentation of lactose and sucrose. Antibiotic susceptibility were carried out by minimum inhibitory concentration test, minium bactericidal concentration test, disc agar diffusion test and brain heart infusion oxacillin screening agar. Results: From this study, it was observed that 100% S. aureus isolates showed positive results in gelatin, urea and galactose hydrolysis test, 50% isolates were positive in starch hydrolysis test, 35% in protein hydrolysis test, 100% isolates in lactose fermenting test, but no isolate was positive in sucrose fermenting test. Antibiotic susceptibility testing suggested that 20% of isolates were resistant to kanamycin and 46.67% were resistant to oxacillin. Conclusions: These findings show that all these isolates have gelatin, urea, galactose hydrolysis and lactose fermenting activity. 20% of these isolates were resistant to kanamycin and 46.67% were resistant to oxacillin. Thirty post operative pathogenic isolated S. aureus strains were used in this study.
