Article Synopsis
- Plant extracts, particularly from hops, show strong antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus strains, effective in both free-floating and biofilm forms, making them viable for oral care.
- The hop extract worked as well as standard antibiotics (amikacin, ciprofloxacin, and ceftriaxone) and exhibited synergy, enhancing the effectiveness of these antibiotics against various bacterial isolates.
- Chemical analysis of the extract identified key compounds (prenylated flavonoids and acylphloroglucides) that contribute to its antimicrobial effects and ability to reduce the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of antibiotics, suggesting its potential as both an antiseptic and a complement to conventional treatments.
