The Biological Activity of L. Essential Oil and Its Effect as a Diet Supplement in Mice and Broiler Chicken.

The use of growth-promoting antibiotics in livestock faces increasing scrutiny and opposition due to concerns about the increased occurrence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. Alternative solutions are being sought, and plants of Lamiaceae may provide an alternative to synthetic antibiotics in animal nutrition. In this study, we extracted essential oil from , a member of the Lamiaceae family.

Pili Tree (Canarium ovatum) Resin's Antibacterial Essential Oil and Hydrosol as Rich Sources of (S)-Phellandrenes Derivatives.

Five batches of resin from the Pili tree (Canarium ovatum Engl.) were distilled, and their essential oils and hydrosols were analyzed by gas chromatography. The oils, obtained in yields of 13.

Balsacone C, a New Antibiotic Targeting Bacterial Cell Membranes, Inhibits Clinical Isolates of Methicillin-Resistant (MRSA) Without Inducing Resistance.

New options are urgently needed for the treatment of methicillin-resistant (MRSA) infections. Balsacone C is a new dihydrochalcone extracted from that has been reported previously as being active against . Here, we evaluate the antibacterial activity of balsacone C against MRSA.

Chemical composition and antibacterial activity of (L.) essential oil from Quebec, Canada.

The chemical composition of L. essential oil from the Saguenay-Lac-St-Jean region of Quebec, Canada was analyzed by gas chromatography-flame ionisation detector (GC-FID) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), and the antibacterial activity of the oil was tested against and . Forty-five (45) compounds were identified from the GC profile.

Anti-Inflammatory, Antioxidant, Antibiotic, and Cytotoxic Activities of Tanacetum vulgare L. Essential Oil and Its Constituents.

L. (Asteraceae) is a perennial herb that has been used to treat multiple ailments. Regional variability of the chemical composition of essential oils is well-known.

New antibacterial hydrophobic assay reveals Abies balsamea oleoresin activity against Staphylococcus aureus and MRSA.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Oleoresin of Abies balsamea (L.) Mill. was used by Native Americans of the boreal forest of Canada and French Canadians to treat various infections, suggesting that oleoresin has antibacterial properties.

Genetic structure and rabies spread potential in raccoons: the role of landscape barriers and sex-biased dispersal.

Identifying natural barriers to movements of hosts associated with infectious diseases is essential for developing effective control strategies. Raccoon rabies variant (RRV) is a zoonosis of concern for humans because its main vector, the raccoon (Procyon lotor), is found near residential areas. In Québec, Canada, all cases of RRV found in raccoons since 2006 were detected on the eastern side of the Richelieu River, suggesting that this river acts as a barrier to gene flow and thus the potential for RRV to spread.
