Treatment strategy by lactoperoxidase and lactoferrin combination: Immunomodulatory and antibacterial activity against multidrug-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii.

Lactoperoxidase (Lpo) and Lactoferrin (Lf) were extracted from camel colostrum milk and purified. The antibacterial activity of the two purified proteins was estimated against 14 isolates of multidrug resistance Acinetobacter baumannii. A combination of Lpo and Lf exhibited bactericidal action against A.

Two novel roles of buffalo milk lactoperoxidase, antibiofilm agent and immunomodulator against multidrug resistant Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi and Listeria monocytogenes.

The increasing occurrence of multidrug resistant bacteria causing bacteremia infection, constitutes a major health problem, difficult-to-treat bacteremia due to its ability to form biofilm. Buffalo milk lactoperoxidase (BMLpo) is effective and safe to use as bacteriostatic agent. The MIC of BMLpo and amikacin were used to evaluate the antibiofilm activity against resistant L.
