Antioxidant: Antimycobacterial and Antibiofilm Activities of Acetone Extract and Subfraction Jacq. ex Willd. Against .

Tuberculosis is a worldwide prevalent and recurring disease that contributes significantly to high mortality rates. This study aimed to investigate the antioxidant, anti-mycobacterial, and antibiofilm activities of acetone crude extract. The crude acetone extract was fractionated using column chromatography and characterized by liquid chromatography-mass spectroscopy (LC-MS).

Antioxidant, antibacterial, and anti-biofilm activities of selected indigenous plant species against nosocomial bacterial pathogens.

Biofilms are responsible for over 60% of nosocomial infections. The focus of this study was to investigate the antioxidant, antibacterial, antibiofilm, and anti-motility activities of Gardenia volkensii, Carissa bispinosa, Peltophorum africanum, and Senna petersiana. Antioxidant activity was evaluated using free radical (DPPH) scavenging and ferric reducing power assays.

Evaluation of the Antioxidant, Cytotoxicity, Antibacterial, Anti-Motility, and Anti-Biofilm Effects of Welw. Leaves and Stem Defatted Subfractions.

The formation of biofilms underscores the challenge of treating bacterial infections. The study aimed to assess the antioxidant, cytotoxicity, antibacterial, anti-motility, and anti-biofilm effects of defatted fractions from (resurrection plant). Antioxidant activity was assessed using DPPH radical scavenging and hydrogen peroxide assays.
