Article Snippet: Red propolis, green propolis, and brown propolis (traditionally extracted using ethanol or supercritical extraction method) , Brazil , S. aureus (ATCC 25923) and Enterococcus sp. (ATCC 29712), Klebsiella sp. (ATCC 1706/700603), and E. coli (ATCC 25922) , In vitro (micro-dilution assay) , Of all samples, Brazilian red propolis extract yielded the highest antibacterial activity. Green propolis extract demonstrated weak to moderate antibacterial activity for most samples and brown propolis extract did not yield any antibacterial effect against the tested strains. None of the examined samples was active against E. coli , [ ] .

Figure Lengend Snippet: Thermal melt curves of gDNA (salmon) and gDNA:MGB-BP-3 Complex. (A) Exemplar melt curve from one experimental repeat, visually representing the different melt curves of gDNA and the gDNA:MGB-BP-3 Complex. Data has been fitted with a Boltzmann distribution. (B) Melting temperatures of gDNA and gDNA:MGB-BP-3 Complex calculated from fitted Boltzmann distributions using OriginPro 2021. All values are an average for n = 4 experimental repeats with an error of ±1 °C.
