Article Title: Investigation of Antibacterial and Antiinflammatory Activities of Proanthocyanidins from Pelargonium sidoides DC Root Extract

doi: 10.3390/nu11112829

Figure Lengend Snippet: Antibacterial activity of Pelargonium sidoides root extract (PSRE) and proanthocyanidins from PSRE (PACN) towards Staphylococcus aureus ( a ), S. epidermidis ( b ), Escherichia coli ( c ) and Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans ( d ). RFU—relative fluorescence units. Bars represent means and standard deviations of six experimental replicates. * = p < 0.05 vs. untreated control.

Article Snippet: Commercially available strains Staphylococcus aureus ( S. aureus , pathogen, ATCC 43300), Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans ( A. actinomycetemcomitans , pathogen, ATCC 33384) and Escherichia coli ( E. coli , non-pathogen, ATCC BAA-1427) were purchased from the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC, MA, USA) and cultivated following the manufacturer’s instructions.

Techniques: Activity Assay, Fluorescence, Control

Article Snippet: Similarly, Choi et al. demonstrated that LAB, including Lacticaseibacillus curvatus KCCM 43119, Leuconostoc mesenteroides KCCM 43060, Weissella cibaria KCTC 3746, and Weissella koreensis KCCM 41517, could almost completely prevent the growth of four foodborne pathogens ( Salmonella Enteritidis KCCM 12021, Salmonella Typhimurium KCTC 1925, Staphylococcus aureus KCCM 11335, and Escherichia coli O157:H7 ATCC 35150), increasing the inhibition ratio from 93% to 100% [ ].
