OBJECTIVE
The present study aimed to assess the antibacterial activity against bacteria with cariogenic relevance, toxic and genotoxic potential of the plants Anacardium occidentale L. and Anadenanthera macrocarpa (Benth.) Bernam.
METHODS
Using a microdilution technique, the extracts were submitted
This study evaluated the antibacterial activity of crude and fractionated leaf extracts of Anacardium occidentale, after receiving 10 kGy from 60Co, against multiresistant strains of Staphylococcus aureus in vitro. Minimum Inhibitory Concentrations-MIC and Minimum Bacteriostatic Concentrations-MBC
Nanocomposite materials have been proposed to enhance the properties of different materials. In this study, palygorskite (Pal) clay is proposed as a support matrix for silver nanoparticles stabilised with cashew gum (Anacardium occidentale L.) (AgNPs-CG), producing the Pal/AgNPs-CG nanocomposite,
The cashew nut shell liquid (CNSL) from the cashew nut shell of Anacardium occidentale L. has been used to treat skin infections, cracks on soles of feet and cancerous ulcers. In this study, we have purified the technical CNSL, systematically evaluated its anticancer, antibacterial and wound healing
The present study describes the development of a green synthesis of silver nanoparticles reduced and stabilized by exuded gum from Anacardium occidentale L. and evaluates in vitro their antibacterial and cytotoxic activities. Characterization of cashew gum-based silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) was
Crude extracts from eight Nigerian medicinal plants, used traditionally in the treatment of infectious and septic diseases in both humans and animals were screened in vitro for antibacterial activity, using the hole-plate diffusion method. Most of the extracts were active against gram-positive
BACKGROUND
Plants are known to play a crucial role in African traditional medicine for the treatment of infection diseases.
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the claimed antimicrobial properties of plants traditionally used in African countries, providing scientific validation for their
UNASSIGNED
Semecarpus anacardium Linn. is a plant well-known for its antimicrobial, antidiabetic and anti-arthritic properties in the Ayurvedic and Siddha system of medicine. This has prompted the screening of this plant for antibacterial activity. The main aims of this study were to isolate
Cardol (C₁₅:₃), isolated from cashew (Anacardium occidentale L.) nut shell liquid, has been shown to exhibit bactericidal activity against various strains of Staphylococcus aureus, including methicillin-resistant strains. The maximum level of reactive oxygen species generation was detected at around
The aqueous cashew leaves extract obtained was investigated for the preparation of gold nanoparticle (AuNPs). The obtained AuNPs were characterized by UV-Visible spectroscopy, FTIR and XRD analysis. Results indicated that the green synthesized AuNPs showed good antibacterial effect against
BACKGROUND
The challenge of antibiotic resistance and the emergence of new infections have generated considerable interest in the exploration of natural products from plant origins as combination therapy. In this context, crude ethanolic extract (CEE), ethyl acetate fraction (EAF), and methanolic
On the basis of antibacterial anacardic acids, 6-pentadecenylsalicylic acids, isolated from the cashew apple, Anacardium occidentale L. (Anacardiaceae), a series of 6-alk(en)ylsalicylic acids were synthesized and tested for their antibacterial activity against Streptococcus mutans ATCC 25175. Among
A series of anacardic acid analogues possessing different side chains viz. phenolic, branched, and alicyclic were synthesized and their antibacterial activity tested against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). The maximum activity against this bacterium occurred with the branched
Anacardic acid extracted from cashew nut shells of Anacardium occidentale L has demonstrated important biological activities, such as antibacterial activity against the cariogenic specie Streptococcus mutans. Zein nanoparticles containing anacardic acid (9.375 μg/mL) were evaluated in
OBJECTIVE
The effect of anacardic acid impregnation on catheter surfaces for the prevention of Staphylococcus aureus attachments and biofilm formations were evaluated.
RESULTS
Silicon catheter tubes were impregnated using different concentrations of anacardic acids (0·002-0·25%). Anacardic acids are
