A novel antibacterial peptide specific to Streptococcus pyogenes was produced from dried fruit protein of Brucea javanica (L.) Merr. A mixture of active peptides from the fruit protein was produced in vitro by pepsin hydrolysis. The hydrolysate was purified by reverse-phase HPLC, and antimicrobial
In the present study, the leaves of Rhus javanica (R. javanica) were extracted with ethanol, and we investigated the antimicrobial activity of the ethanol extract of R. javanica against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Control groups were treated with media containing 0.1% DMSO.
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the activity of selected Ethiopian medicinal plants traditionally used for wound treatment against wound-causing bacteria.
METHODS
Samples of medicinal plants (Achyranthes aspera, Brucea antidysenterica, Datura stramonium, Croton macrostachyus, Acokanthera schimperi, Phytolacca
Background: Diarrhoea has been the major cause of death especially in children of developing countries. Brucea antidysenterica is one of the several medicinal plants used traditionally for the treatment of diarrhoea in Ethiopia. Hence,
OBJECTIVE
To isolate and identify endophytic fungi from Brucea javanica, and to detect the antimicrobial activity of these strains.
METHODS
Endophytic fungi were isolated by tissue inoculation culture and identified by conventional morphological characteristic method. Seven kinds of pathogenic fungi
Bruceantinol (BOL), a quassinoid compound isolated from the fruits of Brucea javanica, has been reported to have cytotoxic and antibacterial effects. In this study, a rapid, sensitive, and specific ultra-performance liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) method was
