Spathulenol was isolated from an extract of Azorella compacta Phil., Apiaceae, by various chromatographic method; identification the chemical structure confirmed comparing its spectroscopic data with those reported in literature. The anti-Mycobacterium tuberculosis activity spathulenol evaluated on MDR, pre-XDR, and XDR clinical isolates M. tuberculosis, as well reference susceptible strain H37Rv cytotoxic Vero Cell Line. anti-M. twice potent against (6.25 µg/ml) than (12.5 µg/ml)....
Schoepfia schreberi has been used in Mayan folk medicine to treat diarrhea and cough. This study aimed determine the anti-growth, anti-resistance, anti-virulence activities of S. extracts against Acinetobacter baumannii, a pathogen leader that causes healthcare-associated infections with high rates drug-resistant including carbapenems, last line antibiotics known as superbugs, analyze their composition using HPLC-DAD. Ethyl acetate (SSB-3) methanol (SSB-4) bark exhibit antimicrobial biocidal...
infections are prevalent in healthcare and community environments. Methicillin-resistant
Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula is an endemic area of cutaneous leishmaniasis, locally known as the chiclero's ulcer, and Mayan traditional medicine which refers to use
Urinary tract infections (UTI) are a severe public health problem and caused mainly by the uropathogenic
Air-dried leaves of a Musa spp. AAB, cv. "Manzano" plant, known as Ja'as in the Maya culture, were sequentially extracted with hexane, ethyl acetate, and methanol; resulting extracts investigated for their antimycobacterial activity against susceptible drug-resistant strains Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) using Microplate Alamar Blue Assay. Both n-hexane extract (HE) acetate (EE) showed potent both MTB, EE exhibiting strongest Minimum Inhibitory Concentration 12.5 6.25 μg/mL strains,...
(1) Background: Carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (CBRAB) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (CBRPA) are critical high-priority pathogens that require new therapeutic developments. Medicinal plants valuable pharmaceutical resources. This study explored the anti-infective properties of Mayan plants, Bignonia potosina, Thouinia paucidentata. (2) Methods: Plant parts were extracted using n-hexane, their ability to inhibit bacterial growth counteract resistance mechanisms virulence factors in...
La infección del tracto urinario es una de las enfermedades infecciosas más frecuentes en todo el mundo y su principal agente causal Escherichia coli. Esta bacteria un habitante común nuestro intestino, sin embargo, cuando llega al aparato puede ocasionar este padecimiento. Para causar estas infecciones, E. coli utiliza diversos mecanismos que le permiten ascender vivir urinario. Afortunadamente hoy día se cuenta con diferentes antimicrobianos para eliminar patógeno. En artículo conoceremos...
Tuberculosis causes more than 1.2 million deaths each year. Worldwide, it is the first cause of death by a single infectious agent. The emergence drug-resistant strains has limited pharmacological treatment disease and today, new drugs are urgently needed. Semi-synthetic mulinanes have previously shown important activity against multidrug-resistant (MDR) Mycobacterium tuberculosis. In this investigation, set semi-synthetic were synthetized, characterized, evaluated for their in vitro three...
Intensive care units (ICU) are the epicenter of antimicrobial resistance (AMR), and patients' infections mainly caused by Gram-negative bacteria (GNB).To describe frequency trends in AMR GNB deriving from clinical samples ICU patients at a tertiary hospital Mérida, Yucatán.Study which included review laboratory reports all bacteriological collected admitted to neonatal, pediatric adult January 1 2019 December 31 2021.433 isolates were recovered, with Klebsiella pneumoniae being most...
