Mangifera indica Linnaeus bark and dry Psidium guajava Linnaeus leaves have individually demonstrated activity against P. aeruginosa. This study aimed to assess the combined antibacterial activity of methanolic extracts of dry M. indica bark and dry P. guajava leaves on Multidrug-Resistant P. aeruginosa. Different proportion combinations of P. guajava and M. indica were assessed for antipseudomonal activity using Agar well diffusion method. Colistin was the positive control. The Fractional Inhibitory Concentration Index (FICI) was also determined. The combination of methanolic extracts of P. guajava leaves (35 mg/mL) and M. indica bark (6.25 mg/mL) had a superior antibacterial effect on Multidrug-Resistant P. aeruginosa when compared with the individual extracts used alone (p˂0.05), save for P. guajava (100 mg/mL) (p = 0.1373). Colistin was significantly more active on MDR P. aeruginosa than all the test extract concentrations used. This combination of M. indica bark and P. guajava leaves methanolic extracts had a FICI of 0.2434. This study demonstrates that the combination of P. guajava leaves (35 mg/mL) and M. indica bark (6.25 mg/mL) has synergistically enhanced activity against MDR P. aeruginosa. \u0000Keywords: Antipseudomonal, MDR Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Mangifera indica, and Psidium guajava","PeriodicalId":16803,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Pharmacy & Bioresources","volume":"11 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74393604","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Five extracts, obtained by maceration using n-hexane, chloroform, ethyl acetate, methanol and water sequentially were evaluated for antibacterial activities and time-kill kinetics against Streptococcus pyogenes, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli. Chloroform root extract at 100 mg/ml was active against Streptococcus pyogenes, Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa with zones of inhibition 25.00, 21.00 and 14.75 mm respectively but not against Escherichia coli.

Fresh fruits of Carissa edulis were crushed and extracted with 70 % methanol for 72 hours to obtain MeOH extract. Proximate analysis as well as mineral composition of the fresh fruits were determined. Total phenolic content (TPC), total flavonoids content (TFC) and antioxidant activity (DPPH, FRAP & Ferrous chelating) of the MeOH extract were determined, while the α-glucosidase inhibitory activity of the extract was conducted using bioautographic assay. The structure of compounds isolated were elucidated by 1D NMR spectroscopic analysis and high-resolution mass spectrometric (HRESIMS) data. The results showed that the nutritive value of the fresh Carissa edulis is 43.43 kcal/100 g, while the extract demonstrated good antioxidant activities (DPPH, IC50 = 87.98 μg/ml; FRAP, EC50 = 464.33 μg/ml & Ferrous chelating, EC50 = 294.55 μg/ml). Further study of the MeOH extract of the fruit led to the isolation of rhamnetin-3-β-D-glucopyranoside, peonidin-3-rutinoside and malvidin-3-O-β-D-(6”-acetylglucoside). These results suggest that the fruits of Carissa edulis are nutritious and possess potential antidiabetic effect which corroborated the ethnomedical uses of the fruits. \u0000Keywords: Carissa edulis; α-Glucosidase; Anthocyanins; Nutritional composition; Antioxidant properties","PeriodicalId":16803,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Pharmacy & Bioresources","volume":"16 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81783736","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The susceptibility and molecular characterization of methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus recovered from urine samples of healthy students were undertaken. Standard procedures were employed for isolation, identification, susceptibility, and polymerase chain reaction analyses. Out of 217 samples collected, 73 were confirmed Staphylococcus aureus. Most of the isolates were susceptible to ciprofloxacin and vancomycin followed by gentamicin and co-trimoxazole and least susceptible to penicillin, cefotaxime, ofloxacin and cefoxitin. Thirty-two (32) isolates were resistant to 5 antibiotics while 3 isolates were resistant to the 11 antibiotics used in this study. Sixteen phenotypically methicillin resistant isolates contained mecA gene while ten of the isolates also showed the presence of mecB gene. The characteristic Sa442 and nuc genes of Staphylococcus aureus and the presence of spa gene confirmed MRSA.

Co-processed excipients were prepared from Cyperus esculentus starch and mannitol by fusion in ratios of 1:1, 1:2 and 2:1 (CM1, CM2, and CM3 respectively) and evaluated for flow and swelling properties. The excipients were incorporated into Aspirin tablet formulations at 5 %w/w by direct compression (FM1, FM2, FM3 respectively). Similar tablets were prepared using sodium starch glycolate (FSG) and the formulations were assessed for hardness, friability, wetting time, disintegrationtime and in vitro dissolution profile. All the prepared excipients possessed excellent flow with Carr’s index between 17.31 and 20.78 and Hausner ratio between 1.21 and 1.26.
