description | Background & Objective: Common antibiotics may be useless against multiple pathogens
because of the multidrug resistance. Therefore, new ways of nanotechnology and
effective herbal combination can be the solution for this problem. The
objective of this study is to investigate the antimicrobial effect of Allicin,
silver nano particles and their combination against skin infection due to Pseudomonas
aeruginosa in animal model.Materials & Methods:
In this experimental
study, Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) and Minimum Bactericidal
Concentration (MBC) of Allicin, silver nano particles, and their combination
were determined by macro dilution susceptibility test. Skin infection was
produced in the shoulder region of 12 mice using Pseudomonas aeruginosa and the
effect of ointment of Allicin, silver nano particles, and their combination
were evaluated. Results: The results showed that MIC and MBC of Allicin
for pseudomonas aeruginosa were 2.38 and 4.77 mg/ml, respectively. MIC and MBC
of silver nano particle for Pseudomonas aeruginosa were 3.12 and 6.25 ppm,
respectively. MIC and MBC of combination of Allicin and silver nano particles
on Pseudomonas aeruginosa were 0.59 mg/ml and 1.5 ppm, 1.19 mg/ml and 3.12 ppm,
respectively. Anti-microbial effect of Allicin, silver nano particles and the
synergistic activity of their combination against skin infections due to
Pseudomonas aeruginosa was observed in animal model.Conclusion: The results showed that Allicin in combination
with silver nano particles have synergistic effect against skin infection due
to Pseudomonas aeruginosa. |
