The Structural Changes in the Membranes of <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> Caused by Hydrolysable Tannins Witness Their Antibacterial Activity

Polyphenols, including tannins, are phytochemicals with pronounced antimicrobial properties. We studied the activity of two hydrolysable tannins, (i) gallotannin—1,2,3,4,5-penta-O-galloyl-β-D-glucose (PGG) and (ii) ellagitannin—1,2-di-O-galloyl-4,6-valoneoyl-β-D-glucose (dGVG), applied alone and in...
