The antimicrobial activity of benzydamine (BD), a non-steroid anti-inflammatory agent, was studied using different techniques against 38 strains belonging to 12 microbial species comprising bacteria, yeasts and a fungus. The minimum inhibitory concentrations, minimum lethal concentrations, per cent survivors after 30-minute exposure to BD (0.1%), growth curves of 7 selected organisms in subinhibitory BD concentrations and killing times for clinical isolates at different BD levels (0.05-0.15%) were determined. The data obtained throughout this study show that BD is a general antimicrobial agent with a rapid biocidal activity against a variety of organisms at concentrations less than those advocated for treatment of inflammatory conditions.
研究了非甾体抗炎药苄达明(BD)对12种微生物(包括细菌、酵母和一种真菌)的38个菌株的抗菌活性,采用了不同技术。测定了最低抑菌浓度、最低致死浓度、暴露于BD(0.1%)30分钟后的存活百分比、7种选定微生物在亚抑菌BD浓度下的生长曲线以及不同BD水平(0.05 - 0.15%)下临床分离株的杀灭时间。整个研究获得的数据表明,BD是一种通用抗菌剂,在低于治疗炎症所推荐的浓度下,对多种生物体具有快速杀菌活性。
