Propolis samples from West North region of Iran were studied for their antibacterial (against Staphylococcus aureus) and antifungal (against Candida albicans) activities. In this article, yield of extracts and their pH values were measured. Antibacterial and antifungal activities of Ethanol-Extracted Propolis (EEP) were investigated by Petri dish bioassay method. Dilutions of EPP in agar with serial concentrations ranging from 0/04 to 10% (W/V) were prepared and antimicrobial activities were determined as Minimal Inhibitory Concentrations (MIC). All samples were active against the fungal and bacterial test strains. MIC values for different propolis samples against Staphylococcus aureus were, respectively 4, 3 and 1.5% (W/V) and against Candida albicans were, respectively 2, 4 and 3% (W/V).
对来自伊朗西北部地区的蜂胶样本进行了抗菌（针对金黄色葡萄球菌）和抗真菌（针对白色念珠菌）活性研究。在本文中，测定了提取物的产量及其pH值。采用平板生物测定法研究了乙醇提取蜂胶（EEP）的抗菌和抗真菌活性。制备了琼脂中EEP的系列稀释液，浓度范围为0.04%至10%（W/V），并将抗菌活性测定为最低抑菌浓度（MIC）。所有样本对真菌和细菌测试菌株均有活性。不同蜂胶样本对金黄色葡萄球菌的MIC值分别为4%、3%和1.5%（W/V），对白色念珠菌的MIC值分别为2%、4%和3%（W/V）。
