Castanea sativa Mill (ENC®), containing tannins against 33 Chlamydia strains, was compared to SMAP-29 with inhibitory effect against C. trachomatis and C. pneumoniae. The ENC® activity against Chlamydia spp. was evaluated determining the lowest concentration to achieve more than half reduction of intact chlamydial inclusions versus controls. ENC® reduced all Chlamydia strains tested at 1 µg/mL, while SMAP-29 induced reductions of C. trachomatis and C. pneumoniae infectivity at 10 µg/mL. A great reduction of C. trachomatis, C. pneumoniae, and C. abortus infectivity was achieved with a 10 µg/mL ENC® concentration, whereas their infectivity was almost inhibited at 100 µg/mL ENC® concentration.
富含针对33种衣原体菌株的单宁酸的欧洲栗(ENC®),与对沙眼衣原体和肺炎衣原体有抑制作用的SMAP-29进行了比较。通过确定相对于对照使完整衣原体包涵体减少超过一半的最低浓度,来评估ENC®对衣原体属的活性。ENC®在1微克/毫升时可减少所有测试的衣原体菌株,而SMAP-29在10微克/毫升时可降低沙眼衣原体和肺炎衣原体的感染性。在10微克/毫升的ENC®浓度下,沙眼衣原体、肺炎衣原体和流产衣原体的感染性大幅降低,而在100微克/毫升的ENC®浓度下,它们的感染性几乎被抑制。
