Abstract

Multidrug-resistant (MDR) Gram-negative bacteria remain a global public health issue due to the barrier imposed by their outer membrane and their propensity to form biofilms. It is becoming imperative to develop new antibacterial strategies. In this context, this study aims to evaluate the antibacterial efficacy of essential oil (OEO), alone and in combination with antibiotics, as well as its antibiofilm action against multidrug-resistant Gram-negative strains. OEO components were identified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), and antibacterial activity was assessed using the agar diffusion test and the microdilution method. Interactions between OEO and antibiotics were examined using the checkerboard method, while antibiofilm activity was analyzed using the crystal violet assay. Chemical analysis revealed that carvacrol was the major compound in OEO (61.51%). This essential oil demonstrated activity against all the tested strains, with inhibition zone diameters (IZDs) reaching 32.3 ± 1.5 mm. The combination of OEO with different antibiotics produced synergistic and additive effects, leading to a reduction of up to 98.44% in minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs). In addition, this essential oil demonstrated an ability to inhibit and even eradicate biofilm formation. These results suggest that OEO could be exploited in the development of new molecules, combining its metabolites with antibiotics.

摘要

由于其外膜造成的屏障以及形成生物膜的倾向,多重耐药(MDR)革兰氏阴性菌仍然是一个全球公共卫生问题。开发新的抗菌策略变得势在必行。在此背景下,本研究旨在评估精油(OEO)单独以及与抗生素联合使用时的抗菌效果,及其对多重耐药革兰氏阴性菌株的抗生物膜作用。通过气相色谱 - 质谱联用(GC - MS)鉴定OEO的成分,并使用琼脂扩散试验和微量稀释法评估抗菌活性。使用棋盘法检测OEO与抗生素之间的相互作用,同时使用结晶紫测定法分析抗生物膜活性。化学分析表明,香芹酚是OEO中的主要成分(61.51%)。这种精油对所有测试菌株均表现出活性,抑菌圈直径(IZD)达到32.3±1.5毫米。OEO与不同抗生素的组合产生了协同和相加作用,导致最低抑菌浓度(MIC)降低高达98.44%。此外,这种精油表现出抑制甚至消除生物膜形成的能力。这些结果表明,OEO可用于开发新分子,将其代谢产物与抗生素结合使用。
