نبذة مختصرة
Several compounds isolated from the plant Carpobrotus edulis were evaluated for their activity against multidrug-resistant (MDR) bacteria and their efflux pump systems. Amongst the compounds isolated, six compounds were tested, namely uvaol, β-amyrin, oleanolic acid, catechin, epicatechin and monogalactosyldiacylglycerol. Oleanolic acid presented high antibacterial activity against a large number of bacterial strains. The triterpene uvaol was the most active compound for modulation of efflux activity by MDR Gram-positive strains.
