TL;DR: Tais resultados sugerem que metabolitos secundarios existentes no vegetal poderao ser utilizados para constituicao de novas drogas em associacao com aminoglicosideos.

TL;DR: In this article, α-pinene and limonene were evaluated as EP inhibitors against a strain of Staphylococcus aureus expressing NorA protein, which carried genes encoding efflux proteins associated with antibiotic resistance to norfloxacin, was assessed through the broth microdilution method.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated the inhibitory effect of quercetin on S. aureus efflux pumps using the broth microdilution method, as well as the efflux pump inhibition assay through the method of reducing the antibiotic minimum inhibitory concentration.

TL;DR: These natural products can be an interesting alternative not only to combat infectious diseases caused by bacteria or fungi, but also to combat enhanced resistance of microorganisms to antibiotic and antifungal drugs.

TL;DR: Cholecalciferol, when combined with aminoglycosides, was more effective against P. aeruginosa, reducing the concentration of amikacin and gentamicin necessary to inhibit bacterial growth and the effect was greater with higher subinhibitory concentration of sterol.
