Interaction of some plant extracts with some antibiotics against Salmonella from chickens

Multidrug-resistant bacterial strains are becoming a serious problem. Therefore, the application of natural antimicrobial agents from plant extracts combined with antibiotics to overcome this problem is of major importance. The antimicrobial activity of five plants (Rosemary, Marjoram, Mint, Dill and Neem) methanol extract prepared by ultrasonicassisted (UAE) combined with antibiotics (amoxicillin, doxycycline, gentamicin and difloxacin) against 41 Salmonella poultry isolates was tested using in vitro methods. The interactions between plant extracts and antibiotics are known to be either additive or synergistic or antagonistic. The mean zones of inhibition (mm) and the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of plant extracts and of antibiotics and combination between them was determined. The total phenolic content (TPC) and the antioxidant activity (DPPH•) of plant extracts was evaluated. Methanol extracts had high total phenolic compounds which used as a source of natural antioxidants. The results revealed that synergistic effects appear in rosemary with amoxicillin and gentamicin and difloxacin, dill with doxycycline and gentamicin, also neem with amoxicillin and doxycycline. Synergistic activity against Gram-negative bacteria demonstrated that extracts could be a source of bioactive substances with a broad spectrum of antibacterial activity especially when combined with antibiotics. In addition, extracts are potential safe sources of bioactive compounds, antioxidants, antibacterial agents which might be applied in different foods and pharmaceutical products. | Interaction of some plant extracts with some antibiotics against Salmonella from chickens
