| BackgroundThe aim of this study was to determine the antibacterial activity of the juice obtained by squeezing fresh ginger roots (Zingiber officinale) against the standard strains Staphylococcus aureus(ATCC® 25923) and Escherichia coli(ATCC® 25922), as well as Acinetobacter baumanniiand Klebsiella pneumoniaeisolated from patients hospitalized in intensive care units. MethodsFor this purpose, the antibacterial effect of the fresh ginger juice was tested against antibiotics such as ampicillin, cefazolin, cefuroxime, meropenem, colistin, ofloxacin, sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim, tetracycline, and gentamicin. The antibacterial effects against the tested bacteria were determined by the disc diffusion method using 5 μL, 10 μL, 15 μL and 20 μL amounts of ginger juice impregnated on sterile discs. ResultsAs a result of the study, it was detected that the antibacterial effect increased in parallel with the increasing amounts of fresh ginger juice in all tested bacteria. ConclusionConsequently, fresh Zingiber officinalecan provide protection to a certain extent against bacterial pathogens due to its antibacterial action. |
