Antibacterial Ingredients Extracted from Persian Onion

Antibacterial ingredients extracted from Persian onion can increase the efficacy of existing antimicrobial agents.

Recently, a new study shows that a green onion can help fight antibiotic resistance in some TB cases. Researchers believe that the antibacterial components extracted from Persian onion can increase the efficacy of the existing antimicrobial agents.

The research team tested four different molecules of the Persian onion. The researchers found that the bacteria in the multidrug-resistant tuberculosis were significantly reduced and significantly decreased, and the most promising candidates could inhibit the growth of the isolated tuberculosis cells by more than 99.9%.

The compounds extracted from the Persian onion are two sulfides, one of which has an antimicrobial activity and can inhibit the growth of Mycobacterium tuberculosis at the concentration of 17 M (4 mg L 1), and other analogues (the concentration range 32~138 M [8~ 32 mg L 1) can inhibit the Escherichia coli. Bacteria and multidrug can resist Staphylococcus aureus. These compounds also have certain inhibitory effects on Klebsiella pneumonia and Proteus.

The team believes that these compounds can be used with existing antibacterial agents to fight TB resistant strains.

The researchers said they hoped that the molecules tested in the laboratory could be combined with the existing antibiotics to form new anti TB drugs and giant knotweed.

List of Sodium Hyaluronate Applications

Image
 Sodium hyaluronate gel is a kind of glycosaminoglycan, which is widely used in biomedicine, biomaterials, functional foods, and cosmetics.   Sodium hyaluronate has been discovered for nearly 80 years. As early as 1934, Meyer and Palmer isolated a polysaccharide containing uronic acid and hexosamine from the hyaloid body. In a physiological neutral environment, hyaluronic acid is a polyanion. In 1985, Balazs and others suggested that the term hyaluronan be used to unify the name of the substance on the grounds that the substance is essentially a carbohydrate and should be named according to the naming rules of glycosaminoglycan. "Hyaluronan" has been widely used to cover any state of hyaluronic acid and its salt (hyaluronate), usually translated as "hyaluronic acid", abbreviated as HA. At present, HA products are usually referred to as "Sodium Hyaluronate Injection", and the HA product is called sodium hyaluronate gel. As early as the late 1970s, the Uni...

Advancing Eye Surgery with Hyaluronic Acid

Image
The eyes are extremely complex objects within the human body, and therefore eye surgeries are very difficult to perform; hyaluronic acid helps to make the process a lot easier. Your eyes require a very specific set of circumstances to operate at optimal capacity. For example, they need to be lubricated all the time to be able to turn around quickly and efficiently. They also need to be filled with a liquid to maintain an optimal internal environment. Hyaluronic acid is responsible for a lot of this - without hyaluronic acid, everything starts to break down. Hyaluronic acid is the main lubricant and a very important component of the jelly-like substance within the eye. Due to its natural uses in maintaining proper eye functionality, HA is being used to improve eye surgery outcomes. The eyes contain even more hyaluronic acid than your joints, which signifies that the compound has a heavy role to play in their normal functioning. Experts have researched the effects of using a variety...
