Antimicrobial Activity of Copaifera Spp. Against Bacteria Isolated From Milk of Cows With Mastitis

Abstract: The antimicrobial activities of the oleoresin (OR) and the essential oil (EO) of Copaifera spp. were checked against microorganisms isolated from milk samples of cows diagnosed with grade III subclinical mastitis. The OR had good antimicrobial activity (MIC ≤ 100 µg/mL) against samples of coagulase-positive Staphylococcus, coagulase-negative Staphylococcus, Streptococcus of groups C, F, and G, and Corynebacterium spp. Meanwhile, the EO had good antimicrobial activity (MIC≤100 µg/mL) against coagulase-negative … Show more

“…The OR exhibited significant antimicrobial activity (minimum inhibitory concentrations [MIC] ≤100 μg/mL) against samples of Staphylococcus coagulase-positive, Staphylococcus coagulase-negative, and Streptococcus but were inactive and weak to inactive, respectively, against E. coli . This demonstrates that this raw plant material is promising for the development of phytotherapeutic drugs against bovine mastitis [ 35 ].…”

“…Tal fato requer atenção, uma vez que as bactérias vêm adquirindo cada vez mais resistência às drogas introduzidas na medicina humana e veterinária de modo usual, o que exige medidas urgentes no combate ao surgimento de novas cepas bacterianas multirresistentes, inclusive aos medicamentos antimicrobianos recentemente comercializados, levando à consequências importantes, com efeitos diretos na problemática das infecções hospitalares (6) . Além disso, torna-se necessário maiores investimentos das indústrias farmacêuticas em pesquisas sobre o desenvolvimento de drogas utilizando princípios ativos naturais, em particular metabólitos de plantas medicinais, recentemente, demonstrado na literatura uma boa atividade frente a cepas de Staphylococcus isolados de leite de vacas com mastitite (31) .…”

“…The choice of Copaifera spp. (Copaíba) is due to its antimicrobial action in previous studies that used plants of the same genus (Faria et al, 2017;Vieira et al, 2018 Bacterial strains were plated on Sodium Thioglycolate (BBL) broth supplemented with Hemina + Vitamin K (5μg / ml) (LABORCLIN, Brazil). The plates containing bacterial strains were incubated overnight at 37°C and subsequently stored at 4°C.…”
