Abstract:Diabetics are susceptible to severe trophic problems and wounds, which are frequently referred to as “unhealable wounds”. Untreated diabetic wounds provide an ideal habitat for the growth of bacteria, which can eventually develop resistance to standard treatments and need amputation. This study aimed to assess the in vitro antibacterial activity of ethanolic and aqueous extracts of Eriosema robustum leaves on the same bacterium, as well as the resistance profile of bacteria isolated from diabetic wounds to con… Show more
