| Bacterial pathogens | Ethyl acetate crude extract of PTS8 | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| MIC (μg/mL) | MBC (μg/mL) | MIC index | |
| MRSA (ATCC 43300) | 3.12 ± 0.05* | 50 ± 0.01* | 16 |
| MRSA (ATCC 700699) | 1.56 ± 0.05** | 12.5 ± 0.04* | 7 |
| S.aureus (ATCC 25923) | 3.12 ± 0.03* | 50 ± 0.2** | 16 |
| S.aureus (MTCC 3160) | 0.78 ± 0.25* | 12.5 ± 0.05 | 16 |
| VRE (ATCC 56299) | 6.25 ± 0.25** | 25 ± 0.01** | 4 |
| E.faecalis | 3.12 ± 0.05* | 25 ± 0.5* | 8 |
MIC index ≤4 is bactericidal and >4 is bacteriostatic, “*” indicates significant differences (*p < 0.05; **p < 0.01) between the treated and the control samples.
