Pseudomonas aeruginosa is naturally resistant to many classes of antipseudomonal antibiotics due to the species ability to easily acquire resistance.
Plant-based antibacterial agent in combination with the existing antibiotic proposes an alternative treatment regimen for the eradication of resistant bacterial infections.
The antibacterial effects of the isolated epicatechin 3-gallate compound from Euphorbia hirta in combination with cefepime were investigated in vitro against resistant P.
aeruginosa.
The fractional inhibitory concentration index of the combination was determined using checkerboard broth microdilution method.
Epicatechin 3-gallate combined with cefepime had produced synergistic effect against P.
aeruginosa (with average FIC index of 0.24).
The MIC of epicatechin 3-gallate was effectively reduced to MIC/4, MIC/8, MIC/16, and MIC/32 in the presence of cefepime.
Time-kill study of epicatechin 3-gallate combined with cefepime exhibited remarkable bactericidal activity where the eradication of P.
aeruginosa occurred within 4 h of treatment.
Scanning electron micrographs revealed apparent cell membrane damage and leakage of cytoplasmic contents from P.
aeruginosa cells which eventually led to the cell lysis after the combination treatment of epicatechin 3-gallate and cefepime.
The potential of epicatechin 3-gallate to act synergistically with cefepime against clinically resistant P.
aeruginosa strain possibly will maximize the successful outcomes when choosing empirical antibiotic treatment in hospitals or health care institutions.
