claimEthanol extract from horse mint aerial parts is used to alleviate irritation of the throat, mouth, and sore throat, acting against Mycobacterium tuberculosis via amphipathicity.
claimAloe extract facilitates wound healing, mitigates inflammation, and addresses burn-related skin injuries by rebuilding compromised skin, targeting Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Enterococcus casseliflavus through amphipathicity.
claimMethanol extracts from cocoa seeds, bush butter tree, and okra leaves suppress multidrug-resistant (MDR) Klebsiella pneumoniae, while sweet potato leaf extract targets the same bacteria through amphipathicity.
claimWinter squash bean extract is used in traditional therapy for renal and gastrointestinal ailments and addresses multidrug-resistant (MDR) Enterobacter and Klebsiella pneumoniae via amphipathicity.
claimAmphipathicity is defined as the coexistence of hydrophobic and hydrophilic residues, with both processes potentially occurring concurrently.
claimSweet cherry fruit extract exhibits antibacterial action against multidrug-resistant (MDR) organisms Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa due to its amphipathic characteristics.
claimAqueous extract from ginger roots is used for anti-cancer, vomiting, and nausea treatment, acting against Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa through amphipathicity, which is the existence of both hydrophobic and hydrophilic residues.
claimMaidenhair fern and Chirayita extracts combat infections via amphipathicity.
claimThe amphipathic characteristics of coastal golden leaf and bark contribute to its antibacterial efficacy against multidrug-resistant (MDR) Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Enterobacter species, and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA).
