Purpose: has become one of the most common causes of septicemia. Meanwhile, has acquired resistance to many antibiotics. Among these, methicillin-resistant (MRSE) were frequently isolated. Similar to methicillin resistant (MRSA), they also exhibited multi-resistance, which presented a danger to human health. as traditional Chinese medicine had strong antibacterial activity against MRSE. However, the mechanism of against MRSE is not clear.
Methods: Here, the morphology of cell wall and cell membrane, production of β-lactamase and PBP2, energy metabolism, antioxidant system were systematically studied.
Results: The data showed that damaged the cell wall and membrane. In addition, β-lactamase, energy metabolism and antioxidant system were involved in mechanisms of against MRSE.
Conclusion: These observations provided new understanding of against MRSE to control MRSE infections.
