Background: The overgrowing resistance of the species of candida toward anti-fungus drugs has necessitated the use of compounds with antifungal features. Some plants have antimicrobial features due to their polyphenols components. This paper aims at exploring the anti-fungus effects of Zataria multiflora against candida albicans. Methods: A total of 20 g of the dried and pounded leaves of the Zataria multiflora was used and its extract was prepared in the rotary device. Various concentrations of all extracts were prepared in the 96 cell microplate. MIC and diameter of the inhibitory shield were measured by dilution method and agar disk, respectively. Results: The Zataria multiflora extract showed good antifungal effects against Candida albicans sample. Therefore, this plant extract can replace chemical drugs and be used against candida-caused infection upon completion of this research trend. Conclusions: In the present study the principles of the extract, different methods of minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), and mode of action of the extract are discussed.

“…One aspect of such problem is the incidence of multidrug resistant bacteria like MRSA in hospitals. For resolving this problem, many investigators noticed the effect of herbal extracts instead of antibiotics (4,5). Based on the previous studies, the Avishen-e-Shirazi extract can inhibit the growth of enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (11), Salmonella sp and Shigella sp (12), S. aureus (13), Klebsiella (14), Enterococcus (15), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (16), and Acinetobacter baumannii, Alcaligenes, Chryseobacterium meningosepticum in the NFB (Non Fermentative Gram Negative Bacteria ) group.(13).…”

Background:One of the most common nasocomial bacteria is methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). Today, herbal extracts like Zataria multiflora from the Lamiaceae family are increasingly used. Objectives: In this study, the antibacterial effect of Z. multiflora on 75 strains of was evaluated. Materials and Methods:The strains of Staphylococcus aureus were examined for isolation of strains. 75 out of 232 strains were diagnosed as by oxacillin 6µg /mL screening method. The extracts of Z. multiflora were prepared from dried leaves using a maceration method. The antibacterial activity of the extract with initial concentration of 200 µg /mL was determined by the micro broth dilution method. Results:The obtained results showed that the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) varied from 2 to 16µg /mL for strains. It inhibited the growth of S. epidermidis, S. saprophyticus and methicillin sensitive S. aureus (MSSA) by about 8-16 µg/mL. The minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) of the extract that could destroy 62.2% strains and the other examined bacteria was 512 µg /mL or more. Conclusions: In conclusion, it seems that Z. multiflora extracts could inhibit the growth of all of the mentioned bacteria. We noticed that the bactericidal effect of Z. multiflora extracts was less than its bacteriostatic effects.
