Antimicrobial and Antibiofilm Activity of Secondary Metabolites of Lichens Against Methicillin-Resistant Strains From Cystic Fibrosis Patients by musashiyazuke69 is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The study investigates the antimicrobial and antibiofilm activities of three secondary metabolites from lichens—usnic acid, atranorin, and fumarprotocetraric acid—against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strains isolated from cystic fibrosis patients. Usnic acid demonstrated the highest antibacterial activity, while atranorin was more effective in preventing bacterial adhesion and biofilm formation. The findings suggest that these lichen metabolites could serve as potential lead compounds
