Direct and indirect antimicrobial effects of α-mangostin on pathogenic microorganisms
Objective: To test direct and indirect antimicrobial properties of α-mangostin towards a number of bacteria and fungi. Methods: The experiment was carried out using broth microdilution and checkerboards methods. Activity of α-mangostin paired with an antibiotic was studied by calculating its fracti...

Activity of α-mangostin paired with an antibiotic was studied by calculating its fractional inhibitory concentration (FIC).
