The anti- Staphylococcus aureus activity of the phenanthrene fraction from fibrous roots of Bletilla striata
BMC Complementary and Alternative Medicine(2016)
Abstract
Bletillae Rhizoma, the tuber of Bletilla striata, has been used in Chinese traditional medicine to treat infectious diseases. Chemical studies indicated that phenanthrene was one of the most important components of the herb, with a broad spectrum of antibiotic activity against Gram-positive bacteria. The objective of this study was to further characterize the antibacterial activity of the phenanthrene fraction from the fibrous root of the pseudobulb of B. striata.
