Abstract
|
|
|
Objective: This experimental study was performed to investigate the effect of Jinpi-san on Staphylococcus aureus(S. aureus) and Staphylococcus epidermidis(S. epidermidis) that induce keratitis.
Methods: Minimal inhibitory concentration(MIC) was measured by dropping to 50 ul according to density Jinpi-san(100%, 10%, 1%, 0.1 %). Anti-bacterial potency was measured by the size of inhibition zone with change of volume.
Results: 1. MIC on S. aureus in Jinpi-san was 40 ul undiluted solution. 2. MIC on S. epidermidis in Jinpi-san was 20ul undiluted solution.
Conclusions: These results indicate that Jinpi-san can be used to cure S. aureus, S. epidermidis that induce eye disease(keratitis). If further study is performed, the use of eye drops will be valuable and beneficial in the clinical medicines.
