Abstract(s)
The indiscriminate use of antibiotics and chemotherapeutic agents and the genetic ability of bacteria to transmit and acquire resistance resulted in the
development of resistant species. In the last few years, several studies have been conducted in different countries to demonstrate the efficacy of natural products, not
only studying their direct antimicrobial activity but also their capacity as resistance-modifying agents. The main objective of the present work was to evaluate the
capacity of five wild mushroom extracts to potentiate the action of standard antibiotics, through synergisms that allow a decrease in their therapeutic doses and
ultimately contribute to the reduction of resistances.
