Effect of phenolic compounds extracted from chestnut (Castanea sativa Mill) industry by-products on antibiotic resistant bactéria. In Biochemistry and Microbiology Applied Technologies Conference. Hammamet, Tunisiahttp://hdl.handle.net/10198/17070In the last years, antibiotic resistance has become a selious threat tohuman and animal health since a large number of microorganisms have developed resistance to the drugs commonly used.Several natural compounds have been gcttingincreased attention as alternatives to many drugs. Phenolic compounds are secondary metabolites which exhibit several properties, such as, antimicrobial. antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antimutagentic and cardioprotective. Thus, this study aims to investigate the antibacterial properties of the iJhenolic compounds extracted from the chestnut (Castaneasativa Mill.) industry by-products !gains! antibiotic resistant bacteria.engconference object
