Study about the Relationship of Some Aerobic Anaerobic Bacteria of Acne and its Resistance to Some of Plant Extracts

Yasameen Hasan. Ali


Abstract: Acne vulgar is a common chronic skin disease involving blockage and/ or inflammation of pilosebaceous unit (hair follicle) and their accompanying sebaceous glands). Acne develops as results of an interplay of the following four factors one of them the presence and activity of commensal bacteria Propionibacterium acnes. Methods ( 438) samples were collected from ( 312) infected patients with acnes from both sexes ( 132 males) and ( 180 female) for the period from January 2015 to February 2016 where the comedone samples were ( 116) and pustules samples (322) samples. Samples were distributed in different agricultural medium where identified their depending upon appearance characteristics and biochemistry tests. (12) plant extracts were used, testing microbe sensitivity of plant extracts and all the results were analyzed by using variance analysis ( ANOVA). Moral valued at level (P < 0.05). ResultsClinical results showed that repetition of infections at females was more than the male. Domination of (P. acnes) bacteria in comedone while domination of ( S. epidermidis) bacteria in pustules. it was noticed that the extract of Querces Robur L. was the most effective in killing all micro-organism under consideration comparing with extracts of used plants. Conclusion The study revealed that Querces Robur L. has fatal effectiveness at rate of ( 100 %) to all positive and negative isolates to gram stain comparing with other plant extracts. We recommend using new medical herbs not used before for the treatment of acne which must have fatal effect upon bacteria (Antibacterial Activity).
