Popis: | New antimicrobial materials have drawn research and development attention due to antimicrobial resistance. Antimicrobial resistance is expected to pose a significant challenge to life in the future. This review comprehensively elucidates the potential of Myrmecodia spp. as an antibacterial agent by systematically selecting and reviewing the majority of relevant studies published in the past 10 years and retrieved from Scopus, PubMed, Web of Science, and related books. Myrmecodia spp. is a non-parasitic plant that grows as an epiphyte. These essential nutrients for the body, including flavonoids, alkaloids, polyphenols, tannins, and saponins, are found within plants. Myrmecodia spp.’s compound functions as an antibacterial agent. This review synthesizes information from multiple sources detailing Myrmecodia spp.’s antibacterial capacity through various testing methods. |
