Anti-Bacterial And Anti-Viral Effects Of Fengreqing Oral Liquid In Vitro And In Vivo

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the anti-bacterial and anti-viral effects of Fengreqing oral liquid (FRQ) in vitro and in vivo.METHODS: The minimum inhibitory concentrations of Fengreqing Oral Liquid against six gram-positive bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus mutans, Peptostreptococcus anaerobius, Hemolytic streptococcus, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Klebsiella pneumoniae), seven gram-negative bacteria (Escherichia coli, Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans, Porphyromonas gingivalis, Haemophilus influenzae, Helicobacter pylori, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Gardnerella vaginalis) and Candida albicans were detected by the paper disc diffusion method. The inhibition rate of A/PuertoRico/8/34(H1N1) (PR8) influenza virus in different concentrations of Fengreqing oral solution was detected by chicken embryo method. CCK8 method was used to detect the half-cell infection of RSV, VSV and CVB3. The effect of FRQ on the survival curve of mice was detected by using co-infection model of Streptococcus pneumoniae and influenza virus.RESULTS: In vitro, FRQ can inhibit Actinobacillus actinomycetemcomitans, Helicobacter pylori, Gardnerella vaginalis, Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus mutans and Streptococcus pneumoniae and has an antiviral effect on the envelope virus H1N1. In vivo, Fengreqing oral solution had therapeutic effect on influenza-Streptococcus pneumoniae co-infection in mice, significantly improving the survival rate of mice. The medium dose and low dose FRQ significantly prolonged the survival time of mice.CONCLUSION: FRQ has good anti-bacterial and anti-viral effects in vivo and in vitro. (C) 2021 JTCM.
