title: Lignified materials as potential medicinal resources. II. Prevention of pathogenic bacterial infections in mice.
abstract: Antibacterial activity was demonstrated when ddY mice were intraperitoneally infected with E. coli or P. aeruginosa two days after a single ip-injection of a hot-water or alkaline extract obtained from lignified materials, such as chips of slash pine, Douglas fir, tallow wood, and two shelf fungi. Lignified material is a promising medicinal resource for the prevention and/or treatment of pathogenic microbial infection.
