Olive leaf extract showed a strong antimicrobial effect against both MRSA and MSSA strains, suggesting its therapeutic promise.
The minimum bactericidal concentration for MRSA was found to be as low as 1.56%, showcasing the extract's potency.
Testing involved MSSA and MRSA clinical isolates from patients with skin infections, adhering to Clinical Laboratory Standards guidelines.
Over 90% of MSSA strains were resistant to fewer antibiotics, while many MRSA strains showed extensive resistance, highlighting treatment challenges.
