Abstract
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) was initially limited to hospital
and healthcare facilities but has gradually become a growing problem in healthy children and
adult. Pterostilbene belongs to the phenylpropanoid phytoalexin which is involved in plant
response to various pathogen and herbivores attack. The aim of this study was to evaluate the
anti-MRSA action of pterostilbene in combination with selected antibiotics such as
vancomycin, linezolid and oxacillin against MRSA ATCC 33591. The minimum inhibitory
concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) of individual
antimicrobial agents were determined using microbroth dilution technique whereas the
microdilution checkerboard (MDC) assay was employed to verify the type of interaction of the
combined agents from the fractional inhibitory concentration (FIC) index values. Time- kill
assay (TKA) analysis and post-antibiotic effect (PAE) time were determined only on the
combination which showed synergistic interaction. Cell morphology and ultrastructural
changes of the treated and untreated strains were also observed. The MIC and MBC of
pterostilbene against ATCC 33591 were 31.25μg/ml and 62.50μg/ml, respectively. This
indicated that pterostilbene was bacteriostatic against ATCC 33591. MDC results showed that
pterostilbene-oxacillin combination exhibited lowest FIC value (0.56) for ATCC 33591 which
implies partial synergistic interaction. On the other hand, combination of pterostilbene and
vancomycin generated an additive effect (FIC 1.00) whereas pterostilbene-linezolid
combination displayed indifference effects with FIC of 1.25 against MRSA ATCC 33591.
Despite the partial synergism, TKA proved an additive effect for the combination of
pterostilbene and oxacillin against ATCC 33591 with concentration-dependent bactericidal
action within 24 hour. After one hour exposure at 10X-MIC, prolonged PAE time of 2.6 ±
1.48 hour against ATCC 33591 was demonstrated by pterostilbene-oxacillin combination
treatment compared to pterostilbene (2.02 ± 0.36 hour) and oxacillin (0.53 ± 0.28 hour) alone.
Scanning and transmission electron microscopic observations revealed that pterostilbene
targeted the cell wall which is the same site of action as oxacillin hence additive effects by the
combination treatment. In conclusion, pterostilbene in combination with oxacillin showed
partial synergism with bactericidal and persistent antimicrobial effect against MRSA ATCC
33591. Therefore, pterostilbene has the potential to be developed as an alternative
phytotherapeutic agent against MRSA infections.

known as stilbene [14]. Stilbene was
secondary metabolites of the plants that
formed from flavonoid biosynthesis pathway
and belongs to the family of phenylpropanoid
[15]. Pterostilbene found in sandalwood
Pterocarpus santalinus by [16], hardwood of
Pterocarpus marsupium by [17], leaves of
Vitis vinifera by [18] and also found in some
species of Vaccinium
berries [19].
Pterostilbene also is an analog of resveratrol
found in grapes and blueberries [20]. This
component is biologically classified as a
phytoalexin. Antimicrobial phytoalexin is a
plants defense system which is involved in
plant response to various pathogen and
herbivores attack [15].
In addition, antibiotics used in this study
were vancomycin, oxacillin and linezolid.
Vancomycin and oxacillin known as agents
that target cell wall while lonezolid targeting
protein synthesis [21,22,23]. Evaluation on
the morphology and ultrastructure of cells
after treatment studies using electron
microscopy.
Transmission
electron
microscope (TEM) is typically used by
microbiologists to study on intracellular or
cell wall structure [24,25,26,27]. Scanning
electron microscope (SEM) was used to study
the surface of the cell and its features
[28,29,30,31].

1. Introduction
Staphylococcus aureus is a normal
microflora that can be found in the skin and
nose of healthy people. However, these
bacteria will become opportunistic pathogens
when these bacteria enter the human body
through small surgical wound or trauma on
someone who has weakened immune system
causing skin and soft tissue infections [1].
Infections caused by S. aureus have been
treated with various antibiotics such as
penicillin, macrolides and aminoglycosides.
However, these bacteria have managed to
grow and resistant against various type of
antibiotic [2]. The emergence of MRSA not
only give special attention because of
resistance against methicillin but also due to
resistant against almost all kinds of existing
antibiotics even though there are new
antibacterial drugs on the market [3,4]. These
bacteria caused many infections in
communities such as endemic and epidemic
nosocomial infections [5].
Therefore, to find ways and strategies to
prevent or delay the development of
resistance of MRSA, various studies have
been conducted to find an alternative
treatment to overcome this phenomenon from
becoming more serious. The step is to use a
combination of antimicrobial therapy that
consists of existing antibiotics and plant
extracts [6]. Natural products and their
derivatives have been identified over the years
as a source of therapeutic agent [7,8]. Natural
products derived from plants, animals and
minerals has been the basis for the treatment
of humans since long ago [9,10,11]. Natural
product is an organic or chemical compounds
produced by living organisms in nature that
usually have a pharmacological or biological
activity that are valuable and can be used in
the invention and design of drugs [12].
Phytochemicals
are
bioactive
compounds derived from plants and the term
is often used to describe a large number of
secondary metabolites [13]. Pterostilbene is a
component that belongs to a phenolic group

2. Results and Discussion
2.1 Determination of MIC and MBC value.
MIC and MBC of pterostilbene for
MRSA ATCC 33591 was 31.25 µg / ml and
62.50 µg / ml (Table 1). The MBC is two-fold
higher than the MIC for both strains.
Therefore, this indicated that pterostilbene has
potential as an antimicrobial agent that
produce bacteriostatic effects. MIC and MBC
values of oxacillin against ATCC 33591 was
same, each value 62.50 µg/ ml (Table 2).
Therefore, oxacillin exhibit antimicrobial
bactericidal agent. The MIC and MBC of
vancomycin against ATCC 33591 was same,
0.98μg / ml (Table 3). Therefore, this suggests
that vancomycin exhibits bactericidal activity

The 1st Conference Technology on Biosciences and Social Sciences 2016
against ATCC 33591. MIC values of linezolid
against MRSA ATCC 33591 was 1.56 μg / ml
(Table 4). MBC values for linezolid shows
that linezolid displayed bacteriostatic activity
against MRSA strain which is four times
higher than the MIC of ATCC 33591.
This study showed that pterostilbene
exhibit stronger antibacterial properties than
oxacillin on MRSA ATCC 33591.
Pterostilbene is a phytoalexin which belongs
to the phenylpropanoid family that involved
in plant response to various pathogens and
herbivores attack [15]. Comparison with
antibiotics that are used in this study as
current therapy against MRSA infection,
suggesting that the antimicrobial activity of
pterostilbene is lower than linezolid and
vancomycin on ATCC 33591. It is supported
by [32] which states that phytochemicals
produce lower activity compared to standard
antibiotics.
Pterostilbene may be able to reduce the
problem of microbial resistance that was
supported
by
[33]
reported
that
phytochemicals capable of exhibiting
significant potential for changing the
resistivity of an antibiotic. Although the
antimicrobial effectiveness of pterostilbene
stronger than oxacillin but pterostilbene
showed bacteriostatic effect same like
linezolid with MBC value exceeds the MIC.
This corresponds to [34] reported that
stilbenoid compound which belongs to the
phenylpropanoid
family
also
exhibit
bacteriostatic action against MRSA strains.
Generally, phytochemicals or secondary plant
metabolites can prevent and slow the growth
of bacteria compared than kill the pathogens
[35]. In this study, oxacillin and vancomycin
exhibits bactericidal action against ATCC
33591 with the same value of MIC and MBC
and supported by [36].

values is greater than 0.5 but less than 1
which is 0.56. Pterostilbene was capable of
lowering the MIC of oxacillin doubled from
62.50 μg / ml to 31.25 μg / ml against ATCC
33591. Pterostilbene in combination with
vancomycin exhibit additives activity (FIC
1.00) against ATCC 33591. This suggests that
pterostilbene can also act at the same site of
action with vancomycin. Linezolid showed
indifference activity against ATCC 33591 in
the FIC of 1.25. This shows that the combined
action of pterostilbene-linezolid is the same as
action of pterostilbene or linezolid singly.
Therefore, pterostilbene could potentially
targeting different cell wall of oxacillin
actions but more specifically to the site of
action of vancomycin. The result of the
combination between pterostilbene and three
kinds of antibiotics against ATCC 33591 was
shown in Tables 5.

2.3 Result of Time-Kill Assay (TKA)
Result of TKA for ATCC 33591,
showed that growth curve of pterostilbene
singly about the same as growth curve for
positive control, which showed an increase in
the number of bacterial colonies. Pterostilbene
showed no effect either bacteriostatic or
bactericidal. However, the impressive results
produced when pterostilbene combined with
oxacillin. This is because, although
pterostilbene singly not produce a decrease in
the number of bacterial colonies but when
combined, this combination resulting in a
decrease of bacterial colonies. Results of
pterostilbene-oxacillin
combination
for
0.5XKS produce bacteriostatic effect (mean
inhibition
0.5 1 ≤ 4 and antagonistic as FIC
index of more than 4.0 [68].

3.7 Determination of Fractional Inhibitory
Concentration (FIC)
Combination effect of pterostilbene and
three types of antibiotics were assessed using
a checkerboard method to obtain fractional
inhibitory concentration index value (FIC) is
either synergistic, additive, indifference and
antagonistic. Both pterostilbene and selected
antibiotics were prepared in five different
concentrations of 1XMIC, 1 / 2XMIC, 1 /
4XMIC, 1 / 8XMIC, 1 / 16XMIC. Then,
along the x-axis in 96-well microtiter plates,
added 5 μl solution of pterostilbene into each
well from 1 / 16XMIC, 1 / 8XMIC, 1 /
4XMIC, 1 / 2XMIC and 1XMIC. For the yaxis, 5 μl solution of antibiotics was added to
each well in the same order as pterostilbene
[34]. However, 40 μl of MHB were prepared
in each well before pterostilbene and
antibiotic solution is inserted into each well.
Then, 50 μl of bacterial inoculum was added
to each well and the final volume of each well
was 100 μl. Positive control contain MHB and
bacteria inoculum while negative control
consist of MHB and distilled water or
antimicrobial agents. This test is carried out in
triplicate.
After that, the plates were incubated at
37 ° C for 24 hours. Turbidity or the presence
of pellets in the bottom of the well indicates
the presence of bacteria tested. In addition,
the TTC was added to each well and
incubated for 20 minutes up to two hours in a
dark place. A positive result is the presence of
bacterial growth that produces a colour
change to pink while for negative results
produced no colour change. FIC index was

3.8 Time-Kill Assay (TKA)
Time-kill
was
assessed
using
microbroth dilution technique by [69] which
use for confirmatory test of synergistic effect
between pterostilbene and antibiotics. 40 μl
MHB was inserted in the well of microtiter
plate and then 10 μl combination agents (in
ratio 1:1) with a concentration of synergistic
respectively were added. Next, 50 µl of
bacterial inoculum was added and make the
final volume of each well is about 100 µl.
Growth control only contains 50 µl of bacteria
inoculum and 50 µl of MHB. This test is
carried out in triplicate. Then, 96-well
microtiter plate was incubated at 37 ° C and
counting of bacterial colonies was performed
at 0, 4, 8 and 24 hours.
At each of these times, 10 µl of samples
are taken and two-fold dilution was conducted
using normal saline (0.9% NaCl). After that,
spread evenly over MHA using the L-shaped
rod or wire loop and incubated for 24 hours at
37 0C. Bacteria colony count was done to
determine CFU / ml based on each plate
consisting of 10-500 colonies. Certain dilution
factors used to determine the range of the
number of colonies that can be counted on
petri plates. Curve of time-kill was plotted
which y axis represents log10 CFU / ml and
the x axis represents time (hour). Time-kill
assay was performed using three different
concentrations of 0.5X, 1.0X, 2.0X MIC and
synergistic concentration (KS).
Bactericidal effect was defined as a
decrease of ≥ 3 log 10 CFU / ml in colony
count compared to original inoculum after
24hours of incubation [70]. Synergy was
