Relationship between antimicrobial activity and amphipathic structure of ginsenosides

Ginsenoside has a wide range of pharmacological activities, but little research has been conducted on its microbial pathogen inhibition and the relationship between its antimicrobial activity and saponin structure. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) or minimum fungicidal concentration (MFC) of a series of ginsenosides were used to investigate the antimicrobial activity of the ginsenosides. And...
