The invention belongs to the field of biological
medicine, and particularly relates to application of a
biphenyl compound in resisting
drug-
resistant bacteria and a product. The invention provides an application of 2, 4-dihydroxy-4 '-pentylbiphenyl and / or 3, 5-dihydroxy-4'-pentylbiphenyl in preparation of a product for resisting
drug-
resistant bacteria, and a preparation method of the 2, 4-dihydroxy-4 '-pentylbiphenyl. The result of the embodiment shows that compared with other
antibiotics such as
penicillin, ceftaroline fosamil, oxacillin and
levofloxacin, the 2, 4-dihydroxy-4 '-pentylbiphenyl and / or the 3, 5-dihydroxy-4'-pentylbiphenyl can effectively inhibit various
drug-
resistant bacteria, and the effect is good. The 3, 5-dihydroxy-4 '-pentylbiphenyl can damage
cell nucleuses by destroying
cell membranes so as to achieve an
antibacterial effect, and has a remarkable inhibition effect on MRSA (Methicillin-Resistant
Staphylococcus Aureus). The 2, 4-dihydroxy-4 '-pentylbiphenyl and the 3, 5-dihydroxy-4'-pentylbiphenyl disclosed by the invention are used for resisting drug-resistant
bacteria, can effectively inhibit or kill various drug-resistant
bacteria, and have a good effect.
