The purpose of this study is to determine the antibacterial capabilities and activities of crude Pleurotus ostreatus extracts against Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 25923), Escherichia coli (ATCC 25922), Neisseria gonorrhoeae (ATCC 49926), and nine multidrug-resistant clinical isolates of Neisseria gonorrhoeae. All of these isolates exhibited sensitivity to azithromycin and ceftriaxone, while the majority of antibiotic resistance was seen against penicillin G, sulphonamide, and ciprofloxacin. Fifty percent of the isolates exhibited absolute resistance to both sulphonamide and ciprofloxacin, whereas 40% of the isolates displayed absolute resistance to penicillin G. The antibacterial activity of P. ostreatus extracts examined in this investigation varied within the same species of microorganisms. Extract B and D, extracted in the presence of 20% wheat bran bagasse and 20% maize flour bagasse, respectively, had exceptional antibacterial activity against all target isolates examined. We observed the lowest concentration of antibacterial agent required to inhibit the target bacteria to be between 1\u2009\u00d7\u200910\u22123\u2009mg\/ml and 1\u2009\u00d7\u200910\u22126\u2009mg\/ml with an estimated probability of 0.30769, a lower 95% confidence interval (CI) of 0.126807, an upper 95% CI of 0.576307, an estimated probability of 0.15385, a lower 95% CI of 0.043258, and an upper 95% CI, respectively. The MBC of 1\u2009\u00d7\u200910\u22123\u2009mg\/ml was seen to eliminate 31% of the target bacteria. This dose was the most inhibitive. The antibacterial activity of all the extracts examined in the current study exhibited some degree of efficacy against both clinical isolates and standard strains. However, the majority of clinically isolated bacteria exhibited greater resistance to the extracts.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2023\/1777039","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,4,17]],"date-time":"2023-04-17T19:05:06Z","timestamp":1681758306000},"page":"1-9","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":17,"title":["Screening of Antimicrobial Properties and Bioactive Compounds of Pleurotus Ostreatus Extracts against Staphylococcus Aureus, Escherichia coli, and Neisseria Gonorrhoeae"],"prefix":"10.1155","volume":"2023","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1048-039X","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Sinethemba H.","family":"Yakobi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Life Sciences, Biochemistry, University of KwaZulu-Natal, Durban, South Africa"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2832-1343","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Senzosenkosi","family":"Mkhize","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Life Sciences, Biochemistry, University of KwaZulu-Natal, Durban, South Africa"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2967-7846","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Ofentse J.","family":"Pooe","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Life Sciences, Biochemistry, University of KwaZulu-Natal, Durban, South Africa"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","reference":[{"key":"1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1155\/2015\/376387"},{"key":"2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3390\/ijms22020634"},{"key":"3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3390\/su13095019"},{"key":"4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1155\/2022\/9436614"},{"key":"5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.bcab.2021.102250"},{"key":"6","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","DOI":"10.1080\/21655979.2021.2001183","article-title":"A review of the therapeutic and biological effects of edible and wild mushrooms","volume":"12","author":"G.
