Objective To identify the antibacterial mechanism of eugenol against Staphylococcus aureus that causes pressure sores. Methods The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of eugenol on S. aureus was determined by microbroth dilution method and growth curve. Subsequently, AKP activity, bacterial nucleic acid protein leakage, bacterial ultrastructure observed by scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy, as well as PI and NPN uptake of eugenol on S. aureus were detected to determine its permeability and integrity of cell membrane of S. aureus treated with eugenol. The effect of eugenol on the formation and maturation of S. aureus ATCC29213 and MRSA biofilms was studied by crystal violet staining. The expression levels of eugenol on biofilms and adhesion and invasion-related virulence factors were detected by real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR after exposure. Results The results showed that the MIC of eugenol against S. aureus ATCC29213 and MRSA were respectively 0.25 and 0.125 mg/mL. After eugenol intervention, the concentration of nucleic acid and protein as well as the activity of AKP can be increased in bacterial culture medium. The bacteria were crumpled and ruptured, and PI and NPN fluorescence appeared in the inner membrane and outer membrane, respectively. The damage of cell structure and fluorescence intensity were positively correlated with eugenol concentration. Eugenol can inhibit the BF formation of S. aureus strain, and has obvious scavenging effect on mature BF. Eugenol significantly reduced the expression levels of biofilm related genes including agrA, sarA, cidA and icaA and significantly inhibited the expression levels of adhesion factors such as clfA, clfB, fnbA and fnbB. It was also found that eugenol had a more significant inhibitory effect on MRSA. Conclusion Eugenol has significant antibacterial effect on both standard and drug-resistant strains of S. aureus. Eugenol can damage the cell structure of S. aureus, change both the permeability of cell membrane and the integrity of cell wall. Eugenol can inhibit the generation of biofilms of S. aureus, promote the removal of mature biofilms as well. It does inhibit the transcription and expression of virulence factors related to bacterial biofilm and adhesion invasion, and it may be one of the mechanisms by which moxibustion can promote the wound repair on pressure ulcer.
