Resumo

The bovine mastitis is the main disease that affects dairy herds. Staphylococcus aureus as the etiologic agent is highly prevalent and difficult to control. Among the various virulence factors of the pathogen the ability to form biofilms, which are bacteria adhered to a surface surrounded by a matrix of organic polymers, gives great protection by preventing the action of phagocytic cells and the direct action of antibiotics on them. Because of the need to discover novel compounds that are effective for the control and treatment of disease, recent studies have demonstrated significant results in the inhibition of reduction of biomass or biofilm using vegetable extracts and isolated compounds.
