Cardol (C15 : 3), isolated from cashew(Anacardium occidentaleL.) nut shell liquid, has been shown to exhibit bactericidal activity against various strains ofStaphylococcus aureus,including methicillin-resistant strains. The maximum level of reactive oxygen species generation was detected at around the minimum bactericidal concentration of cardol, while reactive oxygen species production drastically decreased at doses above the minimum bactericidal concentration. The primary response for bactericidal activity around the bactericidal concentration was noted to primarily originate from oxidative stress such as intracellular reactive oxygen species generation. High doses of cardol (C15 : 3) were shown to induce leakage of K+fromS. aureuscells, which may be related to the decrease in reactive oxygen species. Antioxidants such asα-tocopherol and ascorbic acid restricted reactive oxygen species generation and restored cellular damage induced by the lipid. Cardol (C15 : 3) overdose probably disrupts the native membrane-associated function as it acts as a surfactant. The maximum antibacterial activity of cardols againstS. aureusdepends on their logPvalues (partition coefficient in octanol/water) and is related to their similarity to those of anacardic acids isolated from the same source.
