Therefore, kaempferol can be used to prevent and treat this disease.
Kaempferol has good antibacterial activity and also has effect on methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). K-Br paper method shows that 50 mg/tablet can make the inhibition zone of MRSA reach 8.5 mm, and it also has good antibacterial activity against Vibrio cholerae and Enterococcus faecalis. In the aspect of anti-virus, kaempferol can inhibit in a concentration dependent manner at non cytotoxic concentration
Kaempferol has many nutritional and health functions, such as anti-oxidation, anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, prevention and treatment of diabetes, atherosclerosis and osteoporosis, protection of nerves, liver and myocardium, inhibition of protein kinase, etc. As health food and medicine, kaempferol has a very broad market.
