A large number of infections are caused by multi-resistant bacteria worldwide, adding up to a figure of around 700,000 deaths per year. Because of that many strategies are being developed in order to combat the resistance of microorganisms to drugs, in recent times, chalcones have been studied for this purpose. Chalcones are known as α, β-unsaturated ketones, characterized by having the presence of two aromatic rings that are joined by a three-carbon chain, they are a class of compounds considered an exceptional model due to chemical simplicity and a wide variety of biological activities, which include anticancer, anti-inflammatory, antioxidants, antimicrobials, anti-tuberculosis, anti-HIV, antimalarial, anti-allergic, antifungal, antibacterial, and antileishmanial. The objective of this work was evaluate the antibacterial and antibiotic modifying activity of chalcone (E)-1-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-3-(2,4-dimethoxy-3-methylphenyl)prop-2-en-1-one against the bacteria Staphylococcus aureus carrying a NorA and MepA efflux pump. The results showed that chalcone was able to synergistically modulate the action of Norfloxacin and Ethidium Bromide against the bacteria Staphylococcus aureus 1199B and K2068, respectively. The theoretical physicochemical and pharmacokinetic properties of chalcone showed that the chalcone did not present a severe risk of toxicity such as genetic mutation or cardiotoxicity, constituting a good pharmacological active ingredient.
