The study was conducted to evaluate a new cefixime-clavulanic acid combination for in vitro susceptibility towards gram-negative bacteria. A total of 220 isolates of Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeroginosa, Acinetobacter spp, Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi and Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium were included in the study. The isolates were tested for susceptibili...

Twelve thermosensitive H1 plasmids from strains of Salmonella typhi that had caused outbreaks of chloramphenicol-resistant typhoid fever in Vietnam, Thailand and India mediated citrate utilization (Cit+) in a prototrophic Escherichia coli K 1 2 strain but not in the S. typhi strains from which they were derived. Four HI plasmids from a similar outbreak in Mexico diflered from the Far Eastern pl...

From specimens 160 (66.6%) were females 80 (33.3 %) males .Out total only 195 (81.3%) showed significant bacterial growth ,135(69.2%) female 60 (30.7%) specimens. result ...

Indonesian waters are rich in biological resources of seaweed, one which is seaweed Eucheuma cottonii. However, its use still limited for the process making various foods such as food thickeners, stabilizers and forming gels. Even though it's cottonii has a much more important role, namely containing bioactive components that can function antibacterials beneficial to human health. The aim this ...

A study was conducted to determine the antibacterial and antifungal activities of Polygonum hydropiper (L.) root extract on chloroform against both bacteria and fungi using the disc diffusion method. The extract showed significant antibacterial activities against four gram-positive (Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus megaterium, Stapphylococcus aureus and Enterobacter aerogenes) and four gram-negative...

A series of 2-substituted-1H-benzimidazole derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for antimicrobial, antifungal and cytotoxic activities. The results showed that all tested compounds showed potent antimicrobial activity against some species of Gram-negative bacteria (Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhi) and fungi (Candida albicans) with minimum inhibitory concentratio...

Bioproducts of Mushroom have multi beneficial effects for human welfare. Medicinal mushrooms are widely used as traditional medicinal ingredients for the treatment of various diseases and related health problems. Most of the medicinal extracts from mushroom are different forms of polysaccharides which strengthens the immune system with little or no side effect. Medicinal mushroom research has f...

Ethyl acetate (EA) extract of the stem bark of Cylicodiscus gabunensis (CG) was analysed phytochemically and evaluated for its antimicrobial activity against 17 pathogenic species isolated from patient: Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Shigella dysenteriae, Shigella flexneri, Morganella morganii, Proteus vulgaris, Proteus mirabilis, Salmonella typhi, Citrobacter freundii, Enterobacter c...

A novel series of thiazolidinone derivatives, namely 4-{4-dimethylamino-6-[4-oxo-2-phenyl-5-(4-pyridin-2-yl-piperazin-1-ylmethyl)-thiazolidin-3-yl]-[1,3,5]-triazin-2-yloxy}-1-methyl-1H-quinolin-2-ones, have been synthesized from the key intermediate 4-(4-amino-6-dimethylamino-[1,3,5]-triazin-2-yloxy)-1-methyl-1H-quinolin-2-one (5). Compound 5 was condensed with various aldehydes to give Schiff ...

Methanolic extracts of leaves of Eucalyptus camaldulensis and Terminalia catappa were studied for in vitro microbial activities by agar dilution method. The phytochemical analysis of the crude extracts of the medicinal plants revealed the presence of saponin, saponin glycosides, steroid, cardiac glycoside, tannins, volatile oils, phenols and balsam (gum). The methanolic extracts of the two plan...
