In this work, we reported the synthesis and evaluation of antimycobacterial and antifungalactivity of a series of thiocarbohydrazone derivatives which are thiacetazone congeners. Thetarget compounds were synthesized in superior yields by reacting thiocarbohydrazide withdifferent aromatic aldehydes and methyl ketones. Compounds 8, 19 and 25 were found to bethe most potent derivatives, exhibiting...

This study investigated changes in the mutagenic activity of organic fractions from soil contaminated with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) during pilot-scale bioslurry remediation. Slurry samples were previously analyzed for changes in PAH and polycyclic aromatic compound content, and this study examined the correspondence between the chemical and toxicological metrics. Nonpolar neutral...

Cupriavidus pinatubonensis JMP134, like many other environmental bacteria, uses a range of aromatic compounds as carbon sources. Previous reports have shown a preference for benzoate when this bacterium grows on binary mixtures composed of this aromatic compound and 4-hydroxybenzoate or phenol. However, this observation has not been extended to other aromatic mixtures resembling a more archetyp...

the series of 3-(substitutedphenyl)-n-(4h-1,2,4-triazol-4-yl)acrylamide compounds were prepared byreaction of 4-amino-1,2,4-triazole with acetyl chloride followed by claisen-schmidt condensation reactionwith different aromatic aldehydes. the structures of new compounds were confirmed by ir, 1h-nmr and13c-nmr spectral data. anti-bacterial and anti-fungal activities were evaluated and compared wi...
