OBJECTIVES AND METHODS A collection of novel N-hydroxy-3,3-dimethyl-2,6-diarylpiperidin-4-one oximes 28-32 are synthesized, characterized by melting point, elemental analysis, MS, FT-IR, one-dimensional NMR (1H & 13C) and two dimensional Noesy spectroscopic data and evaluate for their in vitro antibacterial and antifungal activities. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION Compound 32, exerted a wide range of...

Extracts from leaves and stem bark of Peschiera van heurkii (Muell. Arg.) L. Allorge (syn. Tabernaemontana van heurkii Muell. Arg., Apocynaceae) have been assayed for antileishmanial and antibacterial activities. The activities were concentrated in the alkaloid fractions which yielded 20 indole and bisindole alkaloids. The strongest leishmanicidal and antibacterial activities were observed with...

the antibacterial and antioxidant activities of methanol and acetone extracts of three marine algae, including hypnea hamulosa, gracilaria corticata and enteromorpha intestinalis wereinvestigated.antioxidant activities were determined by means of total antioxidant capacity, total phenolic compounds, dpph radical scavenging activity and ferric reducing antioxidant power. antibacterial activity w...

background: mentha piperita l. essential oils have different antibacterial activity. in the present study, we investigated the effect of γ–irradiation on the antibacterial activities of mentha piperita l. essential oils in vitro and in vivo systems. materials and methods: the aerial parts of peppermint were irradiated in a cobalt60 source with 0, 10 and 25 kgy absorbed doses. then, the plants w...

PURPOSE To evaluate phytochemical composition, antibacterial and antioxidant properties of methanolic extracts of different parts viz., leaves, follicles and latex of Indian devil tree (Alstonia scholaris Linn.) R. Br. METHODS Antibacterial activities of the methanol extracts against Gram +ve (Bacillus subtilis and Staphylococcus aureus) and Gram -ve (Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa)...

Ceragenins constitute a novel family of cationic antibiotics characterized by a broad spectrum of antimicrobial activities, which have mostly been assessed in vitro. Using a polarized human lung epithelial cell culture system, we evaluated the antibacterial activities of the ceragenin CSA-13 against two strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa (PAO1 and Xen5). Additionally, the biodistribution and bac...

A new series of quinoline derivatives incorporated to glycosides and biologically active heterocyclic moieties were synthesized starting with 6-bromo-4-hydroxyquinaldine (6-bromo-4-hydroxy-2-methylquinoline) compound 1. Some of the synthesized compounds were evaluated for their antibacterial and antifungal activities. Most of the tested compounds exhibited potential antibacterial activity again...

Ocimum sanctum fixed oil showed good antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus pumilus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, where S. aureus was the most sensitive organism. Sesame and soyabean oils also showed moderate activity against S. aureus. Higher content of linolenic acid in O. sanctum fixed oil could contribute towards its antibacterial activity. The antibacterial activity c...

bacterial resistance is a major drawback in chemotherapy of infectious diseases. in this investigation a new series of 3,5-diarylamide dihydropyridines containing 2-benzylsulfonylimidazol at 4 position have been synthesized and studied for their enhancing effect on the antibacterial activities of different penicillins against a resistant clinical isolate of s. aureus using disc diffusion method...
