Antimicrobial activity of the roots of Eranthemum roseum (Vahl) R.Br. (Dasmuli), were tested against different bacteria (including Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Shigella sonnei, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Salmonella typhi, Proteus vulgaris, Pseudomonas aeruginosa) and fungi (such as Candida albicans and Aspergillus niger) by cup plate diffusion method. Minimal Inhibito...

rue, ruta graveolens, is a medicinal plant in traditional medicine that has several therapeutic properties such as anti-carcinogenic agent, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, hypotensive, and spasmolytic. this study was carried out to evaluate the antibacterial effects of the etanolic extract of rue against piscine pathogenic bacteria viz. lactococcus garvieae and aeromonas hydrophi...

The fungal genus Paecilomyces comprises numerous pathogenic and saprobic species, which are regularly isolated from insects, nematodes, soil, air, food, paper and many other materials. Some of the Paecilomyces species have been known to exhibit capabilities for curing human diseases. Here, bioactivities of metabolites from some soil inhabitant and invertebrate pathogenic Paecilomyces species we...

A new strain of Streptomyces identified as Streptomyces rajshahiensis (RUPA08-PR) was isolated from the soil of Rajshahi, Bangladesh. Ethyl acetate was the most convenient solvent for the extraction of antimicrobial metabolites from the culture filtrate of this strain. From the ethyl acetate extract compound 1 was isolated, purified and characterized by spectral data. The compound showed antiba...

Garcinia atroviridis (Clusiaceae) has been used as a postpartum medication agent in folkloric medicine. However, its biological potential has not been fully evaluated. The present study was aimed to evaluate the antioxidant efficacies, cholinesterase enzyme inhibitory and antimicrobial activity of the stem bark extracts of G. atroviridis. Successive extraction was done using solvents of varied ...

the antimicrobial activity of thirty six novel dihydropyrimidine derivatives was evaluated against common pathogenic bacteria. significant antimicrobial activity (mic=32, 64 µg/ml) was observed. escherichia coli and pseudomonas aeruginosa as gram-negative bacteria and staphylococcus aureus as gram-positive bacteria were determined to be the most susceptible pathogens in this study. the highest ...

the resistance of antimicrobials has become a global hazard with the irrational use of antibiotics. infection of drug-resistance bacteria seriously threatens human health. currently there is an urgent need for the development of novel antimicrobial agents with new mechanisms and lower levels of toxicity. in this paper, a series of (s,z)-4-methyl-2-(4-oxo-5-((5-substitutedphenylfuran-2-yl) methy...

A century after the discovery of rhizobia, first Beta-proteobacteria species (beta-rhizobia) were isolated from legume nodules in South Africa and America. Since then, numerous belonging to Burkholderiaceae family have been isolated. The presence a highly branching lineage nodulation genes beta-rhizobia suggests long symbiotic history. In this review, we focus on beta-rhizobial genus Paraburkho...
