Salicylate induces multiple antibiotic resistance in various bacterial species. Here we investigated the effect of salicylate on the susceptibility of Mycobacterium tuberculosis to a range of antituberculosis (anti-TB) drugs. In the presence of salicylate, the killing effects of isoniazid (INH), rifampin (RMP), ethambutol (EMB), streptomycin (STR), and p-aminosalicylate (PAS) were reduced, as s...

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...

BACKGROUND: Bacterial gastroenteritis is a disease in the tropics form of inflammation stomach and intestines due to several bacteria, such as Salmonella, Campylobacter, Shigella, Escherichia coli, Vibrio, Yersinia, Listeria with symptoms diarrhea without or vomiting frequent fever. Gastroenteritis global highest prevalence agricultural community, especially farmers fishermen. AIM: This researc...

Macrolide antibiotics are well known for their antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. This article provides an overview of the biological mechanisms through which macrolides exert this 'double effect'. Their antibacterial effect consists of the inhibition of bacterial protein synthesis, impaired bacterial biofilm synthesis, and the attenuation of other bacterial virulence factors. Apar...
