Bioassay of Antibacterial Agents Used as Feed Additive

Fish processing wastes used as feed ingredient for animal feed and aquaculture feed

Fish wastes management has become a global problem from the last years. Dispose of seafood wastes cause environmental pollution. To overcome this issue these unwanted seafood products are used for the formation of animal feed and aquaculture feed. These unwanted products include small fish and those parts of fish which are not used as human food. These unwanted parts include viscera, head, fins...

Onion powder as feed additive in Procambarus clarkii culture

120 days trial was performed to evaluate the effect of dietary onion powder on the growth performance of red swamp crayfish Procambarus clarkii. Crayfish with initial body weight of 1.37±0.13 g were randomly stocked to experimental tanks. Four different onion powder levels in ratios of 10, 20, 30, and 40 g/kg were added to the formulated experimental basal feed and a control group was fed with ...

Novel Levofloxacin Derivatives as Potent Antibacterial Agents

In this report, a new series of fluoroquinolone agents which was derived from levofloxacin was synthesized and evaluated against Gram-positive (Bacillus subtillis, Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis and Micrococcus luteus) and Gram-negative (Esherichio coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Serratia marcescens) organisms. The results showed that some of the synth...

Dendrimers as Antibacterial Agents

Synthesis of some new tetrahydropyrimidine derivatives as possible antibacterial agents

Heterocyclic compounds containing a pyrimidine nucleus are of special interests due to their applications in medicinal chemistry as they are the basic skeleton of several bioactive compounds such as antifungal, antibacterial, antitumor and antitubercular. As a part of our research in the synthesis of pyrimidine derivatives containing biological activities, some new tetrahydropyrimidine derivati...
