THYMOL AS A VERMIFUGE.

Thymol Turbidity as a Liver Function Test

Thymol reaction in rheumatoid arthritis.

As demonstrated by various investigators (Carter and Maclagan, 1946; Stillerman, 1948; Poulsen, 1949; Kalbak, 1951), the thymol reaction is positive in rheumatoid arthritis patients at a somewhat advanced and active stage of the disease. This positive reaction is assumed to be due to changes in the serum proteins. Patients with rheumatoid arthritis generally show marked changes in the serum pro...

Evaluation of bactericidal activity of thymol-eugenol solution as a potential disinfectant agent

Aim: The emergence of nosocomial infections, which are mainly transmitted by contaminated instruments, there is an urgent need of a novel disinfecting agent, which can able to act by the novel method with less residual concentration. Evaluation of antibacterial activity of thymol-eugenol mixture for potential application as disinfectant agent. Methods: The reference strains of Escherichia coli,...

Thymol derivatives from Carpesium divaricatum.

Four thymol derivatives, 2,5-dimethoxythymol (1), 2-methoxythymol isobutyrate (2), 10-isobutyloxy-8,9-epoxythymolisobutyrate (3) and 10-(2-methylbutyloxy)-8,9-epoxythymolisobutyrate (4) were isolated from the aerial parts of Carpesium divaricatum. The structures were elucidated by high field 1D and 2D NMR techniques.

Ex vivo absorption of thymol and thymol-β-D-glucopyranoside in piglet everted jejunal segments.

Food-producing animals are reservoirs of Campylobacter, a leading bacterial cause of human foodborne illness. The natural product thymol can reduce the survivability of Campylobacter, but its rapid absorption in the proximal gastrointestinal tract may preclude its use as a feed additive to reduce intestinal colonization of these pathogens. This work examined the ex vivo absorption of thymol and...
