چکیده
Antimicrobial activity in some lichens from south Spain has been studied. Some lichenical substances are also identified. The structures of all compounds were elucidated by physical, spectral and chemical methods. A very high activity against Gram-positive bacteria has been observed in lichens containing usnic acid.

متن کاملIn vitro evaluation of the antimicrobial activity of lichen metabolites as potential preservatives.
Antimicrobial screening of several lichen species and subsequent isolation and structure elucidation of active compounds revealed that the hydrolysis products of certain lichen metabolites, i.e., depsides, were active against gram-negative bacteria and fungi as well as gram-positive bacteria. The active constituents isolated from Stereocaulon alpinum and Peltigera aphthosa were identified, resp...

3-(2’-n-butylbenzofuran-3’-yl)-5-aryl-4, 5-dihydro-1H-pyrazoles (4a-4k) have been synthesized. The synthesized products have been assayed for their antimicrobial activity against Gram+ve, Gram-ve bacteria and fungi. All the synthesized products were assigned with IR, 1HNMR, Mass Spectra, TLC, and elemental analysis. Some of the products showed moderate activi...
