چکیده

The bacteriostatic activities of monoacyl sugar alcohols with different acyl chains and hydrophilic heads were examined against some thermophilic sporeformers. Monomyristoyl erythritol and xylitol efficaciously suppressed their spore development. The number and orientation of the hydroxyl groups also played important roles in this activity, and monomyristoyl xylitol exhibited the highest activity among the monomyristoyl sugar alcohols.

Distribution of thermophilic aerobic sporeforming bacteria in food ingredients.

Samples of sugar, starch, spices, and miscellaneous products were tested for thermophilic sporeformers of Bacillus to determine the dominant species present. Surface colonies selected at random were identified. Six species of Bacillus were isolated: B. stearothermophilus, B. coagulans, B. licheniformis, B. subtilis, B. circulans, and B. pumilus. Samples of starch and pepper were tested for ther...

Influences of Dryopteris crassirhizoma extract on the viability, growth and virulence properties of Streptococcus mutans.

Dryopteris crassirhizoma is traditionally used as an herbal remedy for various diseases, and has been identified in a previous study as a potential anti-caries agent. In this study, the effect of a methanol extract of D. crassirhizoma on the viability, growth and virulence properties of Streptococcus mutans, a cariogenic dental pathogen, was investigated. In addition, the phytochemical composit...

Dynamics and structure of hydrogen-bonding glass formers: comparison between hexanetriol and sugar alcohols based on dielectric relaxation.

Broadband dielectric spectra of supercooled 1,2,6-hexanetriol are presented in order to reveal physical picture behind a glass transition of polyhydric alcohols. It has been reported so far that temperature dependences of alpha relaxation time for sugar alcohols exhibit systematic trend against number of carbon atoms or OH groups per molecule. However, because each molecule is composed of equal...

Synthesis of Some New Quinazolinone Derivatives and Evaluation of Their Antimicrobial Activities

Wide range of quinazolinone biological properties including: antibacterial, anticancer, and anti-inflammatory activities encouraged us to synthesis some fused quinazolinone derivatives. Anthranilic acid was condensed with chloro acylchloride followed by dehydration to form the benzoxazinone intermediate; subsequent addition of an amine provided the fused quinazolinones. Deoxyvasicinone which wa...
