Abstract:

Background: Rhodoccocus equi, Brucella abortus, and Pasteurella multocida are important veterinary bacterial pathogens that in recent years have been resisted to current antibiotics, and this problem threats the livestock industry. To control this resistant microorganisms, use of new antibacterial compounds, such as thiazole derivatives, in veterinary is necessary. OBJECTIVES: In this study, antibacterial effects of thiazole derivatives on Rhodoccocus equi, Brucella abortus, and Pasteurella multocida were evaluated. METHODS: Synthesized thiazole derivatives were prepared in DMSO, then the disk diffusion method was used to measure growth inhibition zone diameter and the broth microdilution method was applied to determine the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC). RESULTS: Results showed that thiazole derivatives had no significant inhibitory effects on B. abrotus, while they had inhibitory effects on R. equi and P. multocida with inhibition zone 12.7±0.4 -30.1±0.2 mm and MICs 32- 256 μg/ml. CONCLUSIONS: Results of this study indicate that thiazole derivatives have considerable inhibitory effects on R. equi and P. multocida as veterinary bacterial pathogens.

Antibacterial Effects of Novel Thiazole Derivatives and the Toxicity of Oxothiazole on Liver Histopathology of Mice

Abstract       Background and Objectives: Antibiotic resistance in bacteria has actuated researchers toward evaluating many new antibacterial compounds of which are the thiazoles. In this research the inhibitory effects of novel thiazole derivatives were unraveled on Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus agalactiae, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Klebsiella pneumoniae a...

Pathogenomics of Pasteurella multocida.

The first complete genome sequence of the P. multocida avian isolate Pm70 was reported in 2001. Analysis of the genome identified many predicted virulence genes, including two encoding homologues of the Bordetella pertussis filamentous haemagluttinins, and genes involved in iron transport and metabolism. Availability of the genome sequence allowed for a range of whole-genome trans...

این مطالعه در سال 1386-87 در آزمایشگاه و مزرعه پژوهشی دانشگاه صنعتی اصفهان به منظور تعیین مناسب ترین تیمار بذری و ارزیابی اثر پرایمینگ بر روی سه رقم گلرنگ تحت سه رژیم آبیاری انجام گرفت. برخی از مطالعات اثرات سودمند پرایمینگ بذر را بر روی گیاهان مختلف بررسی کرده اند اما در حال حاضر اطلاعات کمی در مورد خصوصیات مربوط به جوانه زنی، مراحل نموی، عملکرد و خصوصیات کمی و کیفی بذور تیمار شده ژنوتیپ های م...

Bactericidal Effect of Silver Nanoparticles on Intramacrophage Brucella abortus 544

BACKGROUND Brucellosis is an infectious disease that is caused by Brucella spp. As Brucella spp. are intramacrophage pathogens, the treatment of this infection is very difficult. On the other hand, due to the side effects of the brucellosis treatment regime, it is necessary to find new antimicrobial agents against it. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to investigate the antimicrobial effec...
