objective(s): to evaluate the in vitro interaction between different extracts of thymbra spicata l. and certain antimicrobial drugs of different mechanisms, including ampicillin, cefotaxime, amikacin and ciprofloxacin. this study was performed against multidrug-resistant strains of staphylococcus aureus and klebsiella pneumoniae. materials and methods: evaluation of antibacterial activity and s...

In the present study, a series of new substituted oxazolone derivatives (4a-4h) were synthesized by the Erlenmeyer condensation of phthaloylglycylglycine with different aldehydes in the presence of anhydrous sodium acetate and acetic anhydride. The structure of newly-synthesized compounds were evaluated by elemental analyses and spectral ( UV-Visible, IR, NMR, Mass) studies. All the synthe...

During the last two decades, various medicinal plants have been studied for their possible antimicrobial activity to discover new antimicrobial agents capable of resolving problems such as the development of drug resistance in pathogenic microorganisms as well as the side effects of some present antibiotics. In this study, the antibacterial activity of methanolic extract of T. pubescens (rich i...

Background: German chamomile (Matricaria recotita) as a medicinal plant has several therapeutic effects. Since the extract of this plant contains a high amount of α-bisabolol (Terpenoid) its antibacterial properties can be considered. Staphylococcus aureus as a pathogenic bacterium is important in clinical situations and food hygiene. So, investigation of effects of antibacterial compounds agai...

 Background: In recent years, plants natural products have gained considerable attention as natural preservers for use in different industries. Due to their free radical scavenging activities, phenolic compounds can prevent a wide range of diseases such as cancers and cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases. For a long time, different Ferulago species have been in use as medicina...
