Derivatives of thiazolidinone ring systems are known to act as anti-HIV infections , analgesic, anti-bacterial, anti-convulsant, anti parasitic, potential anti-inflammatory and herbicidal agents. Due biological activities of thiazolidinones ring, several methods for their synthesis have been illustrated in literature. Imidazolidine-2-thiones were synthesized by the oxidative cyclization of 1-be...

conclusions this study indicated that some bacillus species have the potential to produce antimicrobial compounds which can be used to control microbial infections. results the identified bacillus species included b. cereus (86.6%), b. subtilis (6.6%), b. thuringiensis (3.3%), and b. pumilus (3.3%). evaluation of the antimicrobial activity of the extracted compounds was carried out against five...

introduction: both midazolam and promethazine are recommended to be used as sedatives in many studies but each have some side effects that limits their use. combination therapy as an alternative method, may decreases these limitations. therefore, this study aimed to compare midazolam with midazolam-promethazine regarding induction, maintenance, and recovery characteristics following pediatric p...

background: emergence of antimicrobial resistance toward a number of conventional antibiotics has triggered the search for antimicrobial agents from a variety of sources including the marine environment. objectives: the aim of this study was to evaluate the antimicrobial potential of holothuria leucospilota from qeshm and kharg islands against some selected bacteria and fungi. materials and met...

Background: Paenibacillus larvae is the etiological agent of American foulbrood (AFB) disease, the most lethal disease in honeybee (Apis mellifera) larvae. Aims: The aim of the present work was to study the antimicrobial effect of cell free supernatant (CFS) of probiotics on an Iranian isolate’s biofilm formation. Methods: A l...

the occurrence of antibiotic-resistant pathogenic bacteria is becoming a serious problem. the rise of multiresistance strains has forced the pharmaceutical industry to come up with new generation of more effective and potent antibiotics, therefore creating development of antivirulence compounds. due to extensive usage of cell-to-cell bacterial communication (qs) systems to monitor the productio...

aqueous (hydrophilic) and chloroform (lipophilic) extracts of nine medicinal plants currently used in traditional medicine, in egypt, to treat some gastrointestinal tract (git) disorders were tested for their gastro-protective effect against the incidence of peptic ulcer. indomethacin-induced ulcer in a rat model was used for this testing. mentha microphylla, brassica oleracea capitata (cabbage...

results analysis of the essential oil revealed the presence of pulegone (68.59%) piperitone (7.8%), piperitenone (7.8%), 1, 8-cineole (1.3%), and carvacrol (1.6%) as the major components. the results showed a significant activity against mdr a. baumannii with inhibition zones and minimal inhibitory concentration values in the ranges of 7-15 mm and 20-35 µl/ml respectively. conclusions this inve...
