Some new 3-[(5-benzylidene-2-phenyl)-3, 5-dihydro-4-H-imidazol-4-one-3-(4-bezoylhydrazono)]-indole-2-ones (VIII) have been synthesized from different isatinhydrazones (II) by condensing with 2-phenyl-5-benzylidene- 3-N (4-acetyl phenyl)-1, 5-dihydro-imidazol-4-one (VII). Their chemical structures have been confirmed by IR, 1HNMR, MASS and by elemental analysis. Investigation of antimicrobial ac...

a study was performed to determine the species and antimicrobial susceptibility of 100 enterococcus strains from various clinical specimens as etiological agents at the clinical microbiology laboratory, istanbul university, medical faculty hospital. out of 100 enterococcal isolates, 86 were identified as e. faecalis, 11 as e. faecium, 1 as e. avium and 2 as e. raffinosus. by the disk diffusion ...

background and aims: extended-spectrum β-lactamase (esbl) producing gram negative bacteria are resistant to penicillins, narrow and extended-spectrum cephalosporins, and aztreonam; also they are frequently resistant to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, aminoglycosides, and quinolones. this study aimed to investigate the prevalence of plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance (pmqr) determinants qnra, ...

background and objective: nowadays, incidence of antibiotic-resistance among pathogenic bacteria has increased due to indiscriminate use of antimicrobial drugs for treatment of diseases, especially urinary tract infections. medicinal plants are also of great importance as antibacterial agents. therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the antibacterial effect of ethanolic extract of net...

Antimicrobial and Antioxidant Potential of Tinospora Cordifolia were performed by In-vitro Methods. For this study stem plant cordifolia where collected dried under shade. Morphological characteristics Physio-chemical parameters investigated. Plant materials extracted Soxhlet extraction method then Pharmacognostical evaluation extract was subjected to various phytochemical tests for preliminary...

Although a variety of techniques are available for antimicrobial susceptibility testing, disk diffusion methods remain the most widely used. We compared the accuracy of disk diffusion zone diameters as obtained by manual zone measurements in a low resource country (Indonesia) to that by automated zone measurements (Oxoid aura image system) in a high resource setting (the Netherlands) to determi...

The management of infections due to A. baumannii is difficult because of rapidly developing resistance, however, tigecycline, a glycylcycline antimicrobial, is in use for several years. In the present study, it was aimed to determine the susceptibility rates of A. baumannii to tigecycline. A total of 90 A. baumanni isolates were tested using three methods such as disk diffusion, broth microdilu...
