Background: Artemisia dracunculus L. belongs to the Anthemideae tribe of Asteraceae family. This plant has been used in traditional folk medicine. Also, it's anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and hepatoprotective activity has been proved. Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the antioxidant activity of leaves and inflorescence of A. dracunculus and als...

considering the emergence of antibiotic resistance, scientists are interested in using new antimicrobial agents in the treatment of infectious diseases including infections of the enteric systems. lactic acid bacteria have the great potential to produce antimicrobial compounds that inhibit and control pathogenic bacteria. the aim of this study was to determine the anti-bacterial and anti-adhere...

Five thiourea derivative ligands and their Ni(2+) and Cu(2+) complexes have been synthesized. The compounds were screened for their in vitro anti-bacterial activity using Gram-positive bacteria (two different standard strains of Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, Enterococcus faecalis, Streptococcus pyogenes, Bacillus cereus) and Gram-negative bacteria (Esherichia coli, Pseudomo...

calendula of.cinalis (asteraceae) is widely used in traditional medicine as an anti-in.ammatory agent and has also been reported to have anti-bacterial, anti-fungal and anti-viral activities.  sesquiterpene glycosides, saponins, triol, triterpenes and .avonoids are observed in its composition. the present study was designed to evaluate the antinociceptive effect of hydro-alcoholic extract of ca...

Substituted 1, 2, 4- Triazoles have shown multiple biological activities such as anti-inflammatory, anti fungal, etc. 5-mercapto triazoles were prepared from the potassium dithiocarbazinates. These triazoles were used for preparation of different derivatives by two different schemes. In the first scheme the Mannich bases were prepared from 5- marcapto-s triazole Quinazolines. The 5-Marcato-s-Tr...

A series of 3-amino-4-[2-(4-chlorophenyl)hydrazin-1-ylidene]-1-[(2-oxo-2H-chromen-3-yl)carbonyl]4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazol-5-one (4a-j) and its Schiff bases (5a-i) have been synthesized. The structures of the newly synthesized compounds were confirmed by IR, NMR and Mass spectral analysis. The titled compounds were screened for their invivoanalgesic activity by acetic acid-induced writhing model in...

Considerable attention has been focused on the synthesis of benzimidazoles due to having a broad spectrum of biological activities such as anti-parasitic, fungicidal, anti-thelemintic and anti-inflammatory activities. As a part of our research work in this area, a series of benzimidasole derivatives (3a-n) were synthesized in good to high yields by reaction of o-phenylenediamine and different a...
