Several antimicrobial compounds have been used in commercial meat processing plants for decontamination of pathogens on beef carcasses, but there are many commercially available, novel antimicrobial compounds that may be more effective and suitable for use in beef processing pathogen-reduction programs. Sixty-four prerigor beef flanks (cutaneous trunci) were used in a study to determine whether...

regarding increasing rate of drug resistance among microbial pathogens, a global search to find new antimicrobial agents from natural compounds with fewer side effects has been considered by many researchers worldwide. bioactive compounds with good antimicrobial activity have been isolated from different algae and cyanobacteria. the current study was performed to determine antimicrobial potenti...

A series of new palmatine derivatives with alkyl or alkyl with N-heterocyclic structures were designed and synthesized at C-9-O according to the principle of association. These compounds were characterised by (1)H NMR, (13)C NMR, ESI-MS and elemental analysis, and tested for their antimicrobial activity in vitro to evaluate structure-activity relationships. The results indicated that 9-O-substi...

In the present study, the antimicrobial tests of patchouli oil were studied by using molecular docking technology and antimicrobial test in vitro. Five biological macromolecule enzymes, required by the bacteria in the process of biosynthesis were selected as target molecules. Five antibiotics benzylpenicillin, sulfadiazine, trimethoprim, rifampicin and ciprofloxacin, which are generally acknowl...

A series of new 4-thiazolidinone derivatives was synthesized, characterized by spectral techniques, and screened for antimicrobial activity. All the compounds were evaluated against five Gram-positive bacteria, two Gram-negative bacteria, and two fungi, at concentrations of 50, 100, 200, 400, 800, and 1600 µg/mL, respectively. Minimum inhibitory concentrations of all the compounds were also det...

a collection of enterococci  spp. (about 96 isolates) were isolated from two iranian raw milk cheeses, namely lighvan and koozeh, and subsequently, identified as enterococcus faecium , enterococcus faecalis , enterococcus durans , enterococcus casseliflavus and enterococcus italicus by 16s rdna sequencing. all of the 96 isolates were subjected to agar-spot and well-diffusion assay in order to d...

in this study, total phenolics and flavonoids content, antiradical and antimicrobial activity of methanolic extract of two iranian acorn varieties, namely quercus.castaneifolia var castaneifolia and quercus.branti var persica were evaluated. total phenolic and flavonoid content and extraction yield of methanolic extract of castaneifolia variety (mc) were significantly higher than that of the ex...

PURPOSE The aim of this article is to synthesize, characterize and evaluate the antimicrobial activity of certain novel 3-methyl-5-oxo-4-(phenyl hydrazono)-4,5-dihydro-pyrazol-1-yl]-acetic acid N|-(4-substituted thiazol-2-yl)-hydrazides. METHODS The synthesized compounds were characterized by elemental analysis and IR, NMR and mass spectral data. The antimicrobial activity of novel compounds ...

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...
