AIM The aim of this preliminary study was to investigate the in vitro effect of "non-antibiotic" trimebutine against reference strains Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 29213, ATCC 25923, Escherichia coli ATCC 25922, ATCC 35218, Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27853 and Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 29212; microbiota that are potentially involved in the pathophysiology of post-infectious functional gastroint...

Fungal biotransformations of α-santonin (1) were conducted with Mucor plumbeus (ATCC 4740), Cunninghamella bainieri (ATCC 9244), Cunninghamella echinulata (ATCC 9245), Curvularia lunata (ATCC 12017) and Rhizopus stolonifer (ATCC 10404). Rhizopus stolonifer (ATCC 10404) metabolized compound 1 to afford 3,4-epoxy-α-santonin (2) and 4,5-dihydroα-santonin (3) while Cunninghamella bainieri (ATCC 924...

Complex physalin metabolites present in the capsules of the fruit of Physalis angulata L. have been isolated and submitted to a series of assays of antimicrobial activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27853, Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 29213, S. aureus ATCC 25923, S. aureus ATCC 6538P, Neisseria gonorrhoeae ATCC 49226, Escherichia coli ATCC 8739; E. coli ATCC 25922, Candida albicans ATCC 1...

To overcome the burden of antimicrobial resistance, greater attention has been paid to activity screening from natural products. One such products used for therapeutic purposes is Alum. Besides, Ayurvedic Bhasma formulations have treatment various ailments thousands years all over world and widely in India. Hence, present vitro study, Alum as well its Bhasma- Sphatika was evaluated against tota...

The work reports antibacterial and antifungal activity of different solvent extracts of Origanum vulgare. The antimicrobial activity of methanol, chloroform and aqueous extracts were determined against nine different gram negative and gram positive bacterial strains and three fungal stains. The bacterial strains were Bacillus subtilis (ATCC 6633), Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 29213), Micrococcus...

A small Central Asian Noctuidae genus Palaeagrotis Hampson, 1907 is revised. One new species, P. adrienneae Volynkin, Gyulai & Behounek, sp. n. is described from South Mongolia. The lectotypes of Hadena inops Lederer, 1853 and Heterographa sibirica Staudinger, 1896 are designated. The adults, and the male and female genitalia are illustrated.
