Antibacterial and antifungal activity was investigated for strains of Acidovorax spp., Burkholderia spp., Herbaspirillum rubrisubalbicans and Ralstonia solanacearum; strains representing 118 species and pathovars of Xanthomonas were also tested for phytotoxic capacity. Antibacterial activity was present in all Burkholderia spp. except B. andropogonis, in biovars II and III of R. solanacearum bu...

A new series of quinoline derivatives incorporated to glycosides and biologically active heterocyclic moieties were synthesized starting with 6-bromo-4-hydroxyquinaldine (6-bromo-4-hydroxy-2-methylquinoline) compound 1. Some of the synthesized compounds were evaluated for their antibacterial and antifungal activities. Most of the tested compounds exhibited potential antibacterial activity again...

Invitro antibacterial and antifungal activities of methanolic extract of osbeckia wynaadensis was evaluated in the present study for the first time by disc diffusion method using five bacterial strains (S. pneumonia, B.cereus, A. hydrophila , V. cholera and MRSA) and five fungal strains (Candida albicans, Aspergillus niger, Streptomysis Greusis, M. purpureus and Aspergillus fumigate) respective...

Antifungal and antibacterial activity of some heterocystous cyanobacteria from paddy-fields in the north of Iran was studied. Soil samples were collected from paddy-fields of Gillan, Mazandaran and Golestan Provinces and cyanobacteria were isolated. Supernatants, methanolic and hexane extracts from biomass of 150 strains of cyanobacteria were isolated and screened against six strains of bacteri...

spiro-4- thiazolidinones have been synthesized by the cyclocondensation of phthalazinyl hydrazones with cyclic ketones and substituted mercapto acetic acids. compounds were screened for their antibacterial, antifungal and antihypertensive activity. the combined elemental analyses and spectroscopic data prove the authenticity of the synthesized compounds

White spot lesions are observed in nearly 50% of patients undergoing orthodontic treatment. Long-lasting antibacterial properties of orthodontic cements can reduce this phenomenon. The aim of this research was to compare antimicrobial activity of three commercial glass ionomer cements with three commercial zinc phosphate cements, over time, against streptococcus mutans and candida albicans. Dir...

2- Methylsulfonyl - 5- (1-methyl-5-nitro- 2 – imidazolyl ) 1,3,4 - thiadiazole ( 1 ) was prepared by twa independent routes.1) reaction of 1-methyl-2-formyl-5- nitroimidazole (3) with methyl hydrazinecarbodithioate gave the hydrazone 4. Reaction of compound 4 with acetic anhydride followed by potassium permanganate oxidation of the intermediate 5 gave the desired compound 1. 2) React...
