A new series of 2-hydrazone-thiazoline-4-ones 3a-d and 2-hydrazone-5arylidene-thiazoline-4-ones 4a-h, 5a-f and 6a-b were synthesized starting from various thiosemicarbazones by the Hantzsch condensation with chloroacetic acid. The newly synthesized compounds were screened for their antimicrobial activity against 4 strains of bacteria: Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 29213), Bacillus subtilis (ATCC ...

Purpose: To evaluate the antimicrobial and antibiofilm activity of A. lakoocha extract against oral pathogens by an in vitro method. Methods: The dried powder of the aqueous extract of A. lakoocha was purchased from a Thai traditional drug store. Representative strains of oral pathogens (Streptococcus mutans ATCC 25175, Streptococcus sobrinus ATCC 33478, Enterococcus faecalis ATCC 19433, Lactob...

Thraustochytrids are unicellular, marine protists, and there is a growing industrial interest in these organisms, particularly because some species, including strains belonging to the genus Aurantiochytrium, accumulate high levels of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). Here, we report the draft genome sequence of Aurantiochytrium sp. T66 (ATCC PRA-276), with a size of 43 Mbp, and 11,683 predicted prote...

The present study examines the possible antibacterial mechanism of action of the essential oil obtained from Chamaecyparis obtusa (COEO) sawdust against foodborne pathogenic bacteria. The COEO was obtained by microwave-assisted hydrodistillation of C. obtusa sawdust. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) and minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) values of COEO against the tested foodbor...

Linear, dimeric, tetrameric, and cyclic peptides derived from lactoferricin B-containing non-natural amino acids and the RWQWR motif were synthesized, purified, and characterized using RP-HPLC, MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry, and circular dichroism. The antibacterial activity of peptides against Escherichia coli ATCC 11775, Stenotrophomonas maltophilia ATCC 13636, and Salmonella enteritidis ATCC 1...

By creating mutations in the Burkholderia mallei ATCC 23344 animal pathogen-like type III secretion system (TTSS), this study analyzes the correlation between type III secretion and the pathogenicity of ATCC 23344 in vivo. Mutagenesis demonstrated that a functional TTSS was required for the full pathogenicity of ATCC 23344 in the BALB/c mouse and Syrian hamster models of infection. However, vac...

The standardized disk diffusion test, in which a 10-micrograms enoxacin disk is used, was performed and microbroth dilution MICs were determined to establish individual test control values with Escherichia coli ATCC 25922, Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27853, Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923, and S. aureus ATCC 29213. In addition, regression analysis correlating inhibitory zone diameter with MICs...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate physico-chemical properties and antimicrobial potential of indigenous honey samples against different reference strains including Escherichia coli ATCC 8739, Enterobacter aerogenes ATCC 13048, Pseudomonas aeroginosa ATCC 9027, Bacillus subtilis ATCC 6633, Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25923, Salmonella typhi ATCC 14028, Klebsiella pneumonia ATCC 13883, Aspergillus niger ATCC ...
