exploration of natural products with antitumoral effects such as etoposide, tenioposide, camptothecin and paclitaxel from conifers provoked us to do some research on anti-tumoral activity of iranian medicinal plants. ten different species of iranian conifers aerial parts were collected across the country. the relative potency of methanolic extract were investigated on the inhibition of topoisom...

Background: This work evaluated the efficiency of common ultrasound stimulation (U.S.S) types on bacterial growth in vitro using clinically relevant conditions.Objective: To estimate different frequencies ultrasound bactericidal ability on bacteria in bacteria of Pseudomonas Aeruginosa. Methods: Six types of U.S.S (continuous wave, 7w/cm2, 20 KHz; continuous wave, 35w/0.8L, 40 KHz; continuous ...

a series of curcumin derivatives containing heterocyclic moiety have been synthesized and evaluated for their antibacterial activities. the chemical structures of the synthesized compounds were verified on the basis of spectral data and elemental analyses. investigation of antimicrobial activity of the derivatives demonstrated the ability to inhibit gram-positive microorganisms with zone of inh...

The antimicrobial effect of metal nanoparticles such as zinc oxide and silver nanoparticles has been taken into great consideration separately during recent years. The useful application of these nanoparticles in the areas of medicine, biotechnology, and professional prevention of microbes motivated us. The aim of this study was to evaluate antibacterial activity properties of silver doped zinc...

antibacterial effects of honeybee propolis tested on the paenibacillus larvae larvae, cause of honeybee american foulbrood disease. after cultivation of bacterium in special medium we used of two antibacterial susceptibility tests: broth dilution susceptibility test and paper disk susceptibility test. in the b.d.s.t 0.32 milligrams/ml and higher concentrations of propolis inhibited growth of th...

There are many reports about antifungal and antimicrobial effects of Myrtle extract. In respect to resistance of fungal strains to current antifungal drugs such as imidazole derivatives, a comparative study was carried out to Investigate the antifungal effect of Myrtle extract versus clotrimazole on candida albicans, the most common cause of vaginal candidiasis . The vaginal discharge of 500 pa...
