Fourteen esters of thymol and carvacrol were synthesized and characterized on the basis of spectral data. The NMR data for some of these are being given for the first time. The antibacterial activity screening of thymol, carvacrol and their esters were carried out against four Gram-positive (Streptococcus mutans MTCC 890, Staphylococcus aureus MTCC 96, Bacillus subtilis MTCC 121, Staphylococcus...

carvacrol is one of the main components of the eo of some labiatae (laminaceae) members like oregano, thyme and savory. carvacrol has a lot of health benefits for example, antibacterial, and antioxidant activity.we synthesized some silicon derivatives of carvacrol, and characterized them by standard methods. then the monomer of dimethylvinylsilyl carvacrol was synthesized. copolymer of this mon...

OBJECTIVE The increasing prevalence of antibiotic-resistant bacterial infections led to identify alternative strategies for a novel therapeutic approach. In this study, we synthesized ten carvacrol codrugs - obtained linking the carvacrol hydroxyl group to the carboxyl moiety of sulphur-containing amino acids via an ester bond - to develop novel compounds with improved antimicrobial and antibio...

Natural derivatives, such as essential oils, are presented an alternative to classical biocides the treatment of biocolonization. Thus, in this work, cleaning and biocidal potential some natural derivatives towards two biofilms’ growth on same granite wall, with different microbial composition, was evaluated. For purpose, three oils (EOs) (from Origanum vulgare, Thymus vulgaris Calamintha nepet...

Biofilm formation causes persistent contamination of spoilage microorganisms, leading to serious economic losses in the aquatic processing industry. The antibacterial and anti-biofilm activity ten carvacrol, cinnamaldehyde, derivatives against two fish spoilers, Pseudomonas fluorescens Aeromonas salmonicida, were evaluated by minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC), crystal violet staining, exop...

BACKGROUND Candida-associated denture stomatitis is a frequent infectious disease. Treatment of this oral condition is difficult because failures and recurrences are common. The aim of this study was to test the in vitro antifungal activity of pure constituents of essentials oils. METHODS Eight terpenic derivatives (carvacrol, farnesol, geraniol, linalool, menthol, menthone, terpinen-4-ol, an...
