A series of new 5-(2,6-dichlorobenzylidene)thiazolidine-2,4-dione and 5-(4-methoxy-benzylidene)thiazolidine-2,4-dione derivatives (3a-h and 5a-h) were synthesized starting from 5-arylidene-thiazolidine-2,4-dione and ?-halo-ketones. The structural elucidation of the newly synthesized compounds was based on elemental analysis and spectroscopic data (MS, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR). The synthesized compounds were screened for their antimicrobial activities against several pathogenic strains of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria and one fungal strain (Candida albicans), assessed in vitro as growth inhibition diameters. Some of them displayed better inhibitory activities than that of the reference drug against the Gram-positive S. aureus, B. cereus, L. monocytogenes bacterial strains, and showed good antifungal activity against C. albicans, while the antibacterial activity against Gram-negative E. coli and S. typhimurium bacterial strains was moderate.

Two series of sulfonamides were synthesized from 4-hydrazinylbenzenesulfonamide as the key starting material. 1,3,5-Triarylpyrazoline sulfonamides (2a?i) were obtained by cyclocondensation of various chalcones in 53? ?64 % yields, while 4-thiazolidinone derivatives (4a?e) were synthesized by cyclocondensation between mercaptoacetic acid and different phenylhydrazones in 43?62 % yields. The synthesized compounds were characterized based on FTIR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR and HRMS data. The sulfonamides were evaluated for their in vitro antimicrobial activities against four bacterial strains (E. coli, P. aeruginosa, B. subtillis and S aureus), two filamentous fungal strains (A. niger and F. oxysporum) and two yeast strains (C. albicans and S. cerevisiae). Seven pyrazolines, 2a?c and 2e?h, exhibited significant inhibition of different microbial strains. Among them, compound 2b displayed good antifungal activity against A. niger (MIC value at 12.5 ?g mL-1) over the reference drug.

A new series of fluorinated sulfur inserted benzimidazole analogues Za-i were synthesized and characterized. The new compounds were screened for their antimicrobial and antioxidant potential. The synthesized compounds were obtained by multiple step synthesis, initiating from the synthesis of 5-(difluoromethoxy)-1H-benzimidazole-2-thiol X. The compounds Ya-i prepared by reacting differently substituted anilines with chloroacetylchloride and triethylamine in DMF. Finally, the compound X was reacted with different derivatives of 2-chloro-N-phenylacetamide resulting in formation of titled compounds Za-i. The synthesized compounds (Za-Zi) were characterized by spectral analysis viz.1H & 13C NMR, mass spectra, elemental analysis and IR. The in vitro antimicrobial potential against Gram-positive (S. aureus and E. faecalis) and Gram-negative bacterial (E. coli and P.aeruginosa) strains as well as fungi (A. niger and C. albicans) was recorded for the obtained compounds. Some of the compounds exhibited encouraging results (in MIC) against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial strains. These studies thus suggest that the designed sulfur inserted fluoro-benzimidazoles scaffold may serve as new promising template for further amplification as antimicrobial agents.

ABSTRACT Naturally occurring monoglyceride esters of fatty acids have been associated with a broad spectrum of antimicrobial activities. We used an automated turbidimetric method to measure the MIC and assess the antimicrobial activity of five monoglycerides (monocaprin, monolaurin, monomyristin, monopalmitin, and monostearin) against pathogenic strains of Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Escherichia coli. The antibacterial activity of monocaprin was highest because its carbon chain is shorter than those of other monoglycerides. The MICs of monocaprin against S. aureus, B. subtilis, P. aeruginosa, and E. coli were 0.32, 0.32, 2.5, and 2.5 mg/mL, respectively. Monocaprin had antibacterial activity under neutral and alkaline conditions (pH 7.0 to 9.0) but had no inhibitory effect on S. aureus, B. subtilis, and E. coli under weakly acidic conditions (pH 6.0). The antibacterial mechanism of monocaprin against gram-positive strains (S. aureus and B. subtilis) resulted from destruction of the cell membrane. In contrast, the antibacterial activity of monocaprin against gram-negative strains (P. aeruginosa and E. coli) was attributed to damage to lipopolysaccharides in the cell walls. Because of its inhibitory effect on both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, monocaprin could be used as an antibacterial additive in the food industry. HIGHLIGHTS

AbstractThe purpose of this work was to prepare Schiff base ligands containing quinoline moiety and using them for preparing Cu(ii) and Zn(ii) complexes. Four bidentate Schiff base ligands (SL1–SL4) with quinoline hydrazine scaffold and a series of mononuclear Cu(ii) and Zn(ii) complexes were successfully prepared and characterized. The in vitro antibacterial and antifungal potential experimentation revealed that the ligands exhibited moderate antibacterial activity against the Gram-positive bacterial types and were inactive against the Gram-negative bacteria and the fungus strains. The metal complexes showed some enhancement in the activity against the Gram-positive bacterial strains and were inactive against the Gram-negative bacteria and the fungus strains similar to the parent ligands. The complex [Cu(SL1)2] was the most toxic compound against both Gram-positive S. aureus and E. faecalis bacteria. The in silico physicochemical investigation revealed that the ligand SL4 showed highest in silico absorption (82.61%) and the two complexes [Cu(SL4)2] and [Zn(SL4)2] showed highest in silico absorption with 56.23% for both compounds. The in silico pharmacokinetics predictions showed that the ligands have high gastrointestinal (GI) absorption and the complexes showed low GI absorption. The ligands showed a good bioavailability score of 0.55 where the complexes showed moderate to poor bioavailability.

A novel series of ciprofloxacin hybrids comprising various heterocycle derivatives has been synthesized and structurally elucidated using 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and elementary analyses. Using ciprofloxacin as a reference, compounds 1–21 were screened in vitro against Gram-positive bacterial strains such as Staphylococcus aureus and Bacillus subtilis and Gram-negative strains such as Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. As a result, many of the compounds examined had antibacterial activity equivalent to ciprofloxacin against test bacteria. Compounds 2–6, oxadiazole derivatives, were found to have antibacterial activity that was 88 to 120% that of ciprofloxacin against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. The findings showed that none of the compounds tested had antifungal activity against Aspergillus flavus, but did have poor activity against Candida albicans, ranging from 23% to 33% of fluconazole, with compound 3 being the most active (33% of fluconazole). The most potent compounds, 3, 4, 5, and 6, displayed an IC50 of 86, 42, 92, and 180 nM against E. coli DNA gyrase, respectively (novobiocin, IC50 = 170 nM). Compounds 4, 5, and 6 showed IC50 values (1.47, 6.80, and 8.92 µM, respectively) against E. coli topo IV in comparison to novobiocin (IC50 = 11 µM).

The in vitro antibacterial assay was carried out against both Gram positive (B. cerus and S. aureus) and Gram negative (E. coli and K. pneumoniae) bacteria. Floral petals of 20 different species of plants were collected and tested for antibacterial activity. The result showed that the petals were active against both Gram positive and Gram negative. Out of 20 floral petals tested, 19 floral petals exhibited antibacterial activity against selected bacterial strains. The minimal inhibitory zone of floral petal discs against human pathogenic bacteria varies from 2 – 6 mm. Rosa carolina and Ruellia tuberosa showed significance inhibition zone for all the bacterial strains while Lantana camara does not show inhibition zone for any of these pathogenic bacteria.

The antimicrobial agents of bacteria isolated from different rhizosphere of fruits and vegetables soil in Lahore. Of ten species, five were gram-negative (Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas fluorescence, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Salmonella typhii, Brachybacterium faecium); other five were gram positive and identified as Bacillus farraginis, Kurthia gibsonii, Aureobacterium liquefaciens, Curtobacterium albidum, Micrococcus lylae. The antagonistic potential of bacterial strains was assessed by the well diffusion technique and results indicating varying degree of biocontrol activity against pathogenic strain of X. campestris. Out of ten bacterial species, E. coli (gram negative) and C. albidum (gram positive) showed a high prevalence of resistance with reduction of 4.2cm and 4.1cm zone diameter respectively. The minimum inhibitory volume (MIV) to two bio-agents was determined for X. campestris from range 10-100 ?L. E. coli (volume required to inhibit < 20 ?L) and C. albidum (volume required to inhibit < 40 ?L) exhibited good activity against pathogen. These results provide information on the prevalence of resistant bacterial strains with the MIV of organisms and indicate the possibility of using these bacterial species as bio-agent against X. campestris.Bangladesh J Microbiol, Volume 29, Number 1, June 2012, pp 37-40

Sequential extraction using a cold maceration method and column chromatographic separation of the roots Kniphofia insignis headed to the isolation of three anthraquinones: one monomeric anthraquinone (1) and two dimeric anthraquinones (2 and 3). It was further purified by Sephadex LH-20 and recrystallized. The structures of these compounds were established based on the spectroscopic analyses including NMR (1H-NMR and 13C-NMR and infrared) and comparison with reported literatures. In an in vitro antimicrobial assay of the crude extracts, the isolated compounds were made against four bacterial strains (S. aureus ATCC 25923, B. subtilis ATCC 6633, E. coli ATCC 35218, and P. aeruginosa ATCC 27853) and Fusarium spp. fungal strain. In the crude extracts of chloroform, substantial antimicrobial activity was seen with the highest activity against B. subtilis (16 mm) and E. coli (22 mm). Meanwhile, compound 1 has a better zone of inhibition with 14 mm against P. aeruginosa, whereas compound 2 showed better activity (13 mm) against Fusarium spp. fungal strain.
