Antibacterial Evaluation

Zinc(II) chloride was reacted with some 1-benzylbenzimidazole derivatives (L) to give complexes of the formula ZnL2Cl2. All the ligands and their zinc(II) complexes were evaluated for their in vitro antibacterial activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Bacillus cereus, Staphylococcus aureus and Sarcina lutea. Themajority of the investigated compounds displayed in vitro antimicrobial activity against very persistent microorganisms. It was found that all the tested compounds were more active against gram-positive than gram-negative bacteria. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) was determined for all ligands and their complexes. The effect of the structure of the ligands and complexes on the antimicrobial activity is discussed. The complexes were found to be more toxic than the ligands.

Essential oils from Calamintha umbrosa and Nepeta species viz. N. leucophylla; N. hindostana; N. ciliaris and N. clarkei (family Lamiaceae), was tested against six bacterial strains. To evaluate the correlation between the antimicrobial activity and the essential oils, PCA and HCA analysis was done. PCA and HCA analysis of the antibacterial activity revealed that essential oils of Nepeta species had a strong and broad spectrum antibacterial effect against bacterial strains of P. aeruginosa and S. scandidus. The N. leucophylla oil showed higher activity against Gram-negative bacteria P. aeruginosa (10.5 mm, MIC 10 µL/mL) and K. pneumonia (9.1 mm, MIC 45 µL/mL) among all Nepeta oils which may be due to presence of active antimicrobial iridoids compounds.

The hydrolytic products (S-MorH+2)2 [Ni(dtp)2]2− and (O-MorH+2)2[Ni(dtp)2]2− were characterized by means of FT-IR, 1H, and 31P NMR and XRD and the experimented P–N cleavage investigated and elucidated by means of DFT calculations. The antimicrobial activity of the neutral nickel complex [Ni(S-Mor-adtp)2] was tested against a set of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria alongside with its nanodispersion in a silica matrix. The complex [Ni(S-Mor-adtp)2] did not show antibacterial activity, whilst the nano-dispersed sample [Ni(S-Mor-adtp)2]_SiO2 demonstrated inhibition to growth of Staphylococcus aureus. The nanocomposites were fully characterized by means of XRPD, TGA, SEM and dinitrogen sorption techniques.

Chemical constituents of the essential oil from the leaves of Minthostachys mollis (Kunth) Griseb Vaught var. mollis collected in January 2008 at Tuñame, Trujillo State, Venezuela, were separated and identified by GCMS analysis. The essential oil was obtained by hydrodistillation and thirteen components (98.5% of the sample) were identified by comparison with the Wiley GCMS library data base. The two major components were pulegone (55.2%) and trans-menthone (31.5%). The essential oil showed a significant inhibitory effect against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, especially Bacillus subtilis and Salmonella typhi (4 μg/mL).

Berberine sulfate was shown to possess antimicrobial activity against a wide variety of microorganisms including Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, fungi, and protozoa. The antibacterial activity against Vibrio cholerae and Staphylococcus aureus was dependent on the inoculum size of the test organism and pH of the medium. A method of microbiological assay sensitive to 5–10 μg/ml of the drug was developed. The drug was shown to exert a more rapid antibacterial activity than chloramphenicol and tetracycline on V. cholerae, the K values being 2.4 ×10−2 sec−1, 7.8 × 10−3 sec−1, and 5.2 × 10−3 sec−1 respectively. Berberine sulfate was shown to be bacteriocidal to V. cholerae and bacteriostatic to S. aureus, at concentrations of 35 and 50 μg/ml. In both these organisms concentrations of 35 and 50 μg/ml of the drug inhibited ribonucleic acid (RNA) and protein synthesis almost immediately after the addition of the drug. There was little effect on deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) synthesis at these concentrations.

Background:Several strategies have been reported for the synthesis of thiazole derivatives.Methods:However, many of these methods suffer from several drawbacks. Several modifications have been made to counter these problems. Here, we have synthesized a new series of 2-(2-((1HImidazol- 4-yl)methylene)hydrazinyl)-4-(4-substitutedphenyl)thiazoles without using the catalyst at room temperature.Results:The structures of synthesized compounds have been confirmed by spectral analysis, such as Mass, IR, 1H NMR and 13C NMR. All synthesized compounds were screened for in vitro antibacterial activity against some gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria.Conclusion:The thiazole derivatives, with a pharmacologically potent group, discussed in this article may provide valued therapeutic important in the treatment of microbial diseases, especially against bacterial and fungal infections.

A new series of diisopropyloxytin- and triorganotin(IV) complexes of H2hbgl (1) of the general formula Sn(OPri)2(hbgl) (2), Sn(OPri)2(Hhbgl)2 (3), Ph3Sn(Hhbgl) (4), Bu3Sn(Hhbgl) (5) and Me3Sn(Hhbgl) (6), [where H2hbgl= a ligand of thymol derivative namely, N-(2-hydroxy-3-isopropyl-6-methyl benzyl)Glycine] were synthesized by reacting tin- and triorganotin(IV) chloride with the ligand, with the aid of sodium iso-propoxide in appropriate stiochiometric ratios (1:1 and 1:2). These complexes were characterized by elemental analysis, IR, 1H nuclear magnetic resonance. The spectral data suggest that the carboxylate group, in complexes 2-5, was bonded in a bidentate manner, while a unidentate bonding was observed in complex 6. All five complexes were tested in vitro for their antibacterial activity against Gram-positive bacteria namely, Staphylococcus aureus MTCC 96, Bacillus subtilis MTCC 121 and two Gram-negative bacteria namely, Escherichia coli MTCC 1652 and Pseudomonas aeruginosa MTCC 741. All the five complexes were also tested against three pathogenic fungal strains namely, Aspergillus niger, A. flavus and Penicillium sp.

ABSTRACT The in vitro activities of DX-619, des-fluoro(6) quinolone, against 1,208 clinical isolates were examined. DX-619 was particularly potent against staphylococci, including ciprofloxacin- and methicillin-resistant strains; the MIC at which 90% of the strains tested were inhibited was 0.5 μg/ml. In addition, DX-619 was also active against gram-negative bacteria.
