Callophylum symingtonianum (Guttiferae), an evergreen broad-leaved tree that usually grows in hill forests, can be found distributed in the Malay Peninsula. The barks, leaves, flowers and seeds is often used medicinally to treat diarrhea and rheumatism. In the present study, we isolated two inophyllum type coumarins, 12-O-ethylinophyllum D (1) and iso-soulattrolide (2) from the stembarks of C. symingtonianum together with their antibacterial activity. The compounds were isolated by chromatographic methods on a silica gel. The structures were established by spectroscopic methods including UV, IR, (1D and 2D) NMR and mass spectrometry as well as by comparison with several literature sources. The antibacterial activity of those compounds was tested using a disc-diffusion assay against Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus cereus, Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Both compound exhibited mild inhibition against P. aeruginosa with both $111{\mu}g/ml$ MIC value. Compound 2 also inhibits S. aureus with $25{\mu}g/ml$ MIC value.

A series of azole-containing piperazine derivatives have been designed and synthesized. The obtained compounds were investigated in vitro for their antibacterial, antifungal and cytotoxic activities. The preliminary results showed that most compounds exhibited moderate to significant antibacterial and antifungal activities in vitro. 1-(4-((4-chlorophenyl) (phenyl)methyl)piperazin-1-yl)-2-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)ethanone and 1-(4-((4-Chlorophenyl)(phenyl)methyl)piperazin-1-yl)-2-(2-phenyl-1H-imidazol-1-yl)ethanone gave remarkable and broad-spectrum antimicrobial efficacy against all tested strains with MIC values ranging from 3.1 to $25\;{\mu}g/mL$, and exhibited comparable activities to the standard drugs chloramphenicol and fluconazole in clinic. Moreover, 2-((4-((4-chlorophenyl)(phenyl)methyl)piperazin-1-yl)methyl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazole was found to be the most effective in vitro against the PC-3 cell line, reaching growth inhibition values (36.4, 60.1 and 76.5%) for each tested concentration: $25\;{\mu}g/mL$, $50\;{\mu}g/mL$ and $100\;{\mu}g/mL$ in dose-dependent manner. The results also showed that the azole ring had noticeable effect on their antimicrobial and cytotoxic activities, and imidazole and benzimidazole moiety were much more favourable to biological activity than 1,2,4-triazole.

Garlic(Allium sativum L.) is one of the oldest cultivated plants and has been used throughout the world as food supplement and folk medicine for thousands of years. In modem times a number of garlic derived products are introduced on the market as health food supplement in ever growing scale. In 1844 German chemist Wertheim investigated the garlic first time chemically and thereafter many kinds of organosulfur compounds were isolated and their biological activities were elucidated scientifically. The main biological activities are antibacterial, antifungal, antithrombotic, cholesterol-lowering, antineoplastic and hepatoprotective activities. Chemical works as well as therapeutic and preventive effects of garlic are reviewed.

Eucalyptus is a rich source of biologically active compounds. Among these, phloroglucinol compounds such as sideroxylonals, macrocarpals, euglobals, and robustadials are unique to Eucalyptus species. Sideroxylonal A is a very potent attachment-inhibitor. Macrocarpals show very strong antibacterial activity against gram positive bacteria. Macrocarpals also show HIV-RTase inhibitory activity. Euglobals are potent inhibitors of Epstein-Barr virus activation and are developed as skin and antitumor agents. They also show granulation inhibitory activity. In this review we aim to remove the existing confusion in literature on macrocarpals and discuss the biological activities and structure-activity relationships of phloroglucinol compounds.

Twelve different derivatives were synthesised from chitin/chitosan[1, 2, 3]. Their structures have been determined by different physical methods. The bioassay screening on antifungal and antibacterial activities of all these compounds showed that most of them had significant activity and they can inhibite the growth of some fungi and bacterias : E. coli, S. pyogenes, F. oxysporum, P. oryzae, that caused the spoilage of fresh fruits and foods. Furthermore, all of these compounds are non-toxic (LD$\_$50/>50g/kg) and can be applied for food preservation.

Syntheses of cefotaxime analogs with halosubstituted phenyltetrazolthiomethyl at the $C_{3^-}$position are described. Their in vitro potency was established. The compounds exhibited a broad antibacterial spectrum. Some of these compounds showed activity against Gram-positive bacteria superior to the parent cefotaxime. Against Gram-negative bacteria, these compounds are less effective than cefotaxime.

Objective: The aim of this work is to investigate the antibacterial activity of the essential oil obtained from Artemisia lavandulaefolia (A. lavandulaefolia), as the development of microbial resistance to antibiotics make it essential to constantly look for new and active compounds effective against pathogenic bacteria. Method: The aerial parts of A. lavandulaefolia (1 kg) were subjected to steam distillation for 3 h, using a modified Clevenger type apparatus in order to obtain essential oil. Diethyl ether was the extracting solvent kept at 25?. The essential oil were analyzed by gas chromatography (GC) and gas chromatography／mass spectrometry (GC／MS). The essential oil and the composition were tested for antimicrobial activities against 15 different genera of oral bacteria. Ninety-nine compounds accounting for 94.74$\%$<／TEX> of the oil were identified. The main compounds in the oil were 1,8-cineole (5.63$\%$), yomogi alcohol (4.49$\%$), camphor (4.92$\%$), a-caryophyllene (16.10$\%$), trans-a-famesene (5.09$\%$), a-terpineol (3.91$\%$), borneol (5.27$\%$), cis-chrysanthenol (6.98$\%$), and a-humulene oxide (3.33$\%$). The essential oil and its compounds were tested for antimicrobial activity against 10 different genera of oral bacteria. Conclusion: The essential oil of A. lavandulaefolia exhibited considerable inhibitory effects against all obligate anaerobic bacteria (MICs, 0.025 - 0.05 ㎎／ml) tested, while their major compounds demonstrated various degrees of growth inhibition

The synthesis of title compounds were accomplished by synthetic sequence shown in Scheme 1. Chalcones on cyclocondensation with thiourea in ethanol and potassium hydroxide under reflux yielded the respective dihydropyramidin-2(1H)-thiones. Each of the dihydropyrimidin thiones was, then subjected to the Mannich condensation in alkaline medium using three different secondary amines, viz., dimethylamine, diethylamine and morpholine to obtain a new series of S-Mannich bases. All the synthesised compounds ($C_1-C_{15}$) were evaluated for their antiulcer and antibacterial activities. Compounds $C_4$, $C_5$, $C_6$, $C_{14}$ and $C_{15}$ exhibited relatively more potent antiulcer activity but not comparable to the standard; Omeprazole, while $C_1$, $C_2$, $C_3$ and $C_{13}$ were moderate in activity at 100 mg/kg p.o. All the compounds ($C_1-C_{15}$) showed mild to moderate activity against both Gram-positive (S.aureus, L.delbrueckii) and Gram-negative (P.vulgaris, E.coli) bacteria. Amongst the compounds tested, only $C_6$, $C_9$, $C_{12}$ and $C_{15}$ were found to be potent.

애완견의 털에 부착되어 있는 세균을 분리 동정한 후, 이 분리 세균들에 대한 항세균효과가 있는 생약재 추출물을 탐색하였다. 애완견의 털에서 76개의 세균을 분리한 결과, Staphylococcus속이 41균주로 가장 많았으며 그 다음으로 Micrococcus속이 21균 주, Enterococcus속이 8균주, Bacillus속이 3균주, Exiguobacterium속 of 2균주, Shigella속과 Zoogloea속이 각각 1균주씩으로 동정되었다. 이러한 결과는 개의 털에 존재하는 세균들이 사람에게 감염을 일으킬 수 있는 원인이 될 수 있음을 시사한다. 분리균주들에 대한 항생제 저항성과 생약재 추출물의 항세균 활성은 디스크 확산법으로 확인하였다. 황금의 추출물이 애완견의 털로부터 분리한 세균들에 대해 높은 항세균 활성을 나타내어 항생제 저항성이 있는 세균들에 대한 새로운 항미생물제로 사용학 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
