magnesium oxide nanoparticles (MgO NPs) were prepared by simple wet chemical method using different calcination temperatures. The prepared NPs were characterized by Electrostatic Discharge (ESD), Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and X-ray Diffraction (XRD). It demonstrates sharp intensive peak with the increase of crystallinty and increase of the size with varying morphologies with respect to increase of calcination temperature. Antibacterial studies were done on gram negative bacteria (E.coli) and gram positive bacteria (S.aureus) by agar disc diffusion method. The zones of inhibitions were found larger for gram positive bacteria than gram negative bacteria, this mean, antibacterial MgO NPs activity more active on gram positive bacteria than gram negative bacteria because of the structural differences. It was found that antibacterial activity of MgO NPs was found it has directly proportional with their concentration.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to synthesize some new azobenzene dyestuffs clubbed with thiazolidinone moiety and their solicitation in dyeing polyester fabrics representing their antibacterial evaluation. Design/methodology/approach Herein, the authors report the synthesis of new thiazolidinone moiety after the coupling of diazotized 4-aminoacetophenone with resorcinol. The newly synthesized dyes were characterized by IR, elemental analysis, mass spectroscopy and proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR) spectral studies. The characteristics of dyeing of these dyestuffs were evaluated at optimum conditions. Concurrent with dyeing of polyester fabric for synthesized dyes with their antibacterial activity was estimated. Antimicrobial activity of the dyed fabrics at different concentrations was evaluated against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. Findings Synthesized azobenzene dyestuffs clubbed with thiazolidinone dyes were applied on polyester fabrics. It was remarked that the modified dyes exhibited better colourfastness properties. Furthermore, the synthesized dyes revealed antimicrobial activity against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. Research limitations/implications The synthesized azobenzene dyes for polyester dyeing were not bore earlier. Practical implications The azobenzene dyes were accountable for giving improved colourfastness properties on polyester fabrics. Social implications The synthesized azobenzene derivatives are sensibly expensive and applicable dyes accompanied with good antimicrobial and anticancer activities. Originality/value A common process could be affording textiles of colour and antibacterial assets. The newly synthesized dyes containing thiazolidinone moieties with azobenzene coupler showed interesting disperse colourant for polyester with good antibacterial activity.

Abstract Amphibians, like some animals and plants, defend themselves against various pathogenic organisms by producing and secreting various peptides and small molecules from granular skin glands. In this study, we evaluated for the first time, the antibiotic activity of the skin secretions of 8 different frog species (Euphlyctis cyanophlyctis, E. hexadactylus, Fejervarya teraiensis, F. asmati, F. syhadrensis, Hoplobatrachus tigerinus, Microhyla ornata and Polypedates leucomystax) from Bangladesh. These secretions were collected by a nonlethal approach through chemical stimulation and the antibacterial activity was evaluated by broth macrodilution method against some Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Our study revealed that all the skin secretions (8 out of 8) from the selected frogs have antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive bacteria and 7 out of 8 skin secretions possess antibacterial activity against Gram-negative bacteria tested. Further analysis of data showed that these secretions are significantly more effective against Gram-positive bacteria than Gram-negative bacteria.

Polyaniline(PANI) doped by natural acid(citric acid, salicylic acid or rosin acid)solutions was synthesized using aniline as monomer and ammonium peroxydisulfate ((NH4)2S2O8) as oxidant. The antibacterial activities of the PANI against Gram positive bacteria(Bacillus megatherium, Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus cereus and Staphylo-coccus aureus) and Gram negative bacteria(Bacillus coli) were investigated. It was shown that PANI doped by citric acid possessed the better antibacterial activity against the selected species of Gram positive bacteria and Gram negative bacteria than PANI doped by rosin acid. PANI doped by salicylic acid exhibited ascendant antibacterial activities against Gram positive bacteria, but it has little antibacterial activity against the Gram negative bacteria.

Wide range of plant extracts are used for medicinal purposes as they are very cheap, efficient, harmless and do not cause any side effects. Spices are parts of different plants and they add special aroma and taste to the food preparations. The aim of the study was to determine the antimicrobial activity of some important naturally grown spices against gram positive and gram negative pathogenic bacteria. Antibacterial activity of the spices was tested against gram positive bacteria Bacillus pumilus, Bacillus cereus and Staphylococcus aureus and gram negative bacteria Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhi and Pseudomonas aeruginosa using aqueous, ethanolic, methanolic and liquid nutrient extracts. Among all the extracts tested alcoholic extracts of Cardamom (Elettaria cardamom), clove (Eugenia caryophyllus) and lemongrass (Cymbopogoncitratus) showed maximum antimicrobial activity against gram negative bacteria while alcoholic extract of Cardamom (Elettaria cardamom) and lemongrass (Cymbopogoncitratus) showed maximum activity against gram positive bacteria. All the spices tested in this study proved that they have antibacterial activity and the maximum activity index (1.39) was exhibited by the ethanol extract of cardamom against E.coli.

In the current study, a series of piperine – piperazine analogues (5a to 5f) were designed and synthesized. The piperine was isolated from pepper and used for the conjugation with heterocyclic moiety for better biological activity. The piperazine heterocyclic was chosen for conjugation with piperine. The newly synthesized structures were determined by IR, 1H NMR and 13C NMR spectral data. The compounds were examined for their anti‐microbial activity against gram-positive (Bacillus subtilis) and gram-negative (Vibrio cholerae) bacteria using the agar well diffusion method. The newly synthesized compounds exhibited capable activities against V. cholerae and B. subtilis and it showed minimum inhibitory concentration. Among all the synthesized compounds, 5f has the highest activity (26 mm) against gram-positive bacteria and (29mm) against gram-negative bacteria. The remaining compounds showed appreciable antibacterial activity. The enhanced activity of the synthesized compounds may be due to the presence of conjugated amide linkage with the natural product piperine and piperazine heterocyclic molecule. The substituents present on the aromatic (nitro-substituted) ring also influenced the activity of the compound.
