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).

The chemical composition of the essential oils obtained from two samples (GP1 and GP2) of Grammosciadium platycarpum Boiss. was analyzed by GC and GC-MS. The analysis of the oils resulted in the identification of twenty-two constituents. Linalool (79.0% - GP1, 81.8% - GP2) and limonene (10.0%, 5.8%) were found to be the major components, respectively. The in vitro antibacterial activities of these oils and their main compounds against seven Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria were investigated. The results exhibited that the total oils and their major components possess strong to moderate activities against all the tested bacteria except for Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

The chemical constituents of the essential oil obtained by hydrodistillation from the leaves of Calycolpus moritzianus (O. Berg) Burret, syn Psidium caudatum Mc Vaught, collected in November 2006 in Mérida State, Venezuela, were identified by GC-MS analysis. Thirty components (91.1% of the sample) were identified, of which the seven major ones were β-caryophyllene (21.9%), α-pinene (10.9%), viridiflorol (9.7%), β-selinene (6.1%), α-copaene (6.3%), α-selinene (5.3%) and γ-eudesmol (5.1%). The oil was found to have antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus ATCC (6538) and Enterococcus faecalis ATCC (29212), with MIC values of 60 μg/mL and 180 μg/mL, respectively.

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.

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.

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.
