Regioselective pentanoylation of methyl 4,6-O-(4-methoxybenzylidene)-?-D-glucopyranoside by the direct acylation method provided the methyl 4,6-O-(4-methoxybenzylidene)-2-O-pentanoyl- ?-D-glucopyranoside in good yield. A number of 3-O-acyl derivatives of this 2-O-pentanoylation product were also prepared in order to obtain new compounds and also gather additional information for structure elucidation. The chemical structure of the newly synthesized compounds was characterized by analytical and spectral methods. Synthesized acylated derivatives of Dglucopyranoside were screened for in vitro antimicrobial activities against ten human pathogenic bacteria and four plant pathogenic fungi. The study revealed that the acylated products exhibited moderate to good antimicrobial activities. It was interesting to observe that the selected compounds were more sensitive against fungal phytopathogens than those of the bacterial strains.

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.

Aim: This study was aimed to investigate antimicrobial and cytotoxicity effect of nano ZnO in in vitro for the application of livestock feed supplement. Materials and Methods: Nano ZnO was synthesized by wet chemical precipitation method using zinc acetate as a precursor and sodium hydroxide was used for reducing the precursor salt. The properties of synthesized powder were characterized using ultraviolet (UV)–visible spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and X-ray diffraction (XRD), respectively. In vitro antimicrobial activities were analyzed against the pathogenic bacteria in poultry Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Streptococcus aeruginosa. 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide assay was conducted to analyze the cytotoxicity effect of nano ZnO. Results: SEM showed a spherical ZnO particle in the range of 70-100 nm. The size of the particle and purity of the sample were confirmed by XRD. The nano-sized ZnO particles exhibited the UV absorption peak at 335 nm. In FTIR spectroscopy, pure ZnO nanoparticles showed stretching vibrations at 4000-5000 cm-1. ZnO nanoparticles exhibited remarkable antibacterial activity against E. coli, S. aureus, K. pneumoniae, and S. aeruginosa bacterial strains. Cell viability was significantly reduced in a dose-dependent manner in the cytotoxicity study. Conclusion: From the broad-spectrum antibacterial activity and the lower cytotoxicity observed at the prescribed dose, it is concluded that nano ZnO powder is a potential alternate zinc supplement for livestock.

Myrothecium Roridum

As the unique component of Dendrobium, dendrobine-type sesquiterpenoid alkaloids (DSAs) possess a variety of medicinal properties. It has been well documented that plant endophytes can in vitro synthesize secondary metabolites identical or similar to metabolites produced by their host plants. This study aimed to investigate the composition and distribution of endophytic bacteria of Dendrobium stems by Illumina MiSeq platform sequencing and cultivation-dependent methods and then to assess the potential for endophytic bacteria to produce DSAs. Results indicated that it was necessary to combine both cultivation-dependent and cultivation-independent methods to analyze the community structure of endophytic bacterial in plants comprehensively. The length of the Dendrobium stems influenced the endophytic bacterial community. The diversity and richness of endophytic bacteria in group J10_15cm of stems were the highest, which showed a significant difference from the other stem groups. However, there was no certain connection between the diversity and richness of endophytic bacteria and the content of dendrobine. It was most likely due to the influence of several specific endophytic bacteria genera, such as Sphingomonas and Rhodococcus. Athelia rolfsii, Myrothecium roridum, as pathogenic fungi, and Pectobacterium carotovorum subsp. actinidiae, as pathogenic bacteria of Dendrobium, were used to determine the antimicrobial activities. In these assays, six strains belonging to five genera showed antimicrobial activity against at least two phytopathogens. The strain BL-YJ10_15-29 (Paracoccus pueri THG-N2.35, 98.98%) showed the best antimicrobial activity against the three phytopathogens. In addition, 2 DSAs (6-hydroxydendrobine and nobilonine) were identified in the fermentation supernatant of the strain CM-YJ10_15-44 (Pseudomonas protegens CHA0, 99.24%), whereas the whole-genome analysis results further demonstrated that the precursors of the two DSAs [geranyl-PP and (E, E)-famesyl-PP] were synthesized mainly through the methyl-D-erythritol 4-phosphate pathway in this strain. This study provides new insight into the studies on the biosynthesis of DSAs and provides potential biocontrol bacteria.

Antibacterial And Antifungal

The principal cause of human deaths in the world is primarily due to harmful pathogenic microbes as bacteria, a virus, and fungi. Searching for antimicrobial agents to prevent deaths with new structures and modes of action is an essential strategy of the research. Therefore, in the present study has been undertaken of thymidine and of its eleven acylated derivatives were employed as test chemicals for in vitro antibacterial evaluation against five human pathogenic bacteria. The compounds were also screened for antifungal functionality tests against two phytopathogenic fungi. It was observed that a good number of tested compounds exhibited moderate to good antimicrobial activities. It was also observed that these acylated compounds were more effective against the phytopathogenic fungi than those of the bacterial strains. Encouragingly, several tested chemicals showed better antibacterial and antifungal activities than the standard antibiotics employed. The minimum inhibition concentration (MIC) values of the compounds 3 (5´-O-butyrylthymidine), 7 (5´-O-palmitoylthymidine) and 12 (5´-O-4- dichloroacetylthymidine) were found to be 0.32 mg/ml and minimum bactericidal concentrations (MBC) values were found to be 0.63 mg /ml in each case. On the other hand, the minimum fungal concentration (MFC) was found to be (1.25 mg/ml) in the case of compound 7 (i.e., palmitoyl derivative) which may be used as antifungal active drug providing further investigation. In vitro MTT assays revealed that compounds 4 (5´-O-hexanoylthymidine) and 7 (5´-O-palmitoylthymidine) were effective against Ehrlich’s ascites carcinoma (EAC) cells and IC50 values were found to be 920.88 μg/ml and 792.90 μg/ml, respectively. So these compounds may be targeted for future studies for their usage as broad-spectrum antibiotics. J. Bio-Sci. 29(1): 11-22, 2021 (June)
