The study is to weave the yarns of silver-plated fiber and photocatalyst fiber together to make 18 kinds of fabrics with different woven proportions and structures, and conduct antibacterial experiments on the fabrics with agar diffusion plate method. The experimental results show that for the strains of E.coli and Staphylococcus aureus, with the increasing woven proportion of silver-plated fiber and photocatalyst fiber, the width of inhibition zone grows; and in the condition of the same woven proportion of the two fibers, the plain weave fabric has the best antibacterial activity. And overall considering the antibacterial activity, cost and safety of the fabric, the plain weave fabric with 12.5% distribution ratio of silver-plated fiber is the optimal antibacterial fabric among the 18 samples.

The most common skin disorder is acne (Acne vulgaris) which is a chronic inflammatory disease that occurs in the pilosebaceous unit. Infection can be caused by Propionibacterium acnes and Staphylococcus aureus. Moringa leaves are known to inhibit acne growth. Piper crocatum leaves are also thought to have antibacterial activity. The study aims to determine the effect of the combination of the two extracts in inhibiting the growth of acne-causing bacteria, also tested the gel formula to meet physical and chemical parameters as well as stability to temperature and storage, also to test the acute dermal irritation against rabbit. Each extract with a concentration of 0.3%; 0.6%; 1.25%; 2.5%; 5%; 10%; 20%, incubated then measured the inhibition zone, then determined the minimum inhibition zone concentration of the two extracts to determine the lowest levels of the extracts which still gave antibacterial activity against the tested bacteria by the well diffusion method. The extract combination was formulated in a gel preparation with the excipients Carbopol 940, PG, Phenoxyethanol, TEA, CMC, and Aquadest. Antibacterial activity test for gel preparations used the well method with positive control Medi-Klin® gel. Then the formula evaluation includes physical, chemical, and microbiological evaluations. The results showed that the combination gel form had activity against P. acne and S. aureus at concentrations of 2.5% : 2.5%. The combination gel preparation of the two extracts also has synergistic effect in inhibiting acne bacteria. The formula can meet physical and chemical parameters and is stable to temperature and storage.

This work was designed to evaluate the antibacterial activity of one novel leather material treated with bactericides. The growth of bacteria species such as colibacillus and staphylococcus aureus were measured by the diameter of inhibition zone. The results showed that glutaraldehyde exhibits an antibacterial activity against colibacillus and staphylococcus aureus. Besides, it also is testified that 2-Octyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one was an excellent bactericidal agents to staphylococcus aureus, instead of colibacillus. The concentrations of tea saponin and sodium above 0.05mg/L, the growth of bacteria was restrained. In addition, compared with single of bactericidal agents, the mixture of two bactericidal agents showed much better antibacterial activity. Among these antimicrobial agents, the mxture of 2-Octyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one and glutaraldehyde were of great potential in application.

Schiff bases derivatives are one of the most important compounds that have been used in many biological applications such as antimicrobial activity. Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus are two of the most important pathogenic bacteria that cause wound infection in Iraq and many developing countries. This research involves a synthesis of some Schiff bases compounds [A1 – A3] that were prepared from the condensation of [4- chlorobenzaldehyde, 4-bromobenzaldehyde, and 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde] in absolute ethanol. All of these compounds are characterized by [FTIR] spectroscopy. The antibacterial activity test was done according to agar well diffusion method for all derivative compounds with a concentration of 100 mg/ml and 200 mg/ml for each compound. The derivative compound A3 with a concentration of 200 mg/ml had an excellent antibacterial effect against Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus with a diameter of inhibition zone of 18.417 ± 0.54645 and 16.000 ± 0.57735, respectively. Schiff bases derivatives synthesis compounds in this study (A1 and A2) can be considered as suitable antibacterial materials and can be used as raw materials to the synthesis of new ointment.

Herein the synthesis of a series of novel 8-(1- alkyl/alkylsulphonyl/alkoxycarbonyl-benzimidazol-2-ylmethoxy)-5- chloroquinoline derivatives is reported. These derivatives were prepared by the condensation of o-phenylenediamine with [(5-chloroquinolin-8- yl)oxy]acetic acid, followed by substitution at nitrogen with different electrophilic reagents in presence of an appropriate base to give a series of nitrogen heterocycles containing the benzimidazole and quinoline nuclei. The structures of the compounds were confirmed based on 1H-NMR, 13CNMR, IR and mass spectral data. Almost all the compounds exhibited promising antibacterial activity against Salmonella typhimurium and Staphylococcus aureus. Some of the compounds showed good antifungal activities against Aspergillus niger but the antifungal activities against Candida albicans were disappointing.
