Abstract Background Sulfonamides (sulfa drugs) and the metals like mercury, copper, and silver bear antimicrobial properties. The discovery of broad-spectrum antibiotics such as penicillins, cephalosporins, and fluoroquinolones has reduced their use. However, in some instances these drugs are the first-line treatment. The metal-based sulfonamide (e.g., silver sulfadiazine) is considered as first choice treatment in post-burn therapy while the use of silver nanoparticle-cephalexin conjugate to cure Escherichia coli infection explains the synergistic effect of sulfa drugs and their metal conjugates. With growing interest in metal-based sulfonamides and the Schiff base chemistry, it was decided to synthesize sulfonamide Schiff base metal complexes as antioxidant and antimicrobial agent. Results The Fe (III), Ru (III), Co (II), Ni (II), Cu (II), Pd (II), Zn (II), Cd (II), and Hg (II) metal complexes of 4-((thiophen-2-ylmethylene)-amino)-benzenesulfonamide (TMABS) were prepared and studied for thermal stability, geometry, and other electronic properties. The ligand TMABS (Schiff base) and its metal complexes were screened in-vitro for 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical scavenging and antimicrobial properties against Gram-positive (+ve) Bacillus subtilis (MTCC-441), Staphylococcus aureus (MTCC 7443), Gram-negative (-ve) Escherichia coli (MTCC 40), Salmonella typhi (MTCC 3231), and fungal strains Aspergillus niger (MTCC-1344) and Penicillium rubrum by agar well diffusion method. Results summarized in Tables 3, 4, and 5 represent the inhibitory concentration (IC50) in micromole (μM). The zone of inhibition (ZI) in millimeter (mm) represents antimicrobial properties of TMABS and its metal complexes. Conclusions The synthesized sulfanilamide Schiff base (TMABS) behaved as a neutral and bidentate ligand coordinating with metal ions through its azomethine nitrogen and thiophene sulfur to give complexes with coordination number of 4 and 6 (Fig. 3). The nucleophilic addition of sulfanilamide amino group (–NH2) group to carbonyl carbon (>C=O) of benzaldehyde gave sulfanilamide Schiff base (imine) (Fig. 2). All the metal complexes were colored and stable at room temperature. With IC50 of 9.5 ± 0.1 and 10.0 ± 0.7 μM, the Co, Cu, and Pd complexes appeared better antioxidant than the ligand TMABS (155.3±0.1 μM). The zone of inhibition (ZI) of Hg (28 mm) and Ru complexes (20 mm) were similar to the ligand TMABS (20 mm) against Aspergillus niger (MTCC-1344) as in Figs. 4, 5, and 6. None of the synthesized derivatives had shown better antimicrobial properties than the standard streptomycin sulfate and fluconazole.

Tibouchina granulosa is a species that blooms annually in several regions of Brazil. This species is still little explored in terms of phytocompounds in all organs of this plant, especially the floral organ. Flowers of T. granulosa were collected in the municipality of Rio Verde, Goiás, Brazil, in 2021. The hydroethanolic floral extract was prepared by maceration and qualitative phytochemical (colorimetric reactions and salt formation) and antibacterial analyzes performed and the results expressed in millimeters of inhibition at different concentrations in mg mL-1. Several phytochemical classes were observed with positive results, especially for alkaloids, phenolics, oxylates, saponins, carbohydrates and tannins. As for the bacterial assay, potential antibacterial activity was observed for all bacterial strains tested, except for Salmonella serovar Thyphymurium and serovar Enteritidis. Expressive inhibitions were observed for Enterococcus faecalis > Pseudomonas aeruginosa > Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli at the highest concentrations between 100-50 mg mL-1. The floral extract of Tibouchina granulosa showed phytotherapeutic potential with the presence of several phytochemical groups and expressive antibacterial activity.

The ethanol extracts of root, bark and leaf of Bridelia ferruginea was investigated for antibacterial activity against clinical isolate of Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. The extracts had significant antibacterial activity in vitro at concentration of 25 mg/ml, 50 mg/ml, 100 mg/ml and 200 mg/ml and in vivo at dose of 50 mg/kg and 100 mg/kg. The root extract in vitro had the highest zone of inhibition, followed by the bark extract for both Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. The concentration of 200 mg/ml had the highest zone of inhibition in vitro. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) showed a decreasing inhibitory effect of the plant extracts for both Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli as the concentration decreases with root having 3.125 mg/ml, bark having 6.25 mg/ml and leaf having 25 mg/ml for Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. Likewise, the minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) showed decreasing bactericide effects with decrease concentration with root having 12.5 mg/ml, bark having 12.5 mg/ml and leaf having 25 mg/ml for Escherichia coli while root had 6.25mg/ml, bark had 12.5mg/ml and leaf had 25mg/ml for Staphylococcus aureus. The in vivo investigation showed that the root and bark extract exhibited antibacterial activity on both Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli at doses of 100mg/kg and 50mg/kg; the root extract had higher activity than the bark and root/bark combined. The dose of 100 mg/kg had the highest colonies reduction for Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli in vivo. Preliminary phytochemical screening of root, bark and leaves of Bridelia ferruginea revealed the presence of tannins, flavonoids, carbohydrates, cardiac glycoside (root, bark and leaves), saponins (root and bark). The presence of tannins, saponins, flavonoid, cardiac glycoside and carbohydrate in the bark and root extracts of the plant indicates that the bark and root extracts were pharmacological importance

A series of novel 2-oxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinolin-7-yl benzoate derivatives were synthesised and obtained in moderate yields (55-85%) by the reaction of parent 7-hydroxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinolin- 2-one (7-hydroxy-3,4-dihydroquinolin-2(1H)-one) with substituted benzoyl chlorides. The synthesised test compounds were characterised by spectral analysis. Partition coefficient was determined for all test compounds and was found to be in the range of 1.2-2.9. Further, the compounds were screened for their antibacterial and antioxidant activities. They were also randomly screened for their antidiabetic potential by non-enzymatic glycosylation of haemoglobin assay. However, the results revealed that test compounds did not possess antioxidant and antidiabetic potential comparable to that of their respective standards. The results also revealed that most of the compounds exhibited antibacterial action against four bacterial strains namely Bacillus subtilis, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli. Further, the test compound VIIl (at 500 µg mL-1), showed zone of inhibition comparable to that of the standard ciprofloxacin (at 500 µg mL-1).

Quinazoline Derivatives

The emergence of multidrug microbial resistance is the main challenges that the modern scientists have so far been facing in the recent era. In this respect, new series of drug classes having potential to give antimicrobial effect have been synthesized. A new series of 5- substituted-1,10 b-dihydroimidazole[1,2-c]quinazoline derivatives 8a-e have been synthesized and screened for antibacterial activity and antifungal activity. Synthesized derivatives were characterized by IR, MASS and 1H-NMR spectroscopy. Synthesized compounds show good activity, which was comparable to the standard drug and it can be useful for the further clinical study. Antibacterial activity was evaluated against four different pathogenic bacterial strains like Staphylococcus aureus, Enterococcus faecalis, Escherichia coli and Pseudo-monas aeruginosa. Among the screened compounds, 8e show good antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli with MIC of 50 and 100 μg/ml respectively. Antifungal activity was evaluated  against two strains of fungi. Among the synthesized derivates, compound 8c was emerged out as the potent antifungal compound against Candida albicans and Aspergillus niger with MIC of 25 μg/ml and 75μg/ml respectively. Compound 8e also shows good antifungal activity with MIC of 50 μg/ml against both Candida albicans and Aspergillus niger. The overall results of this study indicated that  synthesized quinazoline derivatives had the potential to act as an antibacterial and antifungal agent, hence further investigation is warranted.

Nanotechnology has become an irreplaceable need and green synthesis of nanoparticles offers several advantages over physical and chemical methods. Medicinal plants are the main reservoirs of drugs and drug candidates. We report the biogenic synthesis of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using aqueous root extract of Saussurea lappa. Verification and characterization of these nanoparticles were done by UV-visible spectroscopy, XRD-analysis and Scanning Electron Microscopy and FT-IR. Extract-loaded-AgNPs showed the highest inhibition zone against Escherichia coli (11.0 mm) and intermediate against Pseudomonas aeruginosa (9.0 mm). The methanolic root extract of S. lappa alone, also moderately inhibited Pseudomonas aeruginosa (9.0 mm) and showed lower activity (6.0 mm) against Escherichia coli. Its aqueous roots extract inhibited (6.0 mm) the growth of tested organisms. Methanolic extract showed antioxidant potency (IC50 = 0.814 μg/mL). Experiments revealed the presence of phenols and flavonoids in the roots of Saussurea lappa. These findings provide promising interest to exploit Saussurea lappa for the biogenic synthesis of AgNPs and their biological applications.

An exploratory study based on laboratory experiment was carried out to determine the antibacterial effect of Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) extract of Aloe vera leaf gel (DAE) against standard strains of Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae in the Department of Pharmacology & Therapeutics in collaboration with the Department of Microbiology, Mymensingh Medical College, Mymensingh, Bangladesh. DMSO extract was used in five different concentrations (100, 200, 300, 400 and 500 μg/ml). Dose dependent inhibitory effect was seen against the test organisms using disc diffusion method. Zone of inhibition (ZOI) were 8 mm, 13 mm, 15 mm, 16 mm and 21 mm against S. aureus; 0 mm, 8 mm, 13 mm, 15 mm and 18 mm against P. aeruginosa; 8 mm, 11 mm, 13 mm, 16 mm and 20 mm against E. coli; 0 mm, 9 mm, 12 mm, 14 mm and 18 mm against K. pneumoniae at 100, 200, 300, 400 and 500 μg/ml respectively. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) was assessed by broth dilution technique. The MICs of DAE for S. aureus, P. aeruginosa, E. coli and K. pneumoniae were 300 μg/ml, 400 μg/ml, 400 μg/ml and 450 μg/ml respectively. From the study it was observed that DMSO extract of Aloe vera leaf gel possesses antibacterial effect against the test pathogens. The findings highlight the need for further extensive study to detect and isolate the biologically active ingredients present in the Aloe vera leaves which are responsible for antibacterial effect. Hopefully, that would lead to the discovery of new and more potent antimicrobial agents originated from Aloe vera. Mediscope Vol. 7, No. 2: July 2020, Page 67-74
