Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAntimicrobial Properties of Newly Synthesized Derivatives of CoumarineS. Govori, S. Spahiu, V. Kalaj et al.Problem statement: Coumarins are well known for their biological activity. On the basis of that we have synthesized some new derivatives of coumarine and investigated their antimicrobial properties. Approach: 4-Heteroaryl-coumarin-3-carbaldehydes 4(a-d) are synthesized by condensation of 4-chloro-coumarin-3-carbaldehydes 2 and corresponding heterorylamines 3(a-d) under reflux reaction conditions. Antimicrobial properties of new coumarins 4(a-d) are investigated and results are submitted for their … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2010 · 9,673 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Morphological, Biochemical and Biological Studies of Halophilic Streptomyces sp. Isolated from Saltpan EnvironmentDeepika T. Lakshmipathy, Krishnan KannabiranProblem statement: Dermatophytes have developed resistance to the existing antifungal antibiotics. As a part of our continuous search we had isolated, identified and characterized actinomycetes from the halophilic environment having antagonistic activity against the dermatophytes namely Trichophyton, Microsporum and Epidermophyton. Approach: Actinomycetes were isolated from the soil sample collected from the Ennore saltpan region, Chennai, India and screened for antidermatophytic … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 7,735 accessesView PDFCite
