Calli Essential Oils Synergize with Lawsone against Multidrug Resistant Pathogens.

Molecules (Basel, Switzerland)
The fast development of multi-drug resistant (MDR) organisms increasingly threatens global health and well-being. Plant natural products have been known for centuries as alternative medicines that can possess pharmacological characteristics, includin...

The synthesis, antifungal and apoptotic effects of triazole-oxadiazoles against Candida species.

European journal of medicinal chemistry
In search of potent and safe antifungal agents, herein, we report the synthesis, characterization and biological activities of triazole-oxadiazole compounds. The structural verification of the molecules was carried out by H NMR, C NMR and mass spectr...

Preservative effect of Camellia sinensis (L.) Kuntze seed extract in soy sauce and its mutagenicity.

Food research international (Ottawa, Ont.)
The purpose of this study was to investigate the applicability of green tea seed (GTS) extract as a natural preservative in food. Food preservative ability and mutagenicity studies of GTS extract and identification of antimicrobial compounds from GTS...

Purification and characterization of a protease from the visceral mass of Mytella charruana and its evaluation to obtain antimicrobial peptides.

Food chemistry
This work describes purification of a protease from the visceral mass of the mussel Mytella charruana as well as evaluation of its ability to hydrolyze milk casein to generate antimicrobial peptides. The enzyme showed pI of 4.1 and a single polypepti...

Novel cationic chitosan derivative bearing 1,2,3-triazolium and pyridinium: Synthesis, characterization, and antifungal property.

Carbohydrate polymers
In this paper, novel cationic chitosan derivative possessing 1,2,3-triazolium and pyridinium groups was synthesized conveniently via cuprous-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) and methylation. FTIR, H NMR, and elemental analysis examined th...

Effects and inhibition mechanism of phenazine-1-carboxamide on the mycelial morphology and ultrastructure of Rhizoctonia solani.

Pesticide biochemistry and physiology
The purpose of this research was to explore the effect of phenazine-1-carboxamide (PCN) on Rhizoctonia solani and to elucidate its mechanisms of action. The toxicity of PCN to R. solani was measured using a growth rate method. The results indicated t...

Effect of pseudolaric acid B on biochemical and physiologic characteristics in Colletotrichum gloeosporioides.

Pesticide biochemistry and physiology
In our previous study on natural products with fungicidal activity, pseudolaric acid B (PAB) isolated from Pseudolarix amabilis was examined to inhibit significantly mango anthracnose (Colletotrichum gloeosporioides) in vivo and in vitro. In the curr...

Investigating the antifungal activity and mechanism of a microbial pesticide Shenqinmycin against Phoma sp.

Pesticide biochemistry and physiology
Tea white scab (TWS) is a major disease affecting tea trees in mid-elevation regions and often occurs during rainy seasons with low temperatures. This disease is caused by the fungal pathogen Phoma sp. TWS can infect young stems, tender leaves, and t...

Antifungal properties and biocompatibility of silver nanoparticle coatings on silicone maxillofacial prostheses in vitro.

Journal of biomedical materials research. Part B, Applied biomaterials
Patients with facial prostheses suffer from yeast, Candida albicans, infections. This study aimed to determine the biocompatibility and antifungal properties of silicone facial prostheses coated with silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) in vitro. Medical gr...

Evaluation of synergistic anticandidal and apoptotic effects of ferulic acid and caspofungin against Candida albicans.

Journal of food and drug analysis
This study aimed to investigate the synergy between anticandidal and apoptotic effects of ferulic acid and caspofungin against Candida albicans and Candida glabrata, with the help of a quantitative checkerboard microdilution assay using 3-(4,5-dimeth...
