Benzimidazole and its derivatives were synthesized according to the reported literature (Wagner EC et al., 1943). The compounds are benzimidazole ;1-(4-((1H-benzimidazol-1-yl) methylamino) phenyl) ethanone; 2-butyl-1H-benzimidazole; 2-methyl-1H-benzimidazole. The stock solutions are prepared by dissolving the compound in DMSO. Antimicrobial activity was tested by the disc-diffusion method under standard conditions using Mueller-Hinton Agar (MHA) and the antibiotics used as listed below, Table 1.As control MTCC K. pneumoniae 7407, MTCC S. aureus 3160 and ATCC E.coliJ53.

Antimicrobial disc diffusion susceptibility
AST was done by Disc-Diffusion method (Qureshi AH et al., 2004) for all the derivatives at the concentration 1mg/ml to find out the zone of Inhibition. The derivatives of different concentration were added to the 9mm sterilized filter paper disc and placed on the culture swabbed MHA plates. The diameters of the zone of inhibition were measured in millimetres.

    The purpose of this lab was to iodonize salicylamide and characterize the product in order to determine its structure. The crude product of this reaction was recrystallized using ethanol. The white crystalline product was isolated using vacuum filtration and characterized. The percent yield of this reaction was determined to be 39%. The observed experimental melting point of the product was determined to be 235-137 oC. When compared to the literature melting point 228 oC of the predicted product, 5-iodosalicylamide, it can be concluded that the product is very pure.…

    The limitation to size exclusion chromatography is that the sample can be difficult to concentrate due to broadening of the bands of the eluting molecules through the column. While both techniques of chromatography achieve in separating the components within a mixture, the size exclusion chromatography helps determine the molecular mass of the separated compounds and the affinity chromatography is helpful in yielding the highest concentration of protein purification due to its…

    The highest concentration, 100 mg/L, was chosen because the negative effects of gibberellic acid were anticipated at this concentration. The glass jars were filled in the same manner as the jars in the acute experiment. As an example, a 100 mg/L replicate would contain 2 mL of the buffered gibberellic acid 5000 mg/L stock solution and 98 mL of moderately hard water. In a similar manner as the acute experiment, the pH and the conductivity were recorded before the daphnids were placed in the jars. The daphnids were placed in the jars, after the jars were spiked, and allowed to equilibrate.…

    Through the process of an oxidation reaction, a secondary alcohol was able to be transformed into a ketone. This type of reaction is a fundamental part of chemistry, as they allow transformations of functional groups. The secondary alcohol in this experiment was cyclododecanol, and the oxidizing agent used was HOCl, which is derived through the use of NaClO and acetic acid. The alcohol was then reduced to cyclododecanone, a ketone. A starch/Iodide test was also conducted to tell whether enough bleach was utilized in the reaction.…

    Risperidone (RIS), an atypical neuroleptic drug, reported to have fewer adverse effects than traditional agents, is effective in psychoses, such as schizophrenia, and other psychiatric illnesses in adults and children, including pervasive developmental disorders (PDD), autism, and attention-deficit disorder (ADD) [1–3]. It acts primarily by selective antagonism of dopamine Type 2 (D2) and serotonin Type 2 (5HT2) receptors in the brain [4–6]. Apart from minor N-dealkylation, the major pathway of biotransformation of RIS is hydroxylation at the 9_ position on the pyrido-pyrimidone ring to 9-hyroxyrisperidone (9-OH-RIS), mediated by the liver enzyme, CYP2D6 [7]. Risperidone is a second-generation antipsychotic agent widely used in the treatment of schizophrenia.…

    Many medical advancements were made during the first and second World Wars, including trauma, patient care, prevention of infection, and post-war care. It is said that World War I was a good war for medicine because numerous medical and clinical advancements were made during the 4 year span. A majority of these discoveries can be credited to the damages left by new artillery and guns that were capable of obliterating flesh and bone (Clarke). These new guns could fire accurately up to 10 miles away. They also gave off shrapnel, or pieces of scrap metal that housed the ammunition, which could also cause injury (Ellis and Elser).…

It makes use of a proton gradient in the mitochondrial cell membrane to generate ATP. By transporting protons back across the membrane, using ADP and a phosphate ion to create ATP. Normally most bacteria can gain enough ATP to grow optimally through substrate level phosphorylation, however it has been shown that M. tuberculosis, both the active and the latent version, do not produce enough ATP to grow sufficiently.…

    The purpose of the research was to potentially find a new bacteria that is capable of producing an antibiotic against one or more of the six ESKAPE pathogens (a group of pathogens that are resistant to most if not all current antibiotics). All research protocol was based on the Yale Small World Initiative and the third edition of Microbiology Laboratory Theory & Application. One bacteria from a sample of soil collected (colony #18) was tested for its ability to produce antibiotics against two of the six ESKAPE pathogens. It showed potential against one and further tests were done to identify the specific bacteria found in the soil sample. Introduction…
