Isobavachalcone (IBC) is a natural prenylated chalcone with broad spectrum of pharmacological properties. In this work, we newly synthesized and investigated the antibacterial activity IBC against Gram-positive, Gram-negative mycobacterial species. was active Gram-positive bacteria, mainly Methicillin-Susceptible Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA) Methicillin-Resistant (MRSA), minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values 1.56 3.12 µg/mL, respectively. On other hand, not able to act species (MIC >...
Aedes aegypti is currently controlled with synthetic larvicides; however, mosquitoes have become highly resistant to these larvicides and difficult eradicate. Studies shown that insecticides derived from fungal extracts various mechanisms of action reduce the risk resistance in mosquitoes. One possible mechanism uncontrolled production reactive oxygen species (ROS) larvae, which can cause changes at cellular level. Thus, crude extract Xylaria sp. was evaluated investigate oxidative effect...
