Chapter – 6 Biological evaluation of newly.....<br />

Staphylococcus pyogenes MTCC 442, Staphylococcus aureus MTCC 96 and<br />

Enterococcus faecalis MTCC 439.<br />

In case of second series of compounds (i.e. DNJ-201 to DNJ-210), only<br />

one compound DNJ-203 was found to possess highest potency and lowest<br />

MIC value (i.e. 0.5 µg/ml) against Bacillus pumilus MTCC 1607 which was<br />

having more inhibitory effect than the standard drug Linezolid. Thus the<br />

compound possessing trifluoromethyl group has more inhibitory effect than<br />

the other functional groups and shows highest antibacterial activity. While the<br />

compound having chloro group possesses second lowest MIC value (i.e. 1<br />

µg/ml) against Bacillus pumilus MTCC 1607. In short, molecules having<br />

halogen group show more inhibition to the growth of afore mentioned<br />

bacterias. Rests of the compounds were found to be good active against the<br />

same bacterial strain. DNJ-209 and DNJ-210 were found to be moderate<br />

active against Bacillus pumilus MTCC 1607 with the MIC values >8 and 16<br />

µg/ml respectively. All the compounds of this series were found to be good<br />

active against Staphylococcus pyogenes MTCC 442 with the MIC value<br />

between 1-8 µg/ml. All these compounds did not show good inhibitory effect<br />

against rests of the three bacterial strains i.e. Staphylococcus epidermidis<br />

MTCC 155, Staphylococcus aureus MTCC 96 and Enterococcus faecalis<br />

MTCC 439, only few compounds were found to possess good activity.<br />

Results of antibacterial screening of DNJ-301 to DNJ-305 showed that<br />

all the compounds were moderate active against all the four bacterial strains<br />

i.e. Bacillus pumilus MTCC 1607, Staphylococcus epidermidis MTCC 155,<br />

Staphylococcus pyogenes MTCC 442 and Staphylococcus aureus MTCC 96.<br />

Only one compound, DNJ-305 was found to possess good inhibitory effect<br />

with the MIC values of 4 µg/ml and 2 µg/ml on Staphylococcus epidermidis<br />

MTCC 155 and Staphylococcus pyogenes MTCC 442 respectively. Thus long<br />

alkyl chain possessing three carbon atoms on nitrogen atom of indoline<br />

nucleus having secondary amine on the another end did not affect the<br />

inhibition of the bacterial growth, only the compound (DNJ-305) having benzyl<br />

piperazine subunit could show good inhibition.<br />
