Galacto-oligosaccharides as an anti-bacterial and anti-invasive agent in lung infections
Biomaterials, 2022 Emerging antimicrobial resistance in infections asks for novel intervention strategies. Galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS) might be attractive alternatives to antibiotics due to their anti-inflammatory and anti-adhesive properties. Mannheimia haemolytica is one of the major Pasteurellaceae associated with bovine lung infections. Using M.

Vitellogenin from the Silkworm, Bombyx mori: An Effective Anti-Bacterial Agent
PLoS ONE, 2013 Silkworm, Bombyx mori, vitellogenin (Vg) was isolated from perivisceral fat body of day 3 of pupa. Both Vg subunits were co-purified as verified by mass spectrometry and immunoblot. Purified Vg responded to specific tests for major posttranslational modifications on native gels indicating its nature as lipo-glyco-phosphoprotein.

Arabian Journal of Chemistry, 2017 Abstract Chalcone derivatives have been synthesized by the reaction of 3-acetyl-2,5-dimethylthiophene with corresponding active aldehyde in ethanolic NaOH in microwave oven. The structure of these compounds was established by elemental analysis, IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and EI-MS spectral analysis. The anti-bacterial activity of these compounds were first
