Methods Sixteenchalcone derivatives were synthesized and confirmed by ~1H NMR and IR spectra, and tested forantifungal activity against four common pathogenic fungi. Their structure-activity relationship isdiscussed. Results Among 16 title compounds, there were 5 new compounds, which have not beenreported before. The preliminary antifungal test showed that all title compounds exhibitedantifungal activities to a certain extent. The activity of compound 8 against Trichophyton rubrumhad a potency equal to that of fluconazole, with a MIC of 4 μg·mL^(-1) . Conclusion Sixteenchalcones were prepared and their antifungal activities against four common pathogenic fungi invitro were examined. Some of them exhibited antifungal activities to a certain extent.展开更多

Six fractions were separated from this extract using two chromatographic methods. All these fractions were submitted to antimicrobial activity against four clinically important bacteria Staphylococcus aureus ATCC6538, Enterococcusfaecalis ATCC6538 Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC14028, Escherichia coli ATCC25922 and one pathogenic fungus Candida albicans ATCCI0231. The in vitro antimicrobial activity was performed by agar disc diffusion method. The fractions with the greatest antimicrobial activity were fractions 02 and 06 which inhibited growth of both Gram negative and Gram positive bacteria and had significant antifungal activity against Candida albicans. The present study validates the folk use of the boiled truffle water-extract and indicates that it could be effective potential candidates for the development of new strategies to treat bacterial or fungal infections.展开更多

METHODS： The prepared strain broths （OD600=0.05） containing SE and CA were firstly used to test the minimal inhibitory concentrations （MICs） of SH, azithromycin （AZM） and fluconazole （FLU） by mi- cro-dilution method. Then the biofilms of SE and CA were matured in 96-well plates, and co-cultured with SH, AZM and FLU for 1, 2 and 3 days to assess the antibiofilm efficacies of the agents with differ- ent concentrations by crystal violet staining meth- od. At last, the treated biofilms of SE and CA by 2× MIC agents were observed by scanning electronic microscope. RESULTS： The MlCs of SE and CA were 256 and 1024 μg/mL, respectively. After the 1st, 2nd and3rd day of medications, the suppressions of biofilm were about 60% （P〈0.01）, 76% （P=0.000） and 75% （P=0.000） by 2×MIC SH, the suppressions of biofilm were about 90% （P=0.000）, 88% （P=0.000） and 90% （P=0.000） by 2×MIC SH, which could be testified by scanning electron microscope results. However, the inhibitions of biofilm attachment had no significant difference for SE by SH and azithromycin and CA by SH and fluconazole. CONCLUSION： SH had widely anti-pathogenic ef- fect on pathogenic biofilm formation of either bac- teria or fungus, had more influence on enclosed cells of SE and CA than the traditional antibiotics, revealing its target might be the extracellular poly- meric substances, and was more active to inhibit the growth of CA than SE.展开更多
