College of Science / University of Kerbala discussed the PhD dissertation which is entitled Synthesis and Study biological activity of some new Derivatives of 2-Aminobenzothiazole “.
The study, which is presented by Nour Al-Huda Muhammad Abdel-Hussein, Department of Chemistry Sciences, aims at prepaying new benzothiazole derivatives containing thiazolidinone, quinazolinone, and chalcone units and diagnose them using approved spectroscopic analysis methods.
The study concludes that most of compounds contain DPPH radical inhibitory properties, which are particularly strong and superior to ascorbic acid. Some of prepared compounds are more effective than gentamycin as a drug against (S. aureus) and (E. coli).
The study recommends conducting extensive investigations to ensure minimum affected concentration and toxicity of the new prepared compounds, and study biological effects of these compounds on different types of bacteria, fungi, viruses, and diseases that affect animal tissues.
