R. Lakhan et al., Synthesis and antimicrobial activity of 1-aryl-2-amino-3-(4-arylthiazol-2-yl)/(benzothiazol-2-yl)guanidines, FARMACO, 55(5), 2000, pp. 331-337
The synthesis of fifteen new 1-aryl-2-amino-3-(4-arylthiazol-2-yl)/(benzoth
iazol-2-yl)guanidines is described. They were screened for their antimicrob
ial susceptibility by the standard disc diffusion method of the World Healt
h Organization (WHO) and the activities compared with that of standard stra
in of Escherichia coli NCTC 10418. The sensitive aminoguanidines were furth
er subjected to the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) test. (C) 2000 E
