Same compounds were evaluated for antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus substilis, Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Candida albicans and Asparagillus niger. Among eighteen synthesized novel compounds, in which five compounds (3a, 3b, 3d, 4a, 4c) shows promising antibacterial activity as compared to Ciprofl oxacin (100 ¦Ìg/ml), however most of them (3a, 3b, 3d, 3e, 4a, 4b, 4d, 4e) showed potent antifungal activity as compared to Fluconazole (100 ¦Ìg/ml) %U http://www.rjps.in/2012/v2/i1/60
