โœฆ Synopsis


Abstract

Communication: Thiazolidinone derivatives (TDCs) were prepared by converting chitosan into chitosan's Schiff's bases (CSBs), followed by treatment with mercaptoacetic acid. Both CSBs and TDCs were tested for antimicrobial activity against four different bacteria. All TDCs showed comparatively better antiโ€microbial activity without much affecting basic physical properties of chitosan such as filmโ€forming capacity, tensile strength, etc. This indicates that chitosan derivatives with a thiazolidinone moiety might be a better material for wound dressing.
