Antifungal and antibacterial activity of 2-acetylpyridine-(4-phenylthiosemicarbazone) and its metal (II) complexes.
2-Acetylpyridine-(4-phenylthiosemicarbazone) and its metal (II) complexes have been synthesized and characterized by chemical and spectral methods. They were studied for their antibacterial and antifungal activities in vitro. The ligand and its metal (II) complexes exibited significant activity against a wide spectrum of bacteria and fungi.
