title: Synthesis and antimicrobial activity of 1-aryl-2-amino-3-(4-arylthiazol-2-yl)/(benzothiazol-2-yl)guanidines.
abstract: The synthesis of fifteen new 1-aryl-2-amino-3-(4-arylthiazol-2-yl)/(benzothiazol-2-yl)gua nidines is described. They were screened for their antimicrobial susceptibility by the standard disc diffusion method of the World Health Organization (WHO) and the activities compared with that of standard strain of Escherichia coli NCTC 10418. The sensitive aminoguanidines were further subjected to the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) test.
