Antimicrobial Activities of Hydroxybiphenyl Derivatives (III) - The Antibacterial Activities of p-Phenylphenol Derivatives against a Cariogenic Bacterium Streptococcus mutans

Hydroxybiphenyl 유도체의 항균작용 (III) - 충치균 Streptococcus mutans에 대한 p-Phenylphenol 유도체의 항균작용

For the purpose of developing of anticariogenic agents, P-phenylphenol derivatives were synthesized and determined their antibacterial activities against a cariogenic bacterium, Streptococcus mutans. Among synthetic compounds, 2-nitro-6-bromo-p-phenylphenol showed as potent antibacterial activity as magnolol and honokiol.
