Towards discovering new antibacterial agents, we designed and synthesized a series of new naphthalimide-thiourea derivatives and evaluated them against a panel of bacterial strains consisting of , , , , and various mycobacterial pathogens. Compounds 4a, 4l, 4m, 4n, 4q, 9f, 9l, 13a, 13d, 13e, 17a, 17b, 17c, 17d, and 17e demonstrated potent antibacterial activity against with MIC 0.

The venetoclax-cyclodextrin inclusion complex was prepared using kneading method. Primarily in-silico molecular docking study was performed to examine the possible interaction between venetoclax and hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD) and extensively characterized.

Even though numerous antibiotics are currently available for treating infectious diseases, a great number of bacterial strains have acquired resistance to many of them. Among these, infections caused due to Staphylococcus aureus are predominant in adult and paediatric population.
