Antibacterial Effect of (2E,2E)-4,4-Trisulfanediylbis(but-2-enoic acid) against Staphylococcus aureus.

A new highly active molecule, (2E, 2E)-4,4-trisulfanediylbis(but-2-enoic acid) (TSDB), was designed and synthesized through comparative molecular field analysis with the diallyl trisulfide structure of garlic. TSDB exerted a strong inhibitory effect against Staphylococcus aureus, with minimal inhibi...
