Disclosed are novel compounds useful for prevention or control of diseases derived from fungi, a process for producing the same, and novel antifungal agents using the novel compounds. The compounds useful for prevention and treatment of diseases derived from fungi according to the present invention include novel compounds represented by formula (I). The compounds represented by formula (I) have potent antifungal activity against diseases derived from fungi, and do not have phytotoxicity to mammals and agricultural and garden plants, from which diseases should be eliminated, and, even when applied to agricultural and garden plants, have high photostability.whereinR1 represents isobutyryl, tigloyl, isovaleryl, or 2-methylbutanoyl;R2 represents a hydrogen atom, an aromatic carboxylic acid residue, or a protective group of amino; and R3 represents a hydrogen atom, nitro, amino, acylamino, or N,N-dialkylamino, excluding the case where, when R1 represents isobutyryl, tigloyl, isovaleryl, or 2-methylbutanoyl with R3 representing a hydrogen atom, R2 represents a 3-hydroxypicolinic acid residue, 3-hydroxy-4-methoxypicolinic acid residue, or a 3,4-dimethoxypicolinic acid residue.

The present invention relates to nanosilver-containing antibacterial and antifungal granules ("NAGs"). The NAGs have longlasting inhibitory effect on a broad-spectrum of bacteria and fungi, which include, but are not limited to, Escherichia coli, Methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus, Chlamydia trachomatis, Providencia stuartii, Vibrio vulnificus, Pneumobacillus, Nitrate-negative bacillus, Staphylococcus aureus, Candida albicans, Bacillus cloacae, Bacillus allantoides, Morgan's bacillus (Salmonella morgani), Pseudomonas maltophila, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus foecalis alkaligenes, Streptococcus hemolyticus B, Citrobacter, and Salmonella paratyphi C. The NAGs contain ground stalk marrow of the plant Juncus effuses L. which has been dispersed with nanosilver particles. The nanosilver particles are about 1-100 mn in diameter. Each of the nanosilver particles contain a metallic silver core which is surrounded by silver oxide. The present invention also provides a process for making the NAGs. The NAGs can be used in a variety of healthcare and industrial products. Examples of the healthcare products include, but are not limited to, ointments or lotions to treat skin trauma, soaking solutions or cleansing solutions for dental or women hygiene, medications for treating gastrointestinal bacteria infections, sexual related diseases, and eye diseases. Examples of industrial products include, but are not limited to, food preservatives, water disinfectants, paper disinfectants, construction filling materials (to prevent mold formation).

The present invention provides high throughput screening systems for identifying antifungal compounds. The method can be performed in plurality simultaneously with fluorescence or absorbance readouts.

A topical sustained release delivery system for delivery of antifungal agents to the finger or toenails achieving high penetration through the nails by combining the antifingal agent with a keratolytic agent and a humectant. The pharmaceutical sustained release topical preparation is provided in a varnish or spray form for treating the nail and surrounding tissues, where the active ingredient is an antifungal agent, a keratolytic agent, or preferably a combination of an antifuingal and a keratolytic agent. The composition may further comprise an antibacterial, an antiviral, an antipsoriatic agents, or combinations thereof.

The invention relates generally to concentrates and aqueous solutions for topical application comprising antifungal additives or agents as well as to preparation and use of such concentrates and solutions. More specifically, the invention relates to preparation and use of solutions that come in contact with the eye lids and / or eyes, such as but not limited to contact lens solutions, aqueous ophthalmic rinse solutions, and aqueous surgical scrubs for ophthalmic use.

Topically applicable dermatological / cosmetic compositions suited for ungual / peri-ungual administration for the treatment of a variety of pathologies, including fungal pathologies, such as onychomycosis, contain (a) at least one biologically active agent (e.g., antifungal) and (b) at least two of the pro-penetrating agents selected from the group consisting of urea, an organic acid and an ethoxydiglycol, the at least two-pro-penetrating agents respectively being present in effective amounts as to synergistically improve the ungual / peri-ungual bioavailability of the at least one biologically active agent.

A dual action antifungal nail coat composition and method of use for ameliorating or preventing fungal infection of the nails, and onychomycosis, in particular, is disclosed. Composition embodiments in the form of one-coat type and two-coat type suitable for daily fungicidal regimens are disclosed. A preferred antifungal nail coat composition comprises an effective fungicidal amount of antifungal agent, a permeation enhancing amount of a substantially non-volatile, permeation enhancer, a film-forming amount of a hydrophilic polymer, and a pharmaceutically acceptable, volatile carrier. The composition provides a substantially water-soluble fungicidal coating on contacting a fungally susceptible or infected nail.

The present invention relates to active bactericidal, antibacterial, anti-infective, antimicrobial, sporicidal, disinfectant, antifungal and antiviral compounds and compositions and to new uses of these compositions in therapy. This specification also describes methods of use for the new compounds and compositions. The specification further describes methods for preparing these compounds.
