RESUMO
Preliminary differentiating screening of the antibacterial and antifungal activity of a series of diastereomeric cis/trans-3-aryl(heteroaryl)-3,4-dihydroisocoumarin-4-carboxylic acids (3a-i) was performed by the agar diffusion method against twelve microorganism strains of different taxonomic groups. S. aureus and A. niger were the most sensitive strains to the antibiotic effect of the tested compounds, both inhibited by 10 of 12 compounds. The most potent antibacterial agent was cis-3-phenyl-3,4-dihydroisocoumarin-4-carboxylic acid (cis-3a), exhibiting activity against all seven bacterial test strains.
