Comparison of effective chemicals, their synthetic moieties, and commercial antibiotics in expression of anti-Staphylococcus activity. Activity of (A) five highly active compounds (KS15, KS16, KS17, KS19, and KS20), (B–E) parental moieties used for synthesis of above compounds and (F) commercial antibiotics (chloramphenicol, methicillin, and streptomycin) against S. aureus. 20 μg of synthesized chemicals (A,B,F) were used to measure the activity, whereas 20 to 1,000 μg were used to evaluate the activity of the substrates. (C–E) Agar plates were photographed and one of the representative images from n = 5 were processed in Adobe Illustrator CS6 (v16.0.0, Adobe Systems Inc., USA).
