Abstract
The potential derivatives of 3, 5 Dinitrobenzoic acid from our previous study were subjected to preservative efficacy testing. Aluminium Hydroxide Gel – USP was used as a pharmaceutical product and Staphylococcus Aureus, Bacillus subtilis, Escherichia coli, Candida albicans and Aspergillus Niger were used as representative challenging microorganisms for antimicrobial effectiveness testing as per USP 2004. The 3, 5 Dinitrobenzoic acid derivative, 3,5 Dinitrobenzyl anilide has better preservative efficacy than 3, 5 Dinitrobenzoic acid as well as the standard preservatives, methyl paraben and propyl paraben .
