Abstract


  1. The antibacterial and the antitubercular properties of sesamin have been studied. While sesamin has little antibacterial properties against the common pathogenic gram positive and gram negative bacteria, it has exhibited a very high antitubercular activity.
  2. The stability of sesamin at various temperatures and hydrogen-iion concentrations has been studied.
  3. The antitubercular activity of sesamin has been studied, in presence of serum, cysteine and nucleic acid.
