Abstract

Abstract A number of imidazo [1, 2-a] pyridine derivatives were selected and investigated in relation to anti-parasitic (Trichomonas vaginalis) activity. After treatment with derivatives, biological activity was assessed by determination of the in vitro viability of cell cultures, using alamar blue as a metabolic indicator. A good correlation was found between the anti- parasitic activity and the partition coefficient log P determined experimentally on the tested ...
