Hence, a series of 1,2,4-triazole-3-thione and 1,3,4-oxadiazole-2-thione derivatives (4a-5c) have been synthesised and screened for their anti-tubercular activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Ra (H37Ra). Thetriazolethiones4b and 4v showed high anti-tubercular activity (both MIC and IC50) against the dormant H37Ra by in vitro and ex vivo. They were shown to have more specificity towards mycobacteria than other gram-negative and gram- positive pathogenic bacteria. The cytotoxicity was almost insignificant up to 100 μg/mL against THP-1, A549 and PANC-1 human cancer cell lines, and solubility was high in aqueous solution, indicating the potential of developing these compounds further as novel therapeutics against tuberculosis infection.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1.130</style></custom4></record></records></xml>
