Effect of Visible Light on Marine Pigmented and Non-pigmented Bacteria

Epiphytic marine pigmented bacteria: A prospective source of natural antioxidants

Awareness on antioxidants and its significance in human healthcare has increased many folds in recent time. Increased demand requisite on welcoming newer and alternative resources for natural antioxidants. Seaweed associated pigmented bacteria screened for its antioxidant potentials reveals 55.5% of the organisms were able to synthesize antioxidant compounds. DPPH assay showed 20% of the organi...

Phototargeting oral black-pigmented bacteria.

We have found that broadband light (380 to 520 nm) rapidly and selectively kills oral black-pigmented bacteria (BPB) in pure cultures and in dental plaque samples obtained from human subjects with chronic periodontitis. We hypothesize that this killing effect is a result of light excitation of their endogenous porphyrins. Cultures of Prevotella intermedia and P. nigrescens were killed by 4.2 J/...

enzymic activities of pigmented and non- pigmented strains of trichophyton violaceum

isolation of pigmented t.violaceum from a patient with endothrix infection associated with the inflammatory and kerion symptoms and also isolation of the non- pigmented strain from another patient with non-inflammatory symptoms, led us to investigate the enzymic activities in both strains. most of the studies on dermatophyte compoxition have shown the relationship between proteolytic enzymes an...
