Antimicrobial Activity of Whey Powder Produced by Non- Thermal Method
Whey, is a natural product resulting from coagulation of milk. Herein, whey powder prepared by non thermal method, was optimized and investigated for its anti-microbial potential against twelve bacerial isolates belonging to three bacterial species by agar-well diffusion assay. Minimum Inhibitory Concentration values were determined by tissue culture plate method to check the concentration rang...
متن کاملProduction of Non-Ribosomal Peptide Synthetase (NRPS)- Dependent Siderophore by Aeromonas Isolates
Background: Aeromonas species are Gram-negative ubiquitous bacteria, facultative anaerobic rods that infect both invertebrates and vertebrates. Various fish species develop hemorrhagic disease and furunculosis due to Aeromonas spp. Aeromonas strains generate certain active compounds such as siderophores, which are the final products of non-ribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) activity. The prese...
متن کاملCationic hydrophobic peptides with antimicrobial activity.
The MICs of cationic, hydrophobic peptides of the prototypic sequence KKAAAXAAAAAXAAWAAXAAAKKKK-amide (where X is one of the 20 commonly occurring amino acids) are in a low micromolar range for a panel of gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria, with no or low hemolytic activity against human and rabbit erythrocytes. The peptides are active only when the average segmental hydrophobicity of the...
متن کاملAssessment of Anti-Plasmodial Activity of Non-Hemolytic, Non-Immunogenic, Non-Toxic Antimicrobial Peptides (AMPs LR14) Produced by Lactobacillus plantarum LR/14
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Lactobacillus plantarum strains are known to exhibit an antimicrobial property against bacteria and fungi. In the present investigation, AMPs LR14, antimicrobial peptides produced by L. plantarum strain LR/14, were tested against a protozoan system, Plasmodium falciparum and its non-toxic nature was envisaged on a mammalian system. METHODS Human erythrocytes infected...
متن کاملAntimicrobial and Antioxidant Activity of Carotenoid Pigment Produced by Native Rhodococcus spp. Isolated From Soil
In recent years, scientists and researchers from all over the world pay much attention to carotenoid pigments as a substitute for antibiotics and synthetic chemical compounds with antioxidant property and the plants, various microorganisms including bacteria and algae are also capable of producing carotenoid pigments. In this research, the production of antimicrobial and antioxidant carotenoid ...
