Molecular Diagnosis and Characterization of Bacillus subtilis Isolated from Burn Wound in Iran

molecular diagnosis and characterization of bacillus subtilis isolated from burn wound in iran

background: bacillus subtilis refers to stretched and sometimes curved, gram-positive, aerobic, and catalase-positive bacilli, which has thermo-resistant endospores. it has been known as a normal flora in the human but can be pathogens in the case of opportunistic. also, it can be the pathogen of nosocomial infections such as wound among hospitalized patients. purpose of this study was to ident...

Molecular Detection of Lipase A gene in Putative Bacillus subtilis Strains Isolated from Soil

The present study was undertaken to screen the soil samples collected in Iran for the presence of the Bacillus subtilis lipase A gene. The bacterial colonies obtained from the collected soil samples were examined by physical appearance, biochemical tests and  the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Only four colonies were identified as putative B. subtilis strains and all contained the lipase A ge...

Antibiotic Resistance Patterns and Molecular Typing of Acinetobacter Baumannii Strains Isolated from Burn Patients in Iran

Background and Aims: Acinetobacter baumannii (A. baumannii) is an important multidrug-resistant opportunistic pathogen frequently causing various nosocomial infections and is a serious threat to burn patients. These infections are usually caused by the outbreak strains. The aim of this study was to show antibiotic resistance pattern and molecular typing of A. baumannii genes isolates collected ...

Molecular characterization of environmental Cladosporium species isolated from Iran

Background and Purpose: Cladosporium species are ubiquitous, saprobic,dematiaceous fungi, only infrequently associated with human and animal opportunisticinfections. Materials and Methods: Airborne samples were collected using the settle plate method, and soil samples were obtained from a depth of 5-10 cm of the superficial soil layer. Samples were cultured on Sabouraud dextrose agar (SDA) pla...

Molecular Characterization of Echinococcus granulosus Isolated from Sheep and Camel in Iran

molecular and catalytic characterization of acidophilic xylanase bacillus subtilis k40b

bacillus subtilis k40b was isolated from rice rhizospheres and its potential for production of xylanase was evaluated using biochemical methods. the gene for xylanase in b. subtilis k40b was amplified, sequenced and assigned to the ncbi genebank. the gene size was estimated to be 563 bp encoding 413 amino acids. comparison of the xylanase gene with reference sequences showed that the xylanase o...
