objective fungi produce many different carotenoids and some are attractive in medical and industrial sources. in this work the ability of mucor hiemalis (ptcc 5292) to produce carotenoids in media with different nitrogenous and carbon sources and incubation with white, yellow, blue and red lights (15w, 220v, e27) against dark-grown were studied. materials and method the microorganism cultivatio...

background and objectives: the aim of this study was to compare direct microscopic examination with culture and pcr for the diagnosis of mucorales infection in blood and tissue specimens. material and methods: blood samples and tissue specimens were obtained from 28 patients (total 58 samples) with suspected invasive fungal infection and cultured on proper media. direct smear of tissue samples ...

In this study, two halophilic bacterial strains isolated from saline habitats in Argentina grew in the presence of gas oil. They were identified as Halomonas spp. and Nesterenkonia sp. by 16S ribosomal RNA sequencing. Chemotaxis towards gas oil was observed in Halomonas spp. by using swimming assays.

This paper reports about design and development of a novel mobile electronic nose assembly, which is an inspection cum controlling system. It is used to detect and control the fungi growth. The Model is tested in North-Eastern (Shillong) Region of India. The diseases like Aspergillosis, mucor amphibiorum, penicillium marneffei and hypersensitivity pneumonic are caused due to long term exposure ...

The structure of mucor pusillus pepsin (EC 3.4.23.6), the aspartic proteinase from Mucor pusillus, has been refined to a crystallographic R-factor of 16.2% at 2.0 A resolution. The positions of 2638 protein atoms, 221 solvent atoms and a sulphate ion have been determined with an estimated root-mean-square (r.m.s.) error of 0.15 to 0.20 A. In the final model, the r.m.s. deviation from ideality f...

Root exudates play a significant role in influencing the rhizosphere microbes. Fungi are an important group of microbes that influenced by plant root exudates. As invasive alien species secretes several allelochemicals and impact soil microbes, this study compared fungal community one weeds Ageratina adenophora with native (Rubus ellipticus, Shorea robusta Imperata cylindrica) far-western Nepal...

Lipase of Mucor pusillus NRRL 2543 was recovered with ammonium sulfate precipitation, gel filtration on Sephadex G-75, and anion-exchange chromatography on diethylaminoethyl-Sephadex A-50. Maximal glycerol ester hydrolase (lipase) activity was observed at pH 5.0 to 5.5 and 50 C when trioctanoin and olive oil were used as substrates. The enzyme also showed esterase activity; it hydrolyzed, with ...
