This study was conducted to isolate and observe the morphological biochemical characteristics of bacterial strains present in sandwich. A single colony isolated from a sandwich collected different restaurants located area University Rajshahi by plating diluted primary suspension liquid medium onto an agar solidified mineral salt after purifying through filter paper. The bacterium found be Gram-...

CMS 19YT, a psychrophilic bacterium, was isolated from a cyanobacterial mat sample from a pond in Antarctica and was characterized taxonomically. The bacterium was aerobic, gram-positive, non-spore-forming, non-motile, exhibited a rod-coccus growth cycle and produced a yellow pigment that was insoluble in water but soluble in methanol. No growth factors were required and it was able to grow bet...

The eVect of dietary supplements on the longevity of male and female Gonatocerus ashmeadi, G. triguttatus and G. fasciatus (Hymenoptera: Mymaridae), was determined in the laboratory. Treatments included: water only, 3:1 honey–water solution, Xoral and extraXoral nectars from Wve diVerent plants (excised stems from Fagopyrum esculentum, Lobularia maritima, Phacelia tanacetifolia, Anethum graveol...

THE following notes seem to lend interest to at least one of those many relatively nameless members of the Neisseria which are found in the upper respiratory tract. In November, I937, a hospital patient coughed into the right eye of one of us (an apprentice to medicine) a quantity of sputum which required forcible lavage for its removal. No sign appeared until the morning of the fifth day after...

A thorough understanding of the microorganisms and pathogens associated with the larval stage of the tropical ornate rock lobster, Panulirus ornatus, is required to overcome disease outbreaks that currently block aquaculture attempts. This study used microscopy in addition to culture and molecularly based microbiological techniques to characterize the bacterial community associated with culture...
