Francisella noatunensis subsp. orientalis (Fno) is the causative agent of piscine francisellosis, an emerging infectious disease in Asia and Latin America. In this study two outbreaks of francisellosis were diagnosed in the UK on the basis of histopathology, electron microscopy, PCR, bacterial isolation and fulfillment of Koch's postulates. Furthermore, a phenotypic fingerprint based on biochem...

Introduction: Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori), is a bacterium responsible for upper gastrointestinal tract diseases. The 16s rRNA is a common H. pylori gene which are usually preferred for diagnosis purpose. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence and abundance of 16s rRNA in fecal samples and also evaluate correlation between the level of 16s rRNA and activities of the cytokine...

An indigenous fungal strain was isolated from Indian Kolar Gold Field mine soil. The isolate was heterothallic, branched septate, deeply floccose, fast-growing, dull green with white background conidial columnar mycelium from Aspergillus section Fumigati. Diverse metabolic patterns of the isolate exhibit high metal, thermal resistance which grews well from 28 ± 1 degrees C to 37 degrees C and p...

The objective of the present study was to isolate and identify Clostridium chauvoei from swab (n=750) and tissue (n=50) samples from cattle suspected for black quarter in six districts belonging to different climatic zones (Punjab, Pakistan). Conventional culture methods showed 192(25.6%) and 19(38%) positive from swab and tissues respectively for this bacterium. These bacterial isolates were f...

Tuerkayana is of particular interest because it has been separated, in recent years, from Cardisoma and Discoplax but studies its taxonomic status, especially a whole mitochondrial genome perspective, have lacking. In this study, the mitogenomes four species (Tuerkayana magnum, rotundum, hirtipes, celeste) are sequenced contrasted with other Brachyura for first time. The phylogenetic tree Brach...

In recent years, the low Zn content of wheat has become critical. Consequently, solutions that can improve nutrition are highly researched. present investigation, we aimed to evaluate potential benefits phosphate-solubilizing bacteria isolated from Ziziphus lotus on seedling growth. Based criteria, four strains, J16, J143, J146, and J158, were identified by 16SrRNA gene sequencing as Pseudomona...

The study aims at isolating and identification of Burkholderia cepacia bacteria from clinical samples various pathological conditions such as diabetic foot ulcers, burn, wound, sputum urine. present includes 280 collected patients suffering ulcer, cystic fibrosis, burns, sputum, wounds who attend Alsader Medical City Al-Hakim General Hospital during the period extended September 2020 to Februar...

Article Information Brinjal is an important vegetable crop grown worldwide. A field survey conducted during 2012 in Kerala state of South India, the little leaf disease affected brinjal plant was observed in one of the home gardens located at Nemmara (Palakkad district). The diseased and healthy samples were collected; genomic DNA was isolated and 16SrRNA gene amplified by performing nested PCR...

OBJECTIVE Conventional diagnosis of bacterial vaginosis contains some controversial points. To understand accurately the relationship between clinical stages and the microbiotas, the intravaginal microbial flora was analyzed by the clone library method. STUDY DESIGN Vaginal fluid samples from 31 patients were examined. Lactobacillary grade, Nugent score, culture-based method, and clone librar...
