Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCorrelation of Biodiversity of Algal Genera with Special Reference to the Waste Water Effluents from IndustriesRitu Singh Rajput, Sonali Pandey, Seema BhadauriaPollution is the introduction of contaminants, which cause adverse change, into the natural environment and mainly from external inputs like sewage, waste from industries, oil spills and agricultural use of pesticides. Anthropogenic activity-reflected in the use of toxic metals and organic pollutants-has increased levels of soil contamination and damage to aquatic systems. Ecosystems maintain water quality and withstand pressure from … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 9 Dec 2016 · 8,608 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInfluence of Cadmium and Glucose on Soil Microbial CommunitiesAliya Gilmullina, Polina Galitskaya, Svetlana SelivanovskayaA laboratory-based simulation of exposure of the soil community in a gray forest soil to cadmium and glucose has been conducted. It was established that while growing in a fertile medium microbial communities isolated from a soil sample contaminated with cadmium have a substantially increased phase of growth delay and there is a reduction in total growth. While analyzing communities … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 10 · 6 Nov 2015 · 6,645 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Role of the Microbial Biofilm in the Pathogenesis of Periodontal Disease: An UpdateAndreas L. Ioannou, Konstantinos Siormpas, Miltiades E. Mitsias, Georgios A. KotsakisMicrobial biofilm is generally considered to be an etiologic factor for the diseases of the periodontium and has been and continues to be the main focus of avid periodontal researchers. Based on our current understanding of the role of the biofilm in the pathogenesis of periodontal disease, each different species seems to have a specific role to fulfill in this … …Current Research in Dentistry, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 6 May 2015 · 6,906 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHYPOLITHIC CYANOBACTERIA COLONIZATION OF QUARTZ AT SOUTH DESERTRoda F. Al-ThaniHypolithic microbial communities (found underneath rocks) were encountered in the southern desert of Qatar where quartz rocks are ubiquitous and are a substrate for hypoliths. These hypoliths thrive where extreme temperature, moisture stress and high light intensity limit the occurrence of higher plants and animal life. A small-scale ecological survey indicated that 80% of the quartz rocks in the area … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 11 Feb 2014 · 7,302 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStatus of Soil Microbial Population, Enzymatic Activity and Biomass of Selected Natural, Secondary and Rehabilitated ForestsK. S. Daljit Singh, A. Arifin, O. Radziah et al.Substantial clearance of forests and conversion of forest into various land use types contribute to deterioration of soil fertility and associated nutrients loss. Soils from natural and rehabilitated forest in Chikus Forest Reserve and also enrichment planting forest and secondary forest of Tapah Hill Forest Reserve, Perak, Malaysia were selected in order to assess the influence of land use change … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 28 Aug 2013 · 7,803 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCommunity Structure and Abundance of Tintinnids in the Bay of Bengal During the SpringHuaxue Liu, Liangmin Huang, Zhixin Ke et al.The Bay of Bengal (BoB) locates in eastern part of the northern Indian Ocean, with a unique inter-related oceanographic system due to the monsoon and enormous runoffs’ supply. microbial food web often dominated the stratified Tropical Ocean, while few studies have been taken up to the tintinnids ciliates. Community structure and abundance of tintinnids were investigated in transact 10° N … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 20 Sep 2012 · 7,898 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLeaf Surface Bacterial Colonization in Response to Brevicoryne brassicae (L.) Infestation of Brassica chinensis L.Shaon Raychaudhuri, Inga Mewis, Christian UlrichsProblem statement: Epiphytic population is an intrinsic part of the leaf surface. The effect of stress like insect infestation is not well understood. The aim of the study was to determine possible effects of insect infestation on bacteria community. Approach: The leaf surface microbial profile of Brassica rapa ssp. chinensis (L.) was investigated using a culture-dependent approach under normal and … …Current Research in Microbiology, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 May 2011 · 7,859 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUrinary Tract Infection-A Survey of Local PopulationShaon Ray Chaudhuri, Ashoke Ranjan Thakur, Poulomi Nandy, Santanu SamantaUrinary Tract Infection, commonly known as UTI, affects as many as 50% women at least once during their lifetime. All individuals are susceptible to Urinary Tract Infection (UTI); however the prevalence of infection differs with age, sex and certain predisposing factors. With the above background in mind we conducted a survey of the local population (women of 3 age groups) … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,778 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractUse of Design of Experiments and Manuscripts Rejection RateAydin Berenjian, Jason RyanTraditional one-variable-at-a-time method was and still is for some researchers, the general procedure to determine the optimal conditions for a chemical, biochemical or biological mechanism. According to this technique, a large number of experiments should be performed to obtain a high precision in effect assessment and also the interaction among the variables cannot be defined. To overcome the limitations of … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 8 Jun 2015 · 7,167 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDeveloping a System for Antibacterial Treatment of Dental Caries using Culture Based ApproachM. Mishra, S. Ghosh, L. E. Alex et al.Problem statement: Dental caries is a chronic disease worldwide, caused mainly by microbes. The orthograde approaches still remain the only option of treatment. Lack of rapid antibiotic sensitivity determination of the dental pathogen is a rate limiting step in the field of Dental Microbiology. Approach: The culture dependent analysis was used for the study of oral microflora from five healthy … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 18 May 2012 · 9,061 accessesView PDFCite
