OnwurahThe public is worried about how their health is impacted by microplastics in sachet water. This awareness has repercussion for water producing factories and public health organization in managing health hazard associated with microplastic ingestion. Many countries in Africa, with concern to Nigeria, the act of packaging water in polyethylene materials by water producing factories has become accustomed. These packaged … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 29 Jan 2018 · 9,918 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEfficacy of Curcumin as an Immunostimulatory Dietary Supplement for Channel CatfishSaly Hafiz, Kunwar K. Srivastava, Joseph C. Newton et al.Natural agents such as curcumin may have the potential to enhance disease resistance in aquaculture. In this study, 30 catfish (Ictalurus punctatus), 2 years of age, were allotted to one of 3 treatment groups (n = 10) to receive diets supplemented with 0.0, 0.5, or 1.0% curcumin. Body weights and lengths of fish were taken at 0, 20, 40 and … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 11 Jan 2017 · 8,329 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIn Vitro Antagonistic Antifungal-Activity of Streptomyces Isolate 339 Against Magnaporthe oryzaeM. Ebrahimi Zarandi, G. H. Shahidi Bonjar, F. Padasht DehkaeiBiological control offers an environmentally friendly alternative to the use of antimicrobials for controlling plant diseases. A collection of about 100 Actinomycete strains was screened for the ability to produce metabolites that inhibit Magnaporthe oryzae growth in vitro. The Streptomyces isolate 339 showed strong in vitro antagonistic activity against M. oryzae in Agar disc and Well-diffusion methods by producing extracellular … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 4 Sep 2013 · 8,143 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAntibiotic Resistance of Escherichia Coli Isolated From Poultry and Poultry Environment of BangladeshMuhammad Ali Akond, S.M.R. Hassan, Saidul Alam, Momena ShirinProblem statement: Increased emergence in microbial resistance to antibiotics is a growing problem in Bangladesh, a tropical country with a large agrarian population having limited medical facilities. Wide spread use of antimicrobials in poultry farming here is a concern of multi-drug microbial resistance development that can potentially be transmitted to human pathogens even from non-pathogenic carrier strains. Attempt was made … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2009 · 11,772 accessesView PDFCite
