Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEFFECTS OF SUPPLEMENTAL LYSINE ON PERFORMANCE, ANTIBODY TITER AND RECTAL TEMPERATURE IN RESPONSE TO A MODIFIED-LIVE VIRAL VACCINE IN NEONATAL CALVESKate Sharon, Glenn Duff, Jeff Dailey et al.Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis (IBR), caused by bovine herpesvirus-1, contributes significantly to economic losses in the dairy and beef cattle industry. Lysine has been shown reduce virulence of herpesviruses in felids and humans. Our objective was to evaluate the effects of supplemental lysine on serum IBR antibody titer and rectal temperature in response to a modified-live Intranasal (IN) or Intramuscular (IM) … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 2 Jun 2014 · 7,606 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffectiveness of Cultural Parameters on the Growth and Sporulation of Colletotrichum gloeosporioides Causing Anthracnose Disease of Mango (Mangifera indica L.)Ashutosh Pandey, Lallan Prasad Yadava, Muthukumar Manoharan et al.Colletotrichum gloeosporioides causing anthracnose which is a serious post harvest disease in mango accounting for 15-20% loss. The variation in nutritional and physiological characteristics among five isolates of C. gloeosporioides collected from different agro-climatic regions of India was investigated. All the isolates showed differential response in requirements of media, temperature and media pH for growth and sporulation. Malt Extract Agar … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 28 Jan 2013 · 7,917 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExogenous Pyocyanin Alters Pseudomonas aeruginosa Susceptibility to CiprofloxacinGary D. Grant, Tian Tian Zhang, Lee S. Gloyne et al.This in vitro cell-based study identified the contributing role of pyocyanin in the resistance of Pseudomonas aeruginosa to ciprofloxacin. Problem statement: P. aeruginosa is the major pathogen in the Cystic Fibrosis (CF) lung with pyocyanin being a critical component of its virulence. Prevalence is high and, once acquired, chronic infection is difficult to eliminate. Ciprofloxacin remains a crucial oral agent … …Current Research in Microbiology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,792 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Salmonella enteritidis Outer Membrane Proteins and Lipopolysaccharide Profiles with the Detection of Immune Dominant ProteinsA. Maripandi, Ali A. Al-SalamahProblem statement: Salmonella infection is a serious medical and veterinary problem world-wide and causes great concern in the human health and food safety. Salmonella enteritidis outer membrane proteins and lipopolysaccharide play important role in the virulence and immunological properties of bacteria. Prophylaxis of enterobacterial infection has proven difficult to achieve. Vaccination is an effective tool for the prevention of Salmonella … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 21 Jun 2010 · 9,147 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Widely Used Diagnostics "DNA Microarray"-A ReviewR. Manoj KumarProblem statement: DNA microarray technique is one of the latest advances in the field of molecular biology and medicine. It is a multiplex technique used in combination of bioinformatics and statistical data analysis. Since, 1995, the technique offers the possibility of conducting tens or hundreds of thousands of simultaneous hybridizations. Approach: This increased experimental efficiency permits high throughput and whole … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 7,787 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Aqueous Extract of Aegle marmelos Fruit on Adherence and β-Lactam Resistance of Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli by Down Regulating Outer Membrane Protein CSubramaniya Bharathi Raja, Malliga Raman Murali, G. K. Malathi et al.Problem statement: Enteropathogenic Escherichia Coli (EPEC) continue to be a major health problem, leading to death due to diarrhea, predominantly in children below the age of five. Due to evolution of multi drug resistance in EPEC and side effects caused to host by antibiotics necessitated a search for alternative medicines from medicinal plants. One such medicinal plant used since ancient … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,615 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIsolation and Characterization of Potential Probiotic Escherichia coli Strains from Rat Faecal SamplesPrasant Kumar, S. Ferzin, S. Chintan, G. Naresh KumarProblem statement: Gastrointestinal disorders mainly diarrhea is the most common cause of morbidity and mortality among infants and children in the developing countries occurs due to infection by enteropathogens. Ccontrol of these pathogens could be achieved by nonpathogenic Escherichia coli producing bacteriocins. Approach: Primary aim of this study was to isolate E. coli strains which inhibit enteropathogens. For this purpose, … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 8,417 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Quick Method for Metarhizium anisopliae Isolation from Cultural SoilsM. A. Tajick Ghanbary, A. Asgharzadeh, A. R. Hadizadeh, M. Mohammadi SharifProblem statement: Fungi are one of the most active members in biological community of cultural soils. Many saprophyte and facultative parasitic fungi live in soil. Metarhizium anisopliae, one of the most famous soil inhabitant entomopathogens has a virulence potential on plant and animal pests. Approach: Introducing a new method for its isolation from soil was an applied method to find … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 9,319 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Inducible System for the Identification of Target Genes for a Regulator in MycobacteriaShruti Jain, Garima Khare, Pushplata Tripathi, Anil K. TyagiWe described principle and application of an inducible system for identification of target genes of a given mycobacterial protein with a regulatory function. This vector system, a promoterprobe vector, carries (i) promoterless lacZ as the reporter gene and (ii) the mycobacterial gene encoding the regulatory protein under the transcriptional control of the promoter of highly inducible mycobacterial gene encoding acetamidase. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,249 accessesView PDFCite
