Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDegradative Plasmid and Heavy Metal Resistance Plasmid Naturally Coexist in Phenol and Cyanide Assimilating BacteriaBahig El. Deeb, Abdullah D. AltalhiProblem statement: Heavy metals are known to be powerful inhibitors of xenobiotics biodegradation activities. Alleviation the inhibitory effect of these metals on the phenol biodegradation activities in presence of heavy metals resistant plasmid was investigated. Approach: Combination of genetic systems of degradation of xenobiotic compound and heavy metal resistance was one of the approaches to the creation of polyfunctional strains … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 11,984 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetermination of the Presence of Huanglongbing in Seeds and Movement of the Pathogen in Citrus reticulataHajivand Shokrollah, Thohirah Lee Abdullah, Kamaruzaman Sijam, Siti Nor Akmar AbdullahProblem statement: Huanglongbing (HLB) also known as citrus greening disease is a fastidious phloem-inhabiting bacterium in the genus Candidatus Liberibacter. Using universal primers, the 16S ribosomal DNA sequence of three strains of the bacterium were obtained by PCR. However there is very little information on seed transmission and HLB pathogen movement to find a way for control or reduce the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2009 · 8,088 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImproving a PCR-Based Method for Identification of Ralstonia solanacearum in Natural Sources of West MalaysiaReza Khakvar, Kamaruzaman Sijam, Wong Mui Yun et al.Ralstonia solanacearum, a soil-borne plant pathogen, causes lethal wilting disease of more than 200 plants worldwide. This very wide host range covers both monocots and dicots, extending from annual plants to trees and shrubs. Although generally it’s considered as a plant pathogen, R. solanacearum behaves primarily as a saprophytic bacterium able to survive for long periods of time in various … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 9,469 accessesView PDFCite
Case ReportOpen accessIn the abstractSevere Pansinusitis Due to Raoultella OrnithinolyticaMitchell R. GoreRaoultella ornithinolytica is a gram-negative aerobic bacterium typically found in plants, soil and water. Reports of Raoultella ornithinolytica causing infections in humans, especially in the head and neck, are rare. Herein we report a case of a woman with severe septal deviation, chronic headaches and facial pain who was revealed to have Raoultella ornithinolytica pansinusitis incidentally noted during an endoscopic … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 20 Dec 2017 · 7,987 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractChemical Mutagenesis for Improvement of Production of a Biologically Active Extracellular Polymeric Substance by Halomonas xianhensis SUR308Jhuma Biswas, Amal K. PaulA moderately halophilic bacterium, Halomonas xianhensis SUR308 (Genbank Accession No. KJ933394) isolated from solar saltern of Surala, Odisha, India was found to produce significant amount of a biologically active extracellular polymeric substances (EPS). Under optimized cultural conditions, the strain was able to produce 7.05 g L-1 of EPS after 8 days of incubation under shake culture. To enhance the EPS … …Current Research in Microbiology, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 1 Apr 2016 · 15,918 accessesView PDFCite

Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHost Cell and Antibody Response towards Pasteurella Multocida B2 Infection-A General ReviewEric Lim Teik Chung, Faez Firdaus Jesse Abdullah, Yusuf Abba et al.Pasteurella multocida was first shown to be the causative agent of fowl cholera by Louis Pasteur in 1881. Since then, this Gram-negative bacterium has been identified as the causative agent of many other economically important diseases in a wide range of hosts. Haemorrhagic Septicaemia (HS) is a disease, caused by Pasteurella multocida serotypes B2 and E2 that causes acute, highly … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 27 Jun 2015 · 7,857 accessesView PDFCite
Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the abstractCampylobacter Fetus Infection of the Aorta: A Case Report and Review of LiteratureRabindra Ghimire, Carl Urban, Andy Lee et al.Campylobacter is a gram negative bacterium that exhibits tissue tropism. We report a case of Campylobacter fetus bacteremia associated with infra-renal abdominal aortitis. The patient was a poor surgical candidate so she was initially treated only medically. Her course was complicated by the development of a pseudoaneurysm. An endovascular stent was placed and the patient was given 4 more weeks … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 26 Jun 2015 · 7,309 accessesView PDFCite
