Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMicrobial Biodiversity Screening for Metal Accumulators from Mineral Ore Rich Site in Andhra Pradesh, IndiaAditya Kumar Sarkar, Susmita Roy, Ananya Pal et al.Problem statement: Since the site selected for screening was a source of magnetite, the objective of this study was to isolate some groups of magnetotactic bacteria and microbes with potential of metal accumulation. Approach: The culture based approach was used for the study. Pure isolates obtained were characterized on the basis of morphology, biochemical tests, physiology as well as at … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,546 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIdentification of Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and Methicillin Resistant Coagulase-Negative Staphylococcus (CoNS) in Clinical SettingsM.A. Shorman, A.M. Atoom, N.M. Abuharfeil, A.M. Al-MajaliTo evaluate different methods for the identification of methicillin-resistant Staphylococci and their reliability, 112 Staphylococcal isolates (32 Staphylococcus aureus isolates and 80 coagulase negative Staphylococci isolates "CoNS") were collected from 118 nasal swab cultures and were subjected to three methods to detect oxacillin susceptibility of the isolates. The three methods were oxacillin disk diffusion method; the Epsilometer- test (E-test) and … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,972 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMolecular Mechanisms for Altered Glucose Homeostasis in HIV InfectionPaula W. HruzA complete understanding of the molecular mechanisms leading to HIV-associated insulin resistance remains elusive. Complex interrelationships between genetic predisposition, disease-related body changes and multidrug therapy all contribute to alterations in glucose homeostasis. These abnormalities can be differentiated between acute and reversible changes directly induced by HAART medications and more chronic and less reversible changes due to the development of lipodystrophy … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,877 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCharacterization of Mi1.2 Whitefly (Bemisia tabaci) Resistance GeneSherin Amin Mahfouze, Shipra Saxena, Heba Amin Mahfouze, Manchikatla Venkat RajamTomato (Solanum peruvianum) Mi gene provides resistance to whitefly (Bemisia tabaci), potato aphids and nematode making Mi a useful source in integrated pest management program. The aim of this work was to isolate, clone and sequence Mi1.2 gene from S. peruvianum. In addition, physico-chemical identification of amino acids deduced from Mi1.2 gene was done. Secondary (2D) and tertiary (3D) structures … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 4 · 15 Nov 2017 · 7,793 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractThe Timeless Contribution of Rootstocks towards Successful Horticultural Farming: From Ancient Times to the Climate Change EraIoannis E. PapadakisGrafting is a horticultural practice by which living vegetative plant organs (root, stem and/or buds) of either the same genotype or, usually, different genotypes belonging to the same species, genus, subfamily and/or family, are tightly connected to each other to form a double-compound plant. In fact, it is a method of asexual (clonal-vegetative) propagation of plants. The basal part of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 16 Dec 2016 · 9,521 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetection of Hepatitis C Virus Resistant Mutants in the era of Direct Acting AntiviralsLivia Maria Gonçalves Rossi, Paula RahalHepatitis C Virus (HCV) infects millions of people and represents an important public health problem in different regions of the world. Drug resistance is a major challenge for HCV-infection related control. Importantly, the arrival of a plethora of novel, more powerful drugs has revolutionized the field of HCV treatment. Here, we discuss the relevance of identification of HCV resistant mutants … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 7 Jan 2015 · 6,429 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAMINO ACID TRANSPORTERS IN DRUG DISCOVERYMariafrancesca Scalise, Lorena Pochini, Michele Galluccio, Cesare IndiveriAdministered drugs interact with membrane transporters of epithelia, Blood Brain Barrier and other districts influencing their delivery and efficacy. Drugs can also be used as inhibitors of transporters involved in human pathology. Drug-transporter interactions are responsible of off-target effects contributing to toxicity. High Throughput Screening technologies increased the potential applications in therapy or in predicting side effects. These strategies will … …Current Research in Drug Discovery, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 2 Oct 2014 · 7,099 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractChitinolytic Bacteria Isolated from Chili Rhizosphere: Chitinase Characterization and Its Application as Biocontrol for Whitefly (Bemisia tabaci Genn.)Nisa Rachmania Mubarik, Irni Mahagiani, Amaryllis Anindyaputri et al.Problem statement: Chitin, a common constituent of insect exoskeleton, could be hydrolyzed by chitinase. The research was conducted to screen chitinolytic rhizobacteria isolated from rhizosphere of chilli pepper and to determine their chitinase activity in degrading chitin of whitefly, Bemisia tabaci Genn. (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae). Whitefly is recognized as an important pest on many crops including chilli pepper. Approach: Screening and … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 11 Nov 2010 · 18,538 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetection of Chlamydophila abortus in Sheep (Ovis aries) in MexicoJuan Manuel Jiménez-Estrada, Marcos R. Escobedo-Guerra, Gabriel Arteaga-Troncoso et al.Chlamydophila abortus is one of the pathogens which induce abortion in small ruminants; this pathogen has a tropism for ruminant placenta and causes the disease commonly referred to as Ovine Enzootic Abortion (OEA). In Europe are estimated economic losses of around 20 million pounds a year by OEA. In the American Continent the disease has been reported only in Canada, … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,887 accessesView PDFCite
