Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleEstablishment and Application of Rapid Quantitative Detection Technology for Bacillus cereusFeilong Sun, Hanyu Li, Jingxue Qian et al.Infections caused by Bacillus cereus often occur, causing a certain degree of health hazards and economic losses to people around the world. Rapid quantitative detection is of great significance for prevention. This study aims to develop a simple and rapid quantitative detection method for B. cereus, which can be used to monitor the contamination of B. cereus in food samples. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 21 Mar 2023 · 5,564 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleCharacterization of a Multi-Metal Resistant Bacillus cereus Strain TWSL_5 and it’s Bioremediation Potential for Cr, Pb, Zn and FeWeerasingha Mudiyanselage Nilmini Hasintha Kumari, Naduviladath Vishvanath Chandrasekharan, Champika Dilrukshi WijayarathnaAn effluent sample collected from a textile dyeing factory was screened to isolate metal resistant endogenous bacteria using standard microbiology techniques. A bacterium with the highest metal resistance was characterized by 16S rRNA gene sequencing and the bacterial genome was screened for any possible metal resistant genes using the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR). The bioremoval ability of the isolate was … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 3 · 15 Jul 2021 · 6,443 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleCharacterization of Pullulanase Type II from Bacillus cereus H1.5Hii Siew Ling, Tau Chuan Ling, Rosfarizan Mohamad, Arbakariya B. AriffProblem statement: Pullulanase is one of the important enzymes in starch industry. Search for the pullulanase with distinct features, possibly from easily grown bacterium, is of interest for industrial applications Approach: The extracellular pullulanase produced by Bacillus cereus HI.5 was purified by chromatographic method of DEAE-Sepharose, followed by Superdex gel filtration. The enzyme was characterized in terms of the optimal … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 8,808 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCyclodextrin Glucanotransferase Activity of Microbial Strains Isolated from Yam-Cultivation Soils in Northwestern BeninCyrille Alode Vodounon, Ténor Dias-Mendel Allode et al.β-Cyclodextrin, an industrially important oligosaccharide, is produced by microbial enzymes such as cyclodextrin glucanotransferase (CGTase). This study investigated ways to optimize the enzymatic activity of CGTase from Bacillus cereus, Bacillus pumilus, Bacillus brevis, and Bacillus subtilis strains isolated from soils in north-western Benin. Cyclization activity of CGTase and the influence of pH, temperature, and metal ions were assessed using conventional … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 21 Sep 2026 · 652 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDiversity and Resistance of Bacteria Isolated from a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) Surfaces and the Hands of Nurses in Jeddah-Saudi ArabiaRoqaiah M. Al-Jabri, Ahmed M. Al-Hejin, Rukaia Gashgari et al.Healthcare-Associated Infections (HAIs) are a serious problem for neonates when admitted to NICUs. The healthcare environment and healthcare workers' hands may be a source of transmission. Therefore, there is a need to find microbial sources and identify the contaminants to improve disinfection protocols to reduce HAIs. Out of the 169 samples collected on nutrient agar media from NICUs of a … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 5 Aug 2022 · 5,828 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIsolation and Identification of Staphylococcus epidermidis S14 Screening Extracellular Antimicrobial MetabolitesJie Zhang, Han Jiang, Jiaxin Jiang, Guangrong HuangTotal 24 isolates with antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Bacillus cereus and Shigella castellani, out of 259 strains, were isolated from the internal of seven marine fishes. The extracellular metabolites of strain S14, isolated from the internal of shark, showed stronger inhibition against the four tested bacteria, including G- and G+ bacteria. Based on the 16S rDNA the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 19 Mar 2016 · 7,567 accessesView PDFCite
