Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleThe Effect of Different Functional Microbial Agents on the Biological Characteristics and Rhizosphere Enzyme Activity of Hydroponic CucumberCe Wang, Ouya Zhao, Shiyou Sun et al.This study aims to comprehensively explore the effect of functional microbial agents on healthy soil cultivation and attempt to increase cucumber yield. Three different microbial agents were used for cucumber seedlings by virtue of the hydroponic cultivation method in order to study their effects on enzyme activity and seedling growth and reveal the relationship between rhizosphere enzyme activity and carbon, … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 24 Mar 2025 · 5,510 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleIsolation and Identification of Bacteria Leading to Microbial Spoilage of Sweet Potato and Screening for Antistaling Agents Running HeadDaoqi Liu, Huili Liu, Yuanyuan Dang et al.To develop natural preservatives tailored for sweet potatoes, the control effect of essential oils on the spoilage microorganisms of sweet potatoes is uncertain. Therefore, we first isolated and identified the dominant spoilage bacteria from spoiled sweet potatoes. Micrococcus aloeverae, Priestia aryabhattai, and Glutamicibacter arilaitensis were identified through screening, morphological observation, gram staining, and 16S rDNA assays. Subsequently, five plant essential … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 20, Issue 1 · 26 Apr 2024 · 5,221 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEvaluating Toxicity of Extracted Destruxin from Metarhizium Anisopliae Against Citrus Leafminer, Phyllocnistis citrellaM. Mohammadi Sharif, A. R. Hadizadeh, M.A. Tajick GhanbaryProblem statement: The fungus, Metarhizium anisopliae (Metschnikoff) Sorokin produces some cyclic peptide toxins, destruxins, which exhibit a variety of insecticidal actions. Citrus leafminer, Phyllocnistis citrella Stainton, is a major pest of young citrus trees; therefore its effective and safe control is a important issue. Approach: Five isolates of M. anisopliae were inoculated in Potato Dextrose Broth (PDB) mediums. Destruxin was … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2010 · 7,251 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Metformin Treatment on Inflammatory Factors and Gut Microbial Diversity in Patients with Type II Diabetes MellitusLei Tong, Jingjing Zhang, Li Xiao Yue et al.With the persistent rise in the prevalence of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM), traditional treatment evaluations have primarily focused on glycemic control, often overlooking the multidimensional effects of medications. As a first-line therapeutic agent, the anti-inflammatory effects and gut microbiota regulation mechanisms of metformin remain incompletely elucidated. This prospective cohort study established a metformin treatment group and a T2DM control … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 2 · 20 Jul 2026 · 774 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMicrobial Diversity as a Biological Control Mechanism for Fruit Tree Diseases: A Comparative ApproachZhichao TangThe traditional methods of fruit tree pest control have long relied on chemical pesticides. This not only leads to increased resistance of pests and diseases but also adversely affects the ecological environment and fruit safety. Although biological control has gradually received attention, the current research on how to systematically use microbial diversity to achieve efficient control and prevention is still … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 8 Apr 2026 · 1,603 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractConcentric Circles Painting Versus Back-and-Forth Scrubbing: A Comparison Between Two Skin Disinfection TechniquesKai Beng Tan, Yu Cheng Chiu, Audrey Tham et al.Traditionally, skin disinfection is performed in concentric circles. In recent years, there are studies which suggest that back-and-forth scrubbing could be a better technique. However, there is insufficient evidence to demonstrate which disinfection technique is better in reducing microbial load prior to invasive procedures. This study aims to compare the effectiveness of concentric circles painting and back-and-forth scrubbing skin disinfection … …International Journal of Research in Nursing, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 24 Nov 2021 · 10,371 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTotal Phenolic, Resveratrol Content, Antioxidant and Antimicrobial Activity in Five Cultivars of Peanut SproutsQing Liu, Shaoqi Li, Yao Zhang et al.Peanut sprout is one of the potential natural sources of bioactive substances. In this study, five different peanut cultivars were conducted to germination, the change in total phenolic compounds, resveratrol content, antioxidant and antimicrobial activity were investigated. The sprouts of five peanut cultivars (Fuhua, Silihong, Dabaisha, Xiaobaisha and Huayu) were extracted using 75% ethanol for 3 h and the crude … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 12 Feb 2020 · 8,546 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMultidrug Resistant Microorganisms (MDR) and Biofilm Producers: A Challenge for Hospital Infectious ControlDaniel Lucio, Elizabeth Proaño, Alberto Bustillos et al.Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) now represents a major threat to contemporary health care, especially in hospitals, where repeated antimicrobial exposure selects for and facilitates the dissemination of Multidrug-Resistant (MDR) microorganisms. Biofilm growth adds another layer of persistence by increasing microbial tolerance, supporting long-term colonization of medical devices, and worsening clinical and economic outcomes. This narrative review synthesizes evidence on MDR biofilm-forming … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 12 Sep 2026 · 774 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPromising Biocontrol Agents Against the Main Pathogens of Apple Fruit RotElvira Ismailova, Nurlan Kuldybayev, Gul Baimakhanova et al.Current study looked into how well microorganisms, both those already known and newly found, from the surface of plants in gardens in southern and southeastern Kazakhstan could fight against other harmful microbes. We evaluated the effectiveness of 16 strains of lactic acid bacteria, 11 strains from the Bacillus and Pseudomonas genera, and 7 strains of Trichoderma fungi (all sourced from … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 2 · 25 Aug 2026 · 864 accessesView PDFCite
