A new method for the detection of oil degrading genes in Pseudomonas
aeruginosa based on transformation and PCR hybridization
- Abstract: Biodegradation is the chemical breakdown of materials by a physiological environment. The term is often used in relation to ecology, waste management and environmental remediation. A specific gene from bacteria is identified and sequenced which has the capacity of oil degradation without any obvious strain specific discrimination using a combination of PCR and hybridization. The parameters o...

Molecular identification of Lactobacillus plantarum isolated from
fermenting cereals
- Abstract: The identification of a microbial isolate to genus level only amounts to a partial characterization of the isolate, but this can tell us a lot about that organism. Knowing the species allows the laboratory access to the body of knowledge that exists on that species. Identification schemes using phenotypic characteristics such as colony and cell morphology, Gram reaction and other staining ch...

Molecular characterization of resistance to Russian wheat aphid (Diuraphis
noxia Kurdjumov) in bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) line KRWA9
- Abstract: The Russian wheat aphid (RWA), Diuraphis noxia (Kurdjumov) causes extensive economic damage to wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) in most wheat growing regions of the world. Control of RWA using systemic insecticides is expensive and pollutes the environment therefore the most effective method of RWA control is the development of RWA resistant cultivars. This study was initiated to determine inher...

Assessment of different samples for molecular diagnosis of extra-pulmonary
tuberculosis
- Abstract: Extrapulmonary tuberculosis is an important clinical problem particularly in developing countries. The aim of this study was to assess two different samples (blood and fluid) for the diagnosis of extra-pulmonary tuberculosis (abdominal tuberculosis and tuberculous lymphadenitis). The study subjects were recruited from WadMedani Teaching Hospital during 2009-2013. Seventy five ascetic fluid a...

Use of the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length
polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) technique to analyse the Anthocyanidin Synthase
(ANS) gene Locus in Zimbabwean sorghum landraces with different seed
proanthocyanidin profiles
- Abstract: Studies on the effects of mutations within flavonoid pathway genes on the resultant flavonoid profiles in sorghum are important in the identification and characterisation of varieties with nutritionally superior flavonoid profiles. In this study, we aimed at determining the effect of mutations at one important flavonoid pathway locus, the anthocyanidin synthase (ANS) gene, on grain flavonoid...

Effect of common feed enzymes on nutrient utilization of monogastric
animals
- Abstract: Some nutrients in livestock feed may not be fully digested by animals own digestive enzymes, and hence important nutrients are unavailable to the animal. Although, supplementation of enzymes to farm animals has shown to increase the digestibility of poorly digested diets to a much greater extent. By targeting specific anti-nutrients in certain feed ingredients, feed enzymes allow especially ...

Biotechnological production of α-amylases for industrial purposes:
Do fungi have potential to produce α-amylases?
- Abstract: Enzymes are substances produced by a living organism which acts as a catalyst to bring about a specific biochemical reaction. Amylases are a class of hydrolytic enzymes, widely spread in nature having varied application in different industrial processes and constitute a class of industrial enzymes. Fungal amylases have been widely used for the preparation of oriental foods. In spite of the w...

Anthology of historical development and some research progress glimpses on
phytochemical antioxidants phenomenon
- Abstract: The inevitability of applications of antioxidants in protection of human and preservation of dormant living systems such as food, drugs, cosmetics and other allied chemicals against internal and external stresses have made antioxidants an area of active research world over. Study impact of antioxidant research has advanced from topic level to subject level as revealed by the volume of antiox...

Effect of humic acid application on accumulation of mineral nutrition and
pungency in garlic (Allium sativum L.)
- Abstract: Humic acid promote the conservation of mineral nutritions and as well as stimulate the pungency usually being more prominent in the cloves of garlic bulb. The effect of humic acid application on accumulation of mineral nutritions and pungency in garlic (Allium sativum L.) cv. ‘Gangajali’ was studied. Here, we observed that the maximum concentration of Ca, Fe and S were shown when plants were...

In vitro effects of gibberellic acid and sucrose concentration on
micropropagation of two elite sweet potato cultivars in Rwanda
- Abstract: The current study aimed at evaluating the effect of gibberellic acid (GA3) and sucrose on in vitro propagation of two elite sweet potato cultivars (Ukerewe and Gihingamukungu). Nodal explants from in vitro growing plantlets were harvested and cultured on Murashige and Skoog media supplemented with 2.5, 5, 10, 20 and 40 μM, GA3. In a separate experiment, sucrose was evaluated at 30, 60, 90, 1...
