Chitin and chitinolytic enzymes are gaining importance for their biotechnologicalapplications. Chitinases contribute to the generation of carbon and nitrogen in the ecosystem and can inhibit the growth of many fungal diseases that pose a serious threat to global crop production. [....] » Read More
Title : Antibiotic resistance of clostridioides difficile
Xingmin Sun, University of South Florida, United States
Clostridioides difficile is one of the top five urgent antibiotic resistance threats in USA. There is a worldwide increase in multidrug resistance (MDR) of C. difficile, with emergence of novel strains which are often more virulent and MDR. Antibiotic resistance in C. difficile i [....] » Read More
Title : Metagenomics of the saline habitats of coastal Gujarat, India: Emerging potential for biocatalysis and bioremediation
P. Satya Singh, Saurashtra University, India
Metagenomics enables us to access the genomic potential of the cultivable and largely non-cultivable microorganisms in the totality of the natural habitats. It’s particularly significant as only a minor fraction of the total microbial population of the ecosystems is cultiva [....] » Read More

Title : Exploration and characteristic features of L-Asparaginase from a marine bacillus sp.
R. P. Singh, Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee, India
L-asparaginase is an antileukemic enzyme that is majorly utilized in treatment for acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) and other blood cancers. A number of groups have made efforts to explore this vital agent. However, use of L-asparaginase has been observed to have several side [....] » Read More
Title : Validation of an online rapid in-situ detection sensor for Escherichia coli in surface and drinking water
Beatriz de la Loma, Cetaqua, Spain
Events of faecal contamination in surface, drinking water and distribution systems can have a large impact on human health. To reduce the impact of these events it is crucial to have monitoring techniques to measure faecal contamination, such as faecal indicators (e.g. E. coli), [....] » Read More
Title : The coupling of emerging innovative Microbiology technique and extreme understudied environment: A new frontiers for drug discovery
Atanas Pipite, Massey University, New Zealand
Emerging infectious diseases and multidrug-resistant human pathogens are becoming a major threat to global health. The Covid19 coronavirus pandemic illustrates the suffering and financial cost when antibiotics and vaccines are not available in time to fight a newly emerged pathog [....] » Read More
Title : The Antibacterial Effect of Cannabis sativa Complementary Medicine Preparations on Clinically Relevant and Pathogenic Strains of Staphylococcus Species in vitro
Cherie Ann Kruger, University of Johannesburg, South Africa
Staphylococcus is a nosocomial, opportunistic, and highly pathogenic bacterium that forms part of normal human skin commensals. When patients have weakened immune systems, these bacteria tend to over colonise and if left untreated can cause toxic shock syndrome, septicaemia, as w [....] » Read More
