Madura Foot in Female - A Case Report
Abstract: Mycetoma is a chronic, localized, slowly progressing infection of the cutaneous and subcutaneous tissues caused either by fungi (eumycetoma or implantation mycosis) or by aerobic actinomycetes (actinomycetoma). It is acquired by traumatic implantation, most commonly in the tropics and subtropics, especially in rural agricultural communities, though well recognized elsewhere in Asia. A 48 year-old male agricultural laborer and rice farmer from khammam district andhrapradesh india was admitted to Mamata general …

Studies on Waste Water Treatment in Three Phase Semifluidized Bed Bioreactors: Computer Aided Analysis and Software Development
Abstract: Design and performance analysis of three phase semifluidized biofilm reactors for aerobic treatment of industrial effluents have been attempted. Bioconversion processes that follow Monod-type kinetics and those following Haldane-Andrews kinetics (involving substrate inhibition to microbial growth) have been considered as typical cases. The bioreactor has been modelled mathematically by solving performance equations separately for the packed section and for the fluidized section, considering dispersed flow in both of these sections, …

Effect of Nitrite on Oxygen Consumption and Ammonia Excretion of the Fresh Water Crab Paratelphusa jacquemontii (Rathbun)
Abstract: In aquatic ecosystem, nitrite concentrations are elevated by pollution with nitrogenous wastes and imbalances in bacterial nitrification and denitrification processes. Nitrite is transformed by nitrification to nitrate under aerobic condition. The effects of nitrite on physiology were investigated in the fresh water crab, Paratelphusa jacquemontii (carapace length 4–5 cm and weight 50–70 g) for 96 h. The crabs were exposed to sublethal concentration (1/10th and 1/20th of 96 h LC50) …

Optimization of Microbial Cellulose Production by the Newly Isolated Acetobacter sp. DR-1 under Laboratory Conditions
Abstract: Cellulose is the most abundant natural biopolymer on the earth, synthesized by plants, algae and also some species of bacteria. It is also produced by some animals (e.g., tunicates).Cellulose constitutes one of the three principal components present in plant, namely cellulose, hemi-cellulose and lignin. However, the degree of polymerization and crystallinity of bacterial cellulose is considerable high than that of plant cellulose. In microbes, cellulose is normally produced as exo-polysaccharide, …

Isolation, Production and Purification of Antibiotics Isolation from Microbes from Soil
Abstract: A chemical compound acting against life is called antibiotics. The term “antibiotic” literally means “against life”. The term appeared as early as 1928 in the French microbiological literature as antibiosis. The phenomenon of antagonism between living organisms was frequently observed even since 1877, when Pasteur and Joubert noticed that aerobic bacteria antagonized the growth of Bacillus anthracis. However, the world in its present restrictive meaning, “a chemical substance derived from …

MFC IN DOMESTIC WASTE TREATMENT PLANT – AN INNOVATIVE STEP TOWARDS ENERGY GENERATION AND WASTE REDUCTION
Abstract: AbstractMicrobial fuel cell is the latest green technology for degradation of bio-waste and generation of bio-electricity. In this technology the chemical energy in the organic matter is degraded by the micro-organism producing electrons and hydrogen ions. The movement of these electrons and hydrogen ions produce electricity. The use of costly electrode materials in MFC made this a costly technology. In this work we have tried to fabricate one of the …

Polyphasic Characterization and Comparative Genomics of a Newly Isolated Strain of Kocuria soli from Wild Ass Sanctuary, Gujarat, India
Abstract: From soil sample collected from Little Rann of Kutch-Wild Ass Wild Life Sanctuary, Gujarat a bacterial strain that is non-motile, cocci in shape, obligate aerobic, gram positive, catalase and oxidase positive was isolated and named as strain JC486. Strain JC486T was related to Kocuria soli M5W7-7T (99.7%) belonging to genus Kocuria according to sequence similarity and comparison data of 16S rRNA gene. The strain JC486T had a G+C content (DNA) …

Comparative Study on Bioremediation for Oil Spills Using Microbes
Abstract: This research work was designed to compare and evaluate the capacity of microbes in bioremediating and biodegrading of hydrocarbons which are the major constituents of petroleum oil. An oil spill is a leakage from ocean-going tankers, pipelines or other oil sources. Bioremediation for oil spills is a technique that uses microbes to eliminate contamination of hydrocarbons from water and soil, thereby making them safe for aquatic and terrestrial species. Bioremediation …

An Overview on Recycling of Agricultural Residues and Organic Wastes Converts into Valuable Organic Fertilizers through Microorganisms: Indian Perspective
Abstract: India generates huge amount of organic wastes from agricultural sector, due to rapid urbanization and increasing population growth. Farmers have a lake of knowledge about the recycling processes and utilizing the strategy of this waste. An attempt is made to this review the processes by which these wastes can be converted into environmental friendly products using different microorganisms and earthworms. Composting and vermicomposting are suggested practice recycling agricultural waste to …

Evaluation of Shelf-life of Low-fat Paneer from Reconstituted Milk
Abstract: Low-fat paneer was prepared from reconstituted milk (1.5 % fat/12.0 % MSNF) using WPC-80 as fat replacer. It was packed in 12 m polyester + 50 m LD/LLDPE laminated pouches and stored at refrigeration temperature (7+2 °C). The shelf-life of paneer was checked on the basis of sensory and microbiological evaluation. Chemical parameters viz. acidity, free fatty acids and soluble nitrogen content as well as textural properties were also analysed …
