This study was carried out to isolate, screen and characterize arsenic (As) resistant bacteria from As contaminated soils of Dumrakandi and Matlab under Faridpur and Chandpur districts and to evaluate their efficiency in reducing As toxicity against rice seedlings during germination. Thirteen strains were isolated from the soils which showed resistance to different levels of sodium arsenite (viz. 5, 10, 20 and 40 mM) in both agar plate and broth assay using BSMY I media. Among the isolates, BTL0011, BTL0012, BTL0015 and BTL0022 showed highest resistance to 40 mM sodium arsenite. Gram staining and KOH solubility test revealed that five strains were gram positive and rest eight was gram negative. They grew well in the liquid media at pH 5.5 to 8.5. In-vitro rice seedling bioassay with two superior isolates (BTL0011 and BTL0022) revealed that As resistant strains significantly enhanced seed germination of BRRI dhan29 and BRRI dhan47 at 60 ppm As. This study was laid out in CRD with three replications. The performance of BTL 0022 was superior to BTL0011. The overall results suggest that BTL0011 and BTL0022 can be used for bioremediation of As contaminated soils and to increase the germination and seedling growth of rice in As contaminated soils.Res.

Marine environment remained as largely unexplored source for researchers to discover marine microorganisms with novel properties. This study aims to isolate marine bacteria from the seashore of Desaru, Malaysia. Totally, six bacterial strains were successfully obtained and were identified by complete 16S rRNA sequencing. The characterizations of bacterial strains were performed based on morphological tests, Gram-staining, biochemical tests, and antibiotic sensitivity. The 16S rRNA sequence of D-2, D-4, D-7, D-15, D-31, and D-33 revealed a high identity of 97 to 99% with taxa belong to genera of Pseudomonas, Marinomonas, Exiquobacterium, Micrococcus, Pseudoalteromonas, and Shewanella respectively. Strain D-31 exhibited higher tolerance towards antibiotics kanamycin, ampicillin, and erythromycin while the growth of other strains were retarded by at least two of these antibiotics. We further characterized strain D-4 and D-31 that belonged to Marinomonas sp. and Pseudoalteromonas sp.. Both genera are interesting as earlier researchers have discovered new antibacterial substances, industrial enzymes and unique secondary metabolites.

Abstract The aim of this study was to isolate and characterize the Phosphate solubilizing bacteria from the rhizosphere of Zea mays L., Jeneponto Regency. This research was conducted in several stages; i.e, sampling, medium preparation, sample dilution, isolation, characterization in the form of gram staining, biochemical tests, and quantitative tests of phosphate solubility. Soil samples were diluted in 0.9% NaCl and soil containing microbes was isolated on the Picovskaya medium. Three isolates were obtained which could dissolve phosphate, namely J2KN1, J3KR2, and J3TG3 isolates. The isolates were generally round in shape with raised elevations, white, slimy, smooth, shiny surface, milky white, shape like coccus and bacillus, and gram-negative. Some of the isolates had positive motility, indole, voges, methyl red, glucose, and sucrose fermentation in the biochemical test. The quantitative tests of the ability to dissolve phosphate showed that J2KN1 isolate had the highest concentration of 51.1 μM, and the J3KR1 and J3TG3 isolates had a concentration of 45.2 μM and 37.6 μM, respectively.

Abstract Medicinal plants are necessary benefit natural sources for chemical production of different therapies from secondary metabolism. Allium porrum is considered as one of sources of foods and drugs at the same time. So the current work focused on isolation and characterization of four alkaloids from seeds of this plant. These compounds are 2-piperidinone, 2-pyrrolidinone-4-methyl, adenosine-2-deoxy–N-methyl –N-(triflouro acetyl ) and maymarsine by using Gas Chromatography – Mass Spectroscopy (GC-MS) technique. The medicinal activity was achieved to investigate and evaluate the synergistic action of the mixture of the four alkaloidic compounds towards Staphylococcus aureus pathogen. The concentrations of alkaloidic mixture were prepared with values equal to 50,100,125,150,200,250,300,375,400 and 500 mg/ml and they revealed inhibition zones with diameters represented by 31,31,32,35,35,37,41,43,43and 45 mm. So the mixture of the four alkaloidic compounds can be used as natural therapy to treat various inflammatory caused by this pathogenic bacteria.

Scientific studies demonstrate the importance of intestinal microbiota to human health and how probiotic microorganisms can positively affect health when administered regularly and in adequate amounts. Probiotic bacteria can be part of fermented products and their functional importance is associated mainly with their metabolism. They are thought to benefit individuals to maintain their health and also to strengthen resistance against various types of diseases. The acceptance of probiotic cultures and products by consumers increased when these bacteria were marketed as natural cultures that help in digestion and health. Considering this, the food industry has an increasing demand for new candidates as probiotic cultures, and the dairy industry has a particular interest for fermented milks and other dairy products, since these are the most common food vehicles for probiotic cultures. Therefore, the dairy industries are increasingly seeking to improve their products with these beneficial bacteria. However, the legal peculiarities and excess of control agencies in Brazil makes the registration of these products and the collection of data very complex. Prospective analysis suggests that probiotic foods have the potential to effect a considerable expansion of the dairy industry, allowing the dairy sector to grow and for these products to be increasingly sought by consumers globally. For this, not only actions on research and innovation are necessary, but also official clarifications on the claims for considerations of microbiological security and functionality of these products. This review aims to elucidate important probiotic research regarding the isolation and characterization of beneficial cultures in Brazil, and to demonstrate the relevance of the dairy chain as a potential source of novel cultures for the development of new probiotic products to expand the Brazilian dairy industry.

ABSTRACT Of 3,063 ready-to-eat food samples tested, 91 (2.97%) were positive for Listeria monocytogenes, and lineage 1 strains outnumbered lineage 2 strains 57 to 34. Seventy-one isolates (78%) exhibited multiple antibiotic resistance, and an L. monocytogenes-specific bacteriophage cocktail lysed 65 of 91 (71%) isolates. Determining phage, acid, and antibiotic susceptibility phenotypes enabled us to identify differences among strains which were otherwise indistinguishable by conventional methods.
