Elucidating the Origin of Tetrodotoxin in Pleurobranchaea maculata and Stylochoplana sp.

open access: yes, 2015
Tetrodotoxin (TTX) is an extremely potent neurotoxin that acts by selectively targeting voltage gated sodium channels blocking propagation of action potentials.

Isolation and Characterization of Antioxidant-Producing Thermophilic Bacteria from Tatapani Hot Spring, Chhattisgarh, India [PDF]

open access: yes
Background: Oxidative stress, caused by an imbalance between reactive oxygen species (ROS) and antioxidant defences, is implicated in numerous degenerative diseases. The search for natural antioxidants has led to the exploration of thermophilic bacteria,

Effect of different fertilization treatments on indole-3-acetic acid producing bacteria in soil

open access: yes, 2011
Soil microorganisms directly affect the growth of plants. Especially, plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) play an important role in plant growth.

Self-pigmenting textiles grown from cellulose-producing bacteria with engineered tyrosinase expression

open access: yesNature Biotechnology
Environmental concerns are driving interest in postpetroleum synthetic textiles produced from microbial and fungal sources. Bacterial cellulose (BC) is a promising sustainable leather alternative, on account of its material properties, low infrastructure

Identifying TTX Producing Bacteria in Bipalium kewense and Bipalium adventitium

open access: yes
Terrestrial planarians such as Bipalium kewense and B. adventitium contain a neurotoxin called tetrodotoxin (TTX). TTX inhibits voltage-gated sodium channels, which blocks neurotransmission and paralyzes the muscles.

Prevalence and genetic characterization of shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli isolates from slaughtered animals in Bangladesh

open access: yes, 2008
To determine the prevalence of Shiga toxin (Stx)-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) in slaughter animals in Dhaka, Bangladesh, we collected rectal contents immediately after animals were slaughtered.

Urease-Producing Halophilic Bacteria Isolated from Bahr Al-Milh Salt Lake, Karbala, Iraq

open access: yes, 2017
Salt lakes represent an extreme habitat for prokaryotes which tolerate significant concentration of NaCl. Many studies on screening and characterization of these microorganisms have been done, however, very little reported about urease producer ...

2-Haloacid dehalogenase-producing bacteria diversity isolated from marine sponge Hymeniacidon perlevis

open access: yes, 2008
Dehalogenases are important for the bioremediation of increased pollutions by halogen-containing compounds in the environment. 2-Haloacid dehalogenase catalyzes the dehalogenation of 2-haloalkanoic acids to produce the corresponding 2- hydroxyalkanoic ...
