Locally isolated yeasts from Malaysia: identification, phylogenetic study and characterization.

Locally isolated yeasts from Malaysia: identification, phylogenetic study and characterization.

Yeasts are a convenient platform for many applications. They have been widely used as the expression hosts. There is a need to have a new yeast expression system to contribute the molecular cloning demands. Eight yeast isolates were screened from various environment sources and identified through ribosomal DNA (rDNA) Internal Transcribed Spacer (ITS). Full sequence of the rDNA ITS region for ea...

Identification of Yeasts and Bacteria Isolated From Iranian Kefir Drink

Implication for health policy/practice/research/medical education: Originally different kefir grains may contain various microbial complexes. The beneficial effects of probiotic microorganisms vary from strain to strain and condition to condition. Knowing their microbial characterizations is needed for the safety confirmation.

Bioactivity of endophytic bacteria and yeasts isolated from Thymus

Endophytes are important resources of bioactive compounds and due to their potential in theproduction of secondary metabolites, they are regarded as a potential reservoir ofbiotechnological applications. In this study, the bioactivity of bacteria and yeasts endophytesresiding in Thymus sp. was evaluated. During April to October 2011, symptomless and healthytissues of Thymus sp. were collected. ...

Molecular Characterization and Phylogenetic Study of Newcastle Disease Viruses Isolated in Iran, 2014–2015

Newcastle disease (ND) is a highly contagious disease that affects many species of birds and causes significant economic losses to the poultry industry worldwide and the pathogenicity of Newcastle disease virus (NDV) strains varies with different virulence. Samples were collected from chicken commercial farms in Iran during 2014–2015. ND virus were characterized (NDV) by partial sequences...
