In this study, search for new mosquitocidal bacterium was attempted from the gut content of fresh water fish Clarias batrachus (walking cat fish) which resulted in isolation a highly potential bacterium. The isolate identified as Bacillus cereus VCRC 641 by species specific molecular markers ilvD, pur and pycA gene sequence analysis. Laboratory mosquito larval toxicity assay (bioassay) against ...

Lysinibacillus sphaericus is a species that contains strains widely used in the biological control of mosquitoes. Here, we present the complete 4.67-Mb genome of the WHO entomopathogenic reference strain L. sphaericus 2362, which is probably one of the most commercialized and studied strains. Genes coding for mosquitocidal toxin proteins were detected.

abstract among rhizospheric bacteria, great attention has been paid to the group of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria (pgpr), and their role in increasing the growth and health of plants. therefore, it is used largely as inoculum all over the world. the rhizospheric bacterium, which has the genus of flavobacterium, and promotes plants growth, has been studied in recent years. in the present ...

BACKGROUND The ethanolic extract of the leaves of Ocimium gratisimum L. (Lamiaceae), used in traditional medicine for the treatment of several ailments such as urinary tract, wound, skin and gastrointestinal infections, was evaluated for its antibacterial properties against four clinical bacteria isolates namely: Escherichia coli, Proteus mirabilis, Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aerugin...

Abstract Breast milk is a very nutritional food that helps with the production of good microbiota in gut an infant. Generally, two lactic acid bacteria (LAB), namely Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium , are related to infant microbiota. LAB often used as probiotic agent, but some conditions required for every bacterium be utilized this purpose. This study aimed investigate bile salt tolerance cr...

ABSTRACT: This study was aimed at probiotication of tomato and carrot juices using Lactobacillus plantarum, Lb. fermentum, Lb. casei, Lysinibacillus sphaericus and Saccharomyces boulardii. To enhance the stability, the probiotic cultures were micro-encapsulated using alginate coated chitosan beads. Tomato and carrot juice samples were pasteurized for 20 min at 63 °C. Lb. fermentum, Lb. plantara...

187 commercial checken flocks affected with respiratory diseases were examined for ornithobacterium rhinotracheale isolation. the bacterium was isolated from 105 (56.2%) poultry flocks. drug sensitivity test using standard disk diffusion technique was performed with 19 antibiotics. all the isolates were susceptible to tiamulin and most of them were susceptible to chloramphenicol and linco-spect...

Lysinibacillus sphaericus strain OT4b.31 is a native Colombian strain having no larvicidal activity against Culex quinquefasciatus and is widely applied in the bioremediation of heavy-metal polluted environments. Strain OT4b.31 was placed between DNA homology groups III and IV. By gap-filling and alignment steps, we propose a 4,096,672 bp chromosomal scaffold. The whole genome (consisting of 4,...
