Folk terminology for Diarrhea in rural Bangladesh
(Oxford University Press, 1991-03-01)Diarrhea, a descriptive term used in medical science for a variety of clinical diseases denotes an illness that is categorized differently and known by numerous terms in various cultures. These diversified classifications ... -
Isolation and characterization of Bacteriophages from surface water specific for Vibrio Cholerae
(Brac University, 2020-01)The severe diarrheal disease cholera is caused by the bacterium Vibrio cholera. Toxigenic Vibrio cholerae strains belonging to O1 and O139 serogroups are the causative agents of epidemic and pandemic cholera. The Vibrio ... -
Isolation of bacteriophage from sewage water samples specific for Vibriocholerae

Isolation of E. coli phages from environmental water samples and analysis of their effect on periodic epidemics of cholera
(BRAC University, 2017-09)Cholera is a deadly infectious disease caused by the pathogen Vibrio cholerae. In our country cholera epidemics occur seasonally. Two peaks of outbreaks nicely coincide with dry season and monsoon rain. Several factors ... -
Isolation of Lytic Bacteriophages from Environmental water samples specific to Vibrio cholerae; software-based analysis of whole-genome using bioinformatics tools
(Brac University, 2020-08)Vibrio cholerae is an opportunistic, gram-negative bacterium that is commonly found in fresh and saltwater, soil, food, or in the intestine of humans and animals. It is the most causative agent of cholera; a chronic diarrheal ... -
Isolation, characterization and comparative analysis of multi-drug resistant acinetobacter baumannii & vibrio cholerae from hospital wastewater and its adjacent community supply water in Dhaka north
(Brac University, 2023-06)Acinetobacter baumannii is a Gram-negative bacillus which shows characteristics of obligate aerobe. It is pleomorphic and non-motile. An opportunistic and nosocomial pathogen, A. baumannii has been designated as “red alert”. ... -
A novel vaccine designing approach through analyzing computational tools against pathogenic vibrio cholerae’s outer membrane protein of O1 strain as adjuvant
(Brac University, 2022-10)Cholera epidemic, history denotes it as “The Blue Death'', a deoxygenated, dehydrated death of humans due to the bacterial species named Vibrio Cholerae. When the sanitation system is extremely devastated by the purity ... -
Production of polyclonal antisera of vibrio cholerae O1 & O139 to detect pathogenic vibrio cholerae
(Brac University, 2023-01)Cholera is endemic in Bangladesh due to serogroup O1, and people are still suffering from the disease seasonally in this geographic area. So, detecting the disease as soon as possible and making availability of materials ... -

Trends of multidrug resistance phenotypes in vibrio cholerae causing cholera in Bangladesh
(Brac University, 2023-06)Antibiotic resistance is a growing global concern, posing significant challenges in the treatment of bacterial infections. Vibrio cholerae, a gram-negative bacterium responsible for the severe diarrheal disease cholera, ... -
Understanding the effect of exposure of human pathogens to polluted surface water: Vibrio cholerae as a model organism
(BRAC University, 2018)Urbanization and industrialization results in the fecal organisms contaminating the water-bodies which are important sources of recreational activities. This eventually increases the risk of humans getting infected during ...
