Effects of horizontal gene transfer on bacteriophage infectivity
(Brac University, 2024-02)Bacterial infections and its treatment has been a concern for researchers and scientists for centuries. At first, the invention and treatment with antibiotics seemed like a promising and reliable solution to the problem. ... -
Horizontal transfer of antibiotic resistance in surface water of Dhaka City
(Brac University, 2019-05)Horizontal gene transfer is one of the most widespread phenomenon by which bacteria evolve themselves in the environment. Such transfer is often reported to be responsible for spreading antibiotic resistance genes in nature. ... -
A review on antibiotic resistant bacteria found in Dhaka water supply
(Brac University, 2023-05)The unsafe water supply of Dhaka city causes concern for public health. This review work aims to identify whether antibiotic resistant bacteria are available in Dhaka water supply. According to the collected 25 articles ... -
The significance of horizontal gene transfer in the formation of bacterial biofilm
(Brac University, 2023-07)Different publication and research papers indicate that horizontal gene transfer is interrelated with the process of biofilm formation. Horizontal transfer is also known as HGT. We know that plasmid is a small extrachromosomal ... -
Using synergic relation between bacteriophage and a bacterial species for checking the effects of antibiotic resistance genes on the lytic property of bacteriophages.
(Brac University, 2021)Bacterial transformation is a process of horizontal gene transfer (hgt) where a few bacteria pick up foreign genetic material from the environment. In terms of newer therapies being applied, antimicrobial resistance is ...
