Comparison of genotypic and phenotypic method for detection of Enterotoxigenic Escheichia coli isolated from diarrheal patients
(BRAC University, 2010-11)
Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) is one of the main causes of childhood diarrhea
and in travelers in developing countries . ETEC expresses one or both of two different
enterotoxin subtypes : heat-stable toxins ...
Study on SOD1 GENE +35A>C polymorphism in impaired glucose regulation patients of Bangladeshi origin
(BRAC University, 2014-07)
Superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1), located at the cytosol has been postulated to represent
between 50%-80% of the total SOD activity. The SOD gene is located at 21q22.1.
Polymorphisms in the genes encoding these enzymes found ...
Relation of chest HRCT scan findings with hematological, biochemical, and immunological parameters of hospitalized Covid-19 patients in a tertiary hospital in Chattogram city
(Brac University, 2023-03)
The chest HRCT scan can be used as a diagnostic tool for COVID-19 disease in cases of clinical suspicion, false-negative RT-PCR, or unavailability of the test. The study aimed to investigate the relation of HRCT findings ...

(BRAC University, 2015-04)
E. coli O157:H7, a Shiga toxin producing microbe was first acknowledged as a virulent organism in 1982 during an analysis of an outbreak of haemorrhagic colitis associated with consumption of hamburgers from a fast food ...
Development of Immune response in different age groups of children from Birth to 2 years of age
(BRAC University, 2011-12)
Human neonates are markedly more susceptible to infection than are older children or
adults. This increased susceptibility is generally believed to be due to immaturity of the
immune system to combat pathogens in both ...
Studies on isolation of yeasts from natural sources for bioethanol production from vegetable peels and the role of cellulose degrading bacteria (Bacillus subtilis) on ethanol production
(BRAC University, 2015-08)
The requirement of an alternative clean energy source is increasing with the elevating energy demand of modern age. Microbial production of bioethanol can replace the conventional fossil fuel with green energy. In this ...
