Comparative study of the presence of stx1 and stx2 genes from clinical and environmental samples of Shigella
(BRAC University, 2017-03)
Shigellosis, a disease caused by Shigella spp. occur because of the presence of stx1 and stx2
genes. Shigellaspp. Sometimes escapes detection by the traditional culture methods. Bacterial
isolates were chosen on the basis ...
Assessing the amount of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and the amount of Heavy metals, Lead (Pb) and Chromium (Cr) from household water from different industrial zones of Dhaka Division (Hazaribagh and Savar)
(Brac University, 2019-12)
Water is the major natural reservoir of the atmosphere - not so much in volume as in time and
contact. Water is the indispensable environment resource for human security, the driven force
of engines of sustainable ...
IN VITRO culture establishment from hypocotyl and cotyledon explants of two Bangladeshi sunflower (Helianthus annuus L. ) varieties
(BRAC University, 2015-03)
Sunflower (Helianthus annuus.L) is the world’s second most important oilseed crop. Plant tissue culture and gene transformation are the important tools for improvement of this crop. The purposes of this study are to optimize ...
Antimicrobial activities of lactoferrin extracted from commercially available milk samples
(BRAC University, 2017-08)
Lactoferrin, an iron-binding glycoprotein with multifunctional properties is crucial to strengthening the immune system and also useful for commercial applications. The protein’s iron-binding capacity makes it undoubtedly ...
A statistical correlation between virulence genes and clinical features among patients with shigellosis in Mirzapur, Bangladesh
(BRAC University, 2016-09)
Even though, the annual number of Shigella episodes or fatalities are not as terrifying as was reported in 1999, these numbers are still unacceptable. Shigella spp. is still contributing to about 800,000 deaths globally ...

(BRAC Univeristy, 2018-05)
Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) is a worldwide phenomenon in modern times which is increasing the dependency on antibiotics for its treatment. The current study was conducted in order to find alternatives to antibiotics by ...
Quantisation of Black hole horizon area and multipartite entanglement of Black hole information subsystems
(Brac University, 2019-12)
We formulate a model consisting of multipartite entanglement that helps provide a
physical significance to the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy obtained after quantising
the horizon area of a black hole as proposed by Jacob ...
Optical solitons in negative-index meta-materials
(© 2013 IEEE, 2013)
The nonlinear propagation of gigahertz electromagnetic wave propagation in the resonant region of a negative index meta-material is investigated. It is found that the negative refractive index is maintained within a narrow ...
