Characterization of an ethanol producing yeast isolate and optimization of ethanol fermentation
(BRAC University, 2011-11)
Bioethanol or biofuel as an alternative to fossil fuels has been expanded in the last few decades
in the whole world. Saccharomyces cerevisiae is the choice of organism for ethanol production.
Characterization of an ...
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 ...
Calpain 10 gene SNP-44 T>C polymorphism in type 2 diabetes mellitus of Bangladeshi origin
(BRAC University, 2010-03)
Insulin resistance and/or B cell secretory defect have been accepted as the fundamental
features in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes mellitus, though the exact molecular
defect affecting the insulin secretion or ...

(BRAC University, 2017-07)
Escherichia coli O157:H7 is an extremely pathogenic organism that produces a potent Shiga toxin which can cause a number of brutal diseases like Hemorrhagic Colitis (bloody diarrhoea), renal failure causing Hemolytic Uremic ...
Quorum regulated resistance of E. coli against environmental bacteriophages
(Brac University, 2019-09)
Predation of bacteria by their corresponding phages have a significant influence on the population structure of different communities of bacteria. E. coli infection has become a safety concern globally and they are causing ...
