Biased acquisition of spacers by the CRISPR System of the V. cholerae
(Brac University, 2021-09)Cholera is a deadly waterborne disease that is caused by the serogroup of O1 or O139 of Vibrio cholerae. Also, there are many non-pathogenic Vibrio cholerae strains known as non-O1 and non-O139. Bacteriophages are bacteria ... -
Degrading Vibrio cholerae Biofilms with Bacteriophage and potential combined effect of phage and antibiotic on biofilms
(Brac University, 2022-11)Vibrio cholerae is a gram-negative coccobacillus known as the causative agent of cholera- a gastrointestinal disease endemic to developing and underdeveloped countries, Bangladesh being one of them. The ability to form ... -
Isolation and molecular characterization of e.coli bacteriophages from surface water of Bangladesh
(Brac University, 2019-12)In our country Diarrheal epidemics occur seasonally. Two peaks of outbreaks agreeably coincide with dry season and monsoon rain. Several factors control the outbreaks to occur and collapse. Bacteriophages are one of them ... -
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 ... -
Multiplex PCR (polymerase chain reaction) assay for detection of E. coli O157:H7, Salmonella sp., Vibrio cholerae and Vibrio parahaemolyticus in spiked shrimps (Penaeus monodon)
(© 2013 Pakistan Journal of Biological Sciences, 2013)The coastal aquaculture mainly shrimps constitute major export sector in Bangladesh and is increasingly shaped by international trade conditions and by national responses to those stringent quality and safety standards. ... -
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 ... -
A study on the effect of genome size on the multiplication rate of bacteriophages
(Brac University, 2019-09)Bacteriophages encapsidated by a protein coat have the competency of infecting bacteria, are the most abundant living entities on earth whose genome in general falls into three size ranges and 30-50kbp genetic material ... -
Studying vibrio spp. in industrially polluted surface waters : difficulties and uncertainities during characterization
(BRAC University, 2018-11)4 Abstract . Being the capital of Bangladesh Dhaka city faces multiple pollution problems due to rapid urbanization leading to unplanned industrialization. This often results in the contamination of water bodies with ... -
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 ...
