Degradation of dyes used in textile Industries by bacteria isolated from local textile effluents
(BRAC University, 2017-06)The effluent discharges from textile processing industries contain a significant amount of unreacted dyes. Release of these dyes into the environment causes toxic effects to the environment. The application of microorganisms ... -
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 ... -
Demystifying lanthanomes: a pangenomic approach
(Brac University, 2023-04)Certain members of multi-generic, gram negative proteobacteria (newly named pseudomonatota) have recently been reported to be capable of successfully utilizing the catalytic potential of lanthanide metals for the efficient ... -
Detection of antibiotic resistance spectrum and resistance genes for aminoglycoside, macrolide, and β-lactam antibiotics using wound swab samples
(Brac University, 2020-01)Antibiotic resistance has become a global health problem with a decrease in efficacy in treating common infections, resulting in increased sufferings, duration of hospital stay and economic burden. Infections in the wound ... -
Detection of beta globin gene mutations in thalassemia patients in Bangladesh and correlation with hematological parameters
(Brac University, 2018-12)β-thalassemia and hemoglobin E (Hb E) diseases are highly prevalent autosomal recessive disorders characterized by the reduced or absent expression of the β globin gene. β-thalassemia is now regarded as the most common ... -
Detection of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi by nested PCR using different procedures of nucleic acid extraction
(BRAC University, 2010-05)Typhoid fever is one of the major health problems in Bangladesh. It is caused by the bacterium Salmonella enterica serover Typhi (S. Typhi). The infection rate of S. Typhi is higher in children. The conventional diagnostic ... -
Development of a cost effective medium for enhanced production of Bacillus thuringiensis δ-endotoxin
(BRAC University, 2014-10)The control of pest populations by using bacteria as insect pathogens has been an attractive alternative to the application of chemical pesticides. As chemicals cause damage to the environment, biological control is ... -
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 ... -
Development of improved quality Yogurt in terms of texture, flavor, food value and low cost
(BRAC University, 2015-03-14)The present study is concerned with how to develop improved quality yogurt in terms of texture, flavor, food value and low cost. Natural flora and traditional flavor in yogurt of indigenous varieties have been continuously ... -
Development of in-vitro bio-assay for The bioactivity determination of human Erythropoietin (rHuEPO) bio-pharmaceutical products (November 2020 - August 2021)
(Brac University, 2021-10)Erythropoietin is mainly secreted by the kidney and involved in the growth and maturation of erythroid cells from precursors (Jelkmann, et al, 2013). Insufficient production of EPO could result in anemia. Considering ... -
Dust mite allergy and the significance of different immunotherapies to treat It.
(Brac University, 2022-03)Dust mite allergy is an inflammatory reaction to microscopic insects that reside in household dust. Dust mite allergy symptoms include those associated with hay fever, such as sneezing and a runny nose. Many persons ... -
Effect of D122N mutation in BAK1 on structural integrity of protein complex consisting FLS2, flg22 and BAK1 ectodomain- a molecular dynamics study”
(Brac University, 2020-01)Elongated (elg) phenotype of Arabidopsis thaliana is caused by D122N mutation in the third leucine repeat of BRI1-associated kinase 1 (BAK1) protein that changes the 122nd amino acid aspartate to asparagine. The mutation ... -
Effect of environmental seasons in the epidemiology of waterborne diseases: a review
(Brac University, 2023-02)The effects of seasonal climate change are uncertain because of the complicated links between seasonal climate and waterborne illnesses. It is so challenging to predict which waterborne diseases will be most impacted, what ... -
