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 ... -
Structural analysis of three pivotal SERK dependent PRR complexes of Arabidopsis thaliana
(Brac University, 2021-01)Pattern Triggered Immunity (PTI) is distinguished with the activities of pattern recognition receptors (PRRs), which play an essential role in plant defense mechanism. During aggression of microbes, PRRs immediately bind ... -
Structural dynamics of PRR FLS2, PAMP flg22 and mutated co-receptor BAK1 of Arabidopsis thaliana
(Brac University, 2021-03)Pattern-triggered immunity (PTI) acts as the first layer of defense that is deployed by plants in order to avert microbial invasions. It is actually identified by the activities of patternrecognition receptors (PRRs), ... -
Studies on physico-chemical and microbiological qualities of some selected brand of mango fruit juice of Bangladesh

Study of GLUT-4 and AMPK gene expression and phosphorylation of AMPK protein in Oyster Mushroom induced Type 2 diabetic model rats
(BRAC University, 2017)Type-2 diabetes mellitus is a complex and heterogeneous disorder which is depends upon insulin resistance and later insulin insufficiency and recognize by impaired insulin sensitivity as well as hyperglycemia, thus it ... -
Study of low cost biofuel production from vegetable waste
(BRAC University, 2017-01)The necessity of an alternate clean energy source is increasing with the elevating energy demand of modern age. Microbial production of bioethanol can be the requirement of a substitute clean energy source is accumulative ... -
A study on hematological parameters of tuberculosis patients in Bangladesh
(BRAC University, 2018-11)Among all the infectious diseases, tuberculosis (TB) remains the deadliest. In 2017, the World Health Organization (WHO) ranked Bangladesh 6th among the world’s 22 high-burden TB countries. In this study various hematological ... -
Study on Salmonella Typhi-Isolation, characterization and immunological studies
(BRAC University, 2009)Typhoid fever is one of the most common febrile illnesses and its real impact is difficult to estimate because the clinical picture is confused with other febrile infections. Various diagnostic techniques are used for ... -
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 ... -
