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 ...
The potentiality of bacteriophage on biofilm treatment
(Brac University, 2021-01)
Bacteria can exist both in a planktonic state and within a biofilm. The bacteria remain inert within biofilm. Due to their extracellular matrix, problem arises for the effectivity of antibiotics and biocides. However, ...
Isolation and characterization of bacteriophage from environmental water samples specific for Klebsiella pneumoniae
(BRAC Univeristy, 2018-01)
Klebsiella pneumoniae is a clinically important pathogen that is frequently associated with multidrug resistance. Recently, some of its strains have acquired superbug status. Over time it is getting difficult to treat ...
Bacteriophage mediated inter & intraspecies chromosomal gene transfer
(Brac University, 2023-04)
Although many different methods of horizontal gene transfer have already been identified, and the effect of bacteriophages on horizontal chromosomal gene transfer is yet to be well studied. Bacteriophages are linked to ...
Isolation and Characterization of E. coli Bacteriophage from Raw Meat and Environment Water
(Brac University, 2023-12)
Several diseases such as stomach cramps, urinary tract infections, and diarrhea are caused by the bacterium Escherichia coli. One of the five subtypes of E. coli which are ETEC, EPEC, EAEC, EHEC/STEC, and EIEC are responsible ...
