A review paper on developing novel antiviral strategies against pathogenic RNA viruses
(Brac University, 2021-02)
Human disease causing RNA viruses are a major concern for people worldwide as many of the diseases caused by pathogenic RNA viruses pose great threat to health and exhibit significant mortality. Some of the dangerous RNA ...
Validation of energy-related vacuolar subunit gene Pc_PVA1 from wild halophyte Pc in salt sensitive commercial rice, BR75
(Brac University, 2020-07)
The study was conducted on transgenic rice, BR75, a high-yielding but salt-sensitive genotype
previously transformed with the Pc_PVA1 gene, at the Plant biotechnology Laboratory of Dhaka
University. The aim was to ...
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 ...
In vitro antimicrobial, antihemolytic potential of gallic acid and its combined effect with metronidazole against pathogenic bacteria
(Brac University, 2022-11)
Multidrug-resistant (MDR) or extensive drug-resistant (XDR) pathogenic bacteria pose a grave threat to human and animal health on a global scale. Plant-derived phytochemicals including alkaloids, flavonoids, and terpenoids ...
The combination of bacteriophage therapy and antibiotic therapy
(Brac University, 2021-06)
Antibiotic resistance has become a major problem of current time. A lot of deadly bacterial pathogens have become resistant to antibiotics. In addition, pathogens like P.aeruginosa, E.coli, Acinetobacter baumannii and many ...
Industrially beneficial microbes from kitchen waste: A green approach to produce Cellulase Enzyme and optimization of culture condition
(Brac University, 2022)
Bacterial cellulases nowadays have been gaining considerable attention due to its enormous
use in biotechnology. The study here was pursued with the aim to isolate cellulolytic bacterial
strains from kitchen wastes ...
The combined effect of Moxifloxacin and Ciprofloxacin against multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae
(Brac University, 2022)
People, particularly children under the age of five suffer from pneumonia. One of the supreme pathogens of Pneumonia is Klebsiella pneumoniae which needs to be treated but it’s being burdensome because organisms are getting ...
Target specificity of different phytochemicals in preventing the binding of OxLDL To LOX-1: An in silico approach
(Brac University, 2022-06)
With an estimated 17.9 million deaths each year, cardiovascular disease (CVD), particularly
myocardial infarction (MI), is the leading cause of death globally. Most MIs are caused by thrombi
that form over ruptured ...
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, ...
Assessing the interspecies and intraspecies diversity of Cas1 and Cas3 proteins of the CRISPR-Cas system in vibrio cholera and Escherichia coli strains
(Brac University, 2021-12)
Cholera is an extremely virulent waterborne disease caused by the ingestion of food or water contaminated with pathogenic strains of Vibrio cholerae. On the other hand, pathogenic strains of E. coli, particularly Shiga-toxin ...
