Bacteria isolated from various culture samples

In this study, with the aim of determining and assessing the influence of several culture conditions on the ligninolytic enzyme (LiP, MnP, and Lac) activity of bacteria, five lignin-degrading bacteria strains were isolated from two different soil samples and cultured on minimum salt medium agar containing alkaline lignin (MSML agar). Among the five isolated strains, DL1 and X3 expressed strong and stable ligninase enzyme activity at various temperature levels (30C, 37C, 50C, and 60C) and were selected for further study.

Nosocomial infection is a key factor in determining clinical outcomes among patients admitted in intensive care units. Studies on nosocomial infections in ICUs found that respiratory tract infections, blood stream infections, urinary tract infections and soft tissue infections are the common nosocomial infections in ICUs. These organisms causing nosocomial infections are highly resistant to antibiotics. Early recognition of bacteria and appropriate antimicrobial therapy are essential for controlling infection, preventing the morbidity and improve the quality of life.

A total of 10 samples were collected from Agricultural waste dump sites from various areas of Ladakh and 12 isolates of bacteria were isolated using Nutrient Agar medium. The optimal cultural conditions, microbiological characteristics, biochemical characteristics, antagonistic and synergistic activities within the strains and production of extracellular enzymes of the bacterial strains were documented. Colonies were isolated, cultured and characterized by gram staining and biochemical tests. Six isolates were found to be gram negative while 4 were gram positive.

Coagulase-Negative Staphylococcus (CoNS) comprise an ever-expanding group of bacteria whose medical importance has emerged in the past decades. They have become one of the most frequent nosocomial pathogens isolated from blood cultures, often in association with intravascular devices and as a cause of deep-seated prosthetic implant infections (Parameswaran et al., 2011).

The search for new antibiotics continues in a rather overlooked hunting ground. In this study screening for new antibiotic-producing microorganisms, isolates showing antimicrobial activity were isolated from soil samples of various habitats in the coastal region of Ganga, Neeldhara river bank, and K.G.M.campus, Haridwar, Uttarakhand, India. 29 isolates of actinomycetes were isolated from soil samples collected in the area of various localities of Haridwar region.

Bacterial infections are most commonly encountered by clinicians in developing countries. Area-specific monitoring studies done to assess the type of pathogens and their antibiotic sensitivity patterns which help the clinician to opt for best empirical treatment. The hospital based cross sectional study is conducted on various samples collected using sterile techniques from 2474 clinically-suspected cases attending RDBP, Jaipuriya Hospital from Jan 2016 to Dec 2017 and tested bacteriologically using standard conventional procedures.

Bovine mastitis cause severe economic losses resulting from reduced milk production, treatment cost, increased labour, milk withheld following treatment and increased cost of veterinary services. Escherichia coli is one of the major environmental pathogen associated with clinical mastitis. Therefore the present study was done to know the incidence of clinical mastitis caused by E. coli in the Proddatur region of Andhra Pradesh by means of culture and confirmation by Polymerase Chain reaction (PCR).

The xanthan gum is an exopolysaccharide of the microbial origin, produced by the bacteria of the Xanthomonas spp. In the present study Xanthomonas spp were obtained from cabbage leaves and lemon sample. The isolates were coded as SC1 and SC4. From various cultural, morphological and biochemical characteristics the bacteria were identified as belonging to Xanthomonas spp. The bacteria were then tested for production of Xanthan in the fermentation medium. Measurement of viscosity and residual sugar was carried out. The effect of different carbon sources on its production was also tested.

The use of indwelling devices both temporary and permanent, in medical and surgical practice has led to the emergence of implant associated infections in the patients admitted in a Tertiary care hospital leading to partial or complete therapeutic failure. The study was conducted to detect and compare biofilm production in bacteria isolated from device related (DR) and non-device related (NDR) infections by Tissue Culture Method (TCP).

Microbes are the sources of many food poisoning cases, usually due to improperly processed food and fruit juice separation by hand or juice mill. It is now commonly accepted that fruit juice consumption is a risk factor for infection with enteric pathogens. The trouble begins when certain bacteria and other harmful pathogens spores of multiply and spread in ubiquitous and environments. However, fruit juice Sample was collected from the various places of Kanpur, India and observed the highest microbial load in nutrient agar (4.3X107 ) viz., Shivrajpur, rose bengal chloramphenicol agar (2.

Urinary tract infection (UTI) is a common disease affecting especially infants and young children. The clinical presentations are diverse, from an unaffected infant with asymptomatic bacteriuria to a severely septic child. Accurate and timely diagnosis and treatment is important for the prevention of long-term morbidity and sequelae (e.g. hypertension, proteinuria, and chronic kidney disease). The purpose of the present study was to determine the validity of rapidly diagnostic tests for the early detection of UTIs in paediatric patients. Total 247 midstream urine specimens were processed.

Mobile communication devices help accelerate the hospital flow of medical information but can serve as a "foe" for the patients when they act as a potential vector for transmitting nosocomial infections. This study aimed to describe the role of the cell phones in transmitting bacteria to dominant hands of the HCW’s in the various ICU’s as MediCiti Institute of Medical Sciences, emphasizing the role of mobiles in the spread of HAI. It was a cross-sectional study including HCW’s at various ICU’s in our hospital.
