In many fields of medicine, biotechnology is an already proven method, but its implementation in the field of veterinary medicine has only begun to emerge with the potential to revolutionise veterinary practise. Therefore, this paper reviews existing biotechnology applications in veterinary medicine for diagnosis and treatment in Africa, including: molecular gene cloning, development of vaccines

Mucosal Open Cavities: Organs Supported by Specific Microbiocenoses Increasing Human Resistance

New aspects of safety mechanisms for the human mucosal cavity are under consideration. It has been proposed that mucosal cavities act as mucosal organs on the basis of their own data. Progress in developing thoughts about the identification and binding of glycoconjugates by mucosal organs is reflected. New mucosal organ players were suggested and identified.

Molecular Diagnostic Techniques for the Characterisation of Escherichia coli

Escherichia coli isolated from Creek Road/Bonny Estuary using molecular techniques was described by this research. For the presence of E, one hundred and twenty (120) water samples were examined. Coli at Bonny Estuary/Creek Lane. For the isolation and detection of E, the Most Probable Number (MPN) process, the Eijkman test and molecular techniques were used.

Antifungal, Antiradical and Insecticidal Activities of Some Grass Species

Poaceae is one of the economically important families of plants and includes grass-designated monocotyledonous flowering plants. Grasses are useful as fruit, fodder, essential oil sources, building materials, and medicine. The antifungal, antiradical and insecticidal activity of grass extracts, namely Paspalum conjugatum P.J.Bergius, Oplismenus compositus (L.) P.Beauv., Capillipedium huegelii (Hack.)

Acinetobacter: An Antimicrobial Zugzwang?

As a new hospital pathogen with resistance to several groups of antibiotics, Acinetobacter baumannii has emerged. Despite its clinical importance, scientific evidence on the microbiological and pharmacological aspects of this organism has been minimal until recently. The availability of complete genome sequences, bacterial genome manipulation molecular tools, and animal infection models allowed the identification of

Secretion of α-L-rhamnosidases by Few Aspergillus Fungal Strains Using Solid State Fermentation and Their Application in Debittering of Orange Fruit Juice

Alpha-L-rhamnosidase development from Aspergillus ochraceous MTCC -1810, A. MTCC Wentii-1901, A. MTCC Sydowii- 635, A. Using readily available agro-industrial residues such as corn cob, rice bran, sugarcane bagasse, wheat bran and citrus peel as substrate, foetidus MTCC-508 under solid-state fermentation. Among these, the best substrate was found to be sugarcane bagasse in combination with naringin

Comparison of Widal Screening Test with Cultural Isolation Method for Diagnosis of Salmonella typhi/paratyphi Infections

The efficacy of Widal screening was tested in comparison with stool and blood cultures for the diagnosis of typhoid/paratyphoid fever in exposed subjects. A total of 1000 samples from 248 males and 252 females aged < 1 – 68 years (500 stools and 500 blood each) were examined. A broad screening test was performed on

Statistical Approaches for Optimization of Medium Components for Fungal Phytase

In order to increase the output of fungal enzymes, many techniques are used, including fermentation methods, medium optimization, strain improvements, etc. We define in this chapter an ideal situation based on a statistical approach to increase the output of phytase from heat stressed Rhizopus oryzae. The cost effective fermentation method is primarily based on medium
