A robust approach to evaluate the bio-similarities between marketed probiotics still needs to be developed. Aim: We aimed to define an approach that uses time-tested methods to evaluate pro-biosimilarity between different marketed probiotics. Methods: A total of five different Bacillus clausii formulations were compared with the international reference standard Enterogermina. The spore quantity and microbial purity of the samples were estimated. The antibiotic resistance strains in oral suspension samples were isolated and subjected to molecular characterization by 16S rRNA sequencing. The antibiotic susceptibility test was performed using commercially available antibiotics. The pH and transmittance of the samples were measured. Results: Bifilac Clausi had the highest, while Entromax had the lowest density of quality spores. None of the products had contaminant pathogenic microorganisms. Based on 16S rRNA sequencing, four strains from Bifilac Clausi and Enterogermina and one strain from other samples were identified. The identity of the strains from Bifilac Clausi matched those of Enterogermina. Bifilac Clausi and Enterogermina were resistant to the ten antibiotics tested. Conclusions: Among the different Indian brands of Bacillus clausii, only Bifilac Clausi was found to be a pro- biosimilar to the international reference standard, Enterogermina.  ","PeriodicalId":13518,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Applied Microbiology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135739727","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Materials and Methods: Codon usage bias study has been carried using Emboss package and evolutionary study has been carried using pn/ps packages in python and R for statistical analysis. Results: The virus has overlapping genes exhibiting a high codon usage bias and optimization with human Lung housekeeping genes. Viral ORFs have near values of minimum folding energies and codon adaptation index with mRNAs of the human Lung housekeeping genes. Then too, viruses showed a greater expression capacity. Polymorphism is in the virus for ORF1ab, surface glycoprotein and nucleocapsid phosphoprotein ORFs. Non-synonymous mutations have shown non-polar substitutions. Out of the twelve mutations nine are for a higher t-RNA copy number. Synonymous mutation simulation mimicking evolution revealed fitter newer strains. Conclusion: Through this study we have explained the inherent codon adaptation of SARS-CoV-2 with human tRNA pool and how the virus shows polymorphism in-order to keep up with its infectious capacity. Hence, giving an insight into viral rapid adaptability.  ","PeriodicalId":13518,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Applied Microbiology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135739729","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Materials and Method: Optimization of media components for growth and biomass production of Halobacterium salinarum NRC-1, our organism of interest, was carried out using response surface methodology, a statistical approach to optimize and improve the performance of a process by analyzing the relationships between input variables and output responses. A linear model was estimated and media components were determined based on the linear regression equation generated by the model. The variables chosen were casein enzyme hydrolysate, yeast extract, arginine, and peptone. Results & Discussion: An optimum result for the four variables was predicted based on the experimental response, which is 7.5 g/L of casein enzyme hydrolysate and yeast extract each, and 5.0 g/L each of peptone and arginine. The optimized medium reduced the time required for the cell culture to attain stationary phase, and showed a significant increase in the amount of biomass obtained as compared with that in standard media.","PeriodicalId":13518,"journal":{"name":"Indian Journal of Applied Microbiology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135739721","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Aim: To evaluate the antimicrobial potency of Bioenzymes prepared using Emblica officinalis (Amla) fruit, Cucumis sativus (Cucumber) peel and Hibiscus Rosa-sinensis (Hibiscus) petal and a mixture of all three. Method: 4 Types of Bioenzymes were prepared, 3 of them prepared using Amla, Hibiscus, Cucumber individually while the fourth one having equal parts of all three plant parts. These 4 types of Bioenzymes were prepared in two sets namely Set I (fermented for 12 weeks) and Set II (fermented for 25 days). All of these eight test samples were subjected to antimicrobial susceptibility testing, using the Agar well diffusion method against 5 Bacterial strains. Result: It was observed that Bioenzymes from both these sets were capable of successfully producing large zone of inhibition. Bioenzymes from Set I were also analysed to determine their Minimum Inhibitory Concentration against S. aureus and it was observed that Amla Bioenzyme Set I and Mixture Bioenzyme Set I was found to be at 50% concentration.

The antifungal activity of isolates was examined by the perpendicular streak plate as well as the agar well diffusion method. Out of 14 isolates, only 4 isolates (28.5%) showed antifungal activity.
