It is an economically viable process particularly in the developing countries, including West Bengal, India. Keeping in view of the above viability, we have cultured three species of fishes Cyprinus carpio, Labeo rohita, and Cirrhinus mrigala in domestic sewage oxidation ponds designed as per National Environmental Engineering Research Institute, India. Biochemical parameters such as serum lactate and serum cholesterol have been investigated in the present study to determine the quality of fishes cultured in sewage oxidation ponds for human consumption. Among all experimental fishes, C. carpio exhibited higher serum lactate (360.40 μg/ml) as compared to L. rohita (301.43 μg/ml) and C. mrigala (286.73 μg/ml). Similarly, high serum cholesterol values were observed in C. carpio as compared to other two species in all the three seasons. During the monsoon season, maximum serum cholesterol were observed in sewage cultured C. carpio (430.45 mg/100 ml) and minimum (278.40 mg/ml) in summer season followed by L. rohita (248.25 and 198.21 mg/100 ml) and C. mrigala (278.40 and 238.37 mg/100 ml). The fishes cultured in fresh water control ponds showed comparatively low values of serum lactate and cholesterol than the experimental fishes. Our results support the concept that good survival and adjustment of the fishes to the pre-treated nutritive domestic sewage water leads to their significant growth with an increased biochemical profile especially with higher levels of cholesterol, which are season dependent.","PeriodicalId":15032,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Biology and Biotechnology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44839534","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}

Synthetic chemicals, fungicides, and bactericides are being used massively to control these pathogens in many countries. Although these pesticides are being able to control many pathogens, non-judicious applications may lead to many environmental and health concerns. Utilization of endophytic microorganisms may be an eco-friendly and sustainable approach in this direction. Endophytic microorganisms remain asymptomatically inside the plants in a symbiotic manner and impart resistance to plants from many biotic and abiotic stresses. Many endophytes have proved to have antagonistic effects toward many pathogens of plants. Some potential endophytes have consistently been isolated from rice and other plants which could control the growth of many rice pathogens. Considering the importance of rice and its many pathogen enemies, research on the use of endophytes to control these pathogens needs to be intensified to minimize crop loss and to meet future rice demands. The present review accentuated the potential of endophytic microorganisms to control some of the important rice pathogens which cause huge loss in many rice-growing areas of the world. This review may encourage researchers for intensified and integrative research in the mentioned area.","PeriodicalId":15032,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Biology and Biotechnology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45450101","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}

It is manifested by symptoms like fever, headache, rashes, muscle, and joint pains. In our country, Gujarat is one of the highest infected states by this disease due to mosquito bites. Blood samples from such cases were collected and assessed for blood counts, serum transaminases, and blood smears from only positive patients using standard protocols. Real-time PCR (RT-PCR) technique was also employed for virus detection. Of 1020 referral cases, from Ahmedabad, Vadodara, Jamnagar, and Anand districts, 184 cases were detected positive (18.03%) from October 2016 to December 2019 (39 months) being highest in 2019. Males had a high frequency (52%) of infection when compared to females (48%), affecting young age groups ranging from moderate to higher level. Furthermore, Ahmedabad district (57%) had a high percentage of infection, compared to others. Marked alterations were also observed with respect to serum glutamate-pyruvate transaminase and serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase, platelets, lymphocytes, and WBC counts in positive cases of 0–20, 21–40, and 40–50 year age groups. Reduced platelet clumping and severe thrombocytopenia (59%) in these cases are early diagnostic markers of dengue, supporting RT-PCR method. Thus from our study, we conclude that dengue infection is caused by various factors such as sex, climate, population, and environment. This outbreak is hence controlled by following health measures strictly, imposed by health departments in Gujarat, Western India.","PeriodicalId":15032,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Biology and Biotechnology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47780460","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}

It is an important cause of fever in India. The prevalence of malaria, typhoid, and their coinfection was studied at a tertiary care, rural-based teaching hospital. A total of 1,378 blood samples from febrile patients in whom initial diagnosis was of either malaria or typhoid fever were analyzed at the Department of Microbiology, SBKS Medical Institute and Research Centre, Pipalia, (District: Vadodara), India. The blood samples received from the outpatient department and also from the inpatient department of all age groups during January 2015–December 2019 were analyzed. The rapid diagnostic test and peripheral smear by Giemsa stain was carried out for diagnosis of malaria. Widal test was used for screening for typhoid which was further confirmed by blood culture and clinical diagnosis. Of the 1,378 febrile patients, 271 and 95 cases were diagnosed with typhoid fever and malaria, respectively. Coinfection was found in 18 (4.7%) cases. Of the total 1,378 febrile patients initially screened for both these conditions, males and females were 50.7% and 49.3%, respectively. Of the 95 patients of malaria, male preponderance was present (72.6% vs 27.4%), while typhoid had female dominance (male: 45.4%; female: 54.6%). The prevalence of malaria, typhoid, and coinfection was highest in the age group of 16–30 years, which was around 43%–45%. The study revealed that the typhoid prevalence rate was higher than malaria in patients in whom initial diagnosis was made of either malaria or typhoid.

The production of biofuels, including bioethanol, biohydrogen, biodiesel, etc., from crop plants again leads to food insecurity. Hence, the usage of algae, particularly green algae, is the best alternatives to generate biofuels. In the present study, the effects of various factors involved in algal growth in turn bioethanol and biohydrogen production levels were established by choosing green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. Specifically, we crosschecked the effect of heavy metal Cobalt (Co), sodium bicarbonate, and Tris-acetate-phosphate (TAP) medium without Tris base on growth and biofuel production from C. reinhardtii under in vitro conditions. In the current work, 0.2 mg/l Co in TAP medium enhanced the growth and biomass in C. reinhardtii cultures. Furthermore, ethanol production levels were improved in feedstocks grown in TAP medium with 2.0 mg/l sodium bicarbonate. In another experiment, hydrogen production was high in full TAP medium with Tris (trisaminomethane) base when compared to TAP without Tris base. In conclusion, this work may be useful to improve the biomass and biofuel production in green algae.","PeriodicalId":15032,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Biology and Biotechnology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43187218","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}

Sperm dysfunction, a root cause of male infertility, is a commonly allied complication of diabetes mellitus. Our previous studies cogitate that cold stress (15°C) exacerbates the complications and the resultant oxidative stress plays a major role in testicular and epididymis dysfunction in diabetic rats. Despite the strong biologic prospect for this postulation, establishing a direct link between free radicals and specific disease is an in-dire need, and in this context, this study focuses on investigating the sperm quality parameters and their relationship to testicular oxidative stress indices of cold stress diabetes in Wistar rats. The results indicate a cumulative impact by diminishing sperm parameters, viz. sperm density, viability, motility, mortality, and acrosome intactness in cold-stressed diabetic rats. The findings also reveal a strong positive Pearson’s correlation between the sperm quality parameters and testicular lipid peroxidation, which reflects the influence of oxidative stress on sperm dysfunction. Together with duel stressor effects, the efficacy of Moringa oleifera leaf ethanolic (MOLE) extract is appended to assess its therapeutic role. The apparent effectiveness of MOLE therapy at 250 and 500 mg/kg bw for 60 days aided in suppressing oxidative stress and improved semen quality demonstrating the causative nature of these associations; hence, Moringa usage is recommended as a therapeutic agent for male reproductive dysfunctions in population residing in colder climates.","PeriodicalId":15032,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Applied Biology and Biotechnology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46825400","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}

Samples were collected from ooze leaking off from stem, vascular component of wilted tomato plants, and inflamed potato tuber and isolated on triphenyl tetrazolium chloride medium. 22 out of initial 57 isolates were identified as R. solanacearum by morphological, physiological, biochemical, and serological tests. All isolates showed pathogenicity in tomato seedlings and potato tuber inoculation. The characterization of pathogenic traits such as biofilm formation, antibiotic resistance, siderophore and hydrogen cyanide production, potassium solubilization and hydrolytic enzymes, such as cellulase, amylase, gelatinase, and pectinase has been reported. 16S ribosomal ribonucleic acid sequencing showed sequence similarity in NCBI BLAST analysis to members of Enterobacter cloaceae, Serratia marcescens, and Providencia vermicola.
