Recently, the formation of dental plaque has been associated with the occurrence of various other systemic diseases, Alzheimer's disease, Cardiovascular diseases, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Respiratory diseases, Bacteremia and Cancer. Despite the fact that both Streptococcus mutans and Streptococcus sobrinus are the major etiologic agents of dental caries, S. mutans is more prevalent than S. sobrinus in dental plaque. Early detection of S. mutans and S. sobrinus was carried out from five caries affected dental plaque samples collected from Sri Ramakrishna Dental College and Hospital, Coimbatore, by using semi-quantitative real-time PCR. Specific primers for gtfB and gtfI genes of S. mutans and S. sobrinus respectively were used for the quantification of cariogenic bacteria in the given dental plaque samples. The Biopro Oral Microbiome transport media was prepared to carry dental plaque samples from the hospital to the laboratory. Genomic DNA extraction was done by employing magnetic beads and spin columns provided in the Biopro DNA isolation kit. Various biochemical tests were performed on the bacterial cultures isolated from dental plaque.","PeriodicalId":9032,"journal":{"name":"Biosciences, Biotechnology Research Asia","volume":"302 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135546847","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}

The large-scale usage of petroleum products releases different types of hazardous gasses, sulfur dioxide being one of them. The oxidation of organosulfur compounds in fuels release sulfur dioxide which is deleterious to humans and one of the causative factors for acid rains. The hydrodesulfurization, a conventional process is practiced for the elimination of sulfur from petroleum products during refining is not up to the mark for the total removal of sulfur content. Especially, highly recalcitrant organosulfur compounds like dibenzothiophene and its derivatives are more resistant to hydrodesulfurization. The biodesulfurization process which involves microorganisms for the removal of sulfur from petroleum products was suggested to be as the better alternative approach to hydrodesulfurization. It has been considered that dibenzothiophene as a reference model recalcitrant compound for biodesulfurization experiments and the microorganisms that exhibit 4S metabolic pathway for the elimination ofsulfur atom from dibenzothiophene as the potent desulfurizing strains. The 4S pathway is under the regulation of three genes (dszA, B and C) of dsz operon and they express the enzymatic proteins DszA(dibenzothiophene sulfone monooxygenase), DszB (hydroxyphenylbenzene sulfinate desulfinase) and DszC (dibenzothiophene monooxygenase), respectively. In the present study, the dszC gene pertaining to Streptomyces sp. VUR PPR 102 was made to produce corresponding sequence of DszC enzyme in National Centre for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) open reading frame finder. The amino acid sequence of DszC enzymatic protein was used in SWISS MODEL server and the three-dimensional model of DszC enzymatic protein was developed.

Sperm abnormalities which include (Oligozoospermia), (teratozoospermia) or abnormalities related to sperm motility are essential factors in male infertility. Anti-sperm antibodies (ASA) are the leading cause of immune infertility in men (autoimmune disease). Intra-cytoplasmic Sperm Injection (ICSI) is specially designed to manage severe cases of male-factor infertility. this study aimed to determine the effect of ASA on ICSI outcomes among Normospermia and (Oligozoospermia, Asthenozoospermia and Teratozoospermia). Material and methods: This is a cross-sectional study performed at Fertility Center, Najaf-Iraq between Jan to June 2023, it included 50 couples who suffered from a minimum of 12 months of primary fertility who had attended the Fertility Center. They were divided into four groups (Normospermia, Oligospermia, Teratozoospermia, and Asthenospermia) according to their seminal fluid analysis (SFA). Sperms were collected by ICSA, immobilized, and processed. The oocytes were collected, injected, and prepared for fertilization , after that fertilization took place. Finally, pregnancy was examined in each female partner. Results: there was no significant difference in the age of the four groups, there was no relationship between ASA and Sperm concentration, and there was no relationship between ASA and Normal Sperm Morphology, fertilization , & pregnancy rates, in addition to other ICSI outcomes, were similar among the four groups.in conclusion, pregnancy rates were higher in the normospermia group than the other three groups and ICSI overcomed the presence of ASA in the semen plasma.","PeriodicalId":9032,"journal":{"name":"Biosciences, Biotechnology Research Asia","volume":"100 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135547002","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}

This article aimed to investigate the impact of food borne diseases on food quality along with the public health concerns related to contaminated foods. This study was conducted through secondary data extracted from the literature on an emerging and concerning topic, which revealed that the emergence of antibiotic resistance in foodborne bacteria has a significant impact on public health. Resistant bacterial infections pose considerable costs to society and threats to food safety and the health of the population as a whole. Multidrug-resistant microorganisms causing illnesses possess several biological mechanisms to counteract the drugs’ effectiveness and avoid being killed by them. It has been extracted that foodborne illnesses are caused by bacterial infections from various pathogens, including Clostridium perfringens, Clostridium botulinum, Listeria monocytogenes, Vibrio spp., Shigella spp., Escherichia coli, Campylobacter spp., and Salmonella spp. Foodborne illness epidemiological surveillance methods are powerful tools for monitoring the phenomenon that occurs in populations.
