Quorum sensing (QS) plays a vital role in regulating the virulence factor of many food borne pathogens, which causes severe public health risk. Therefore, interrupting QS signaling pathway may be an attractive strategy to combat microbial infections. In current study inhibitory activity quercetin and its anti-biofilm property was assessed against food-borne pathogens using bio-sensor strain. addition in-silico techniques like molecular docking dynamics simulation studies were applied screen...
In this study, the synthesis and characterization of exopolysaccharide-stabilized sliver nanoparticles (AgNPs) was carried out for degradation industrial textile dyes. Characterization AgNPs done using surface plasmon spectra UV-Vis spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD) Raman spectroscopy. The morphological nature determined through transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning (SEM) atomic force (AFM), which indicated that were spherical in shape, with an average size 35 nm. thermal...
Background: Unseasonal rains beginning in 1995 damaged the maize and sorghum crops harvested a few villages of Deccan plateau India. Human consumption those grains resulted foodborne disease outbreak characterized by abdominal pain, borborygmi diarrhea. Methods: A rapid epidemiological survey was conducted affected detailed house to selected villages. Results: People 27 out 50 surveyed were seen only households subjects consuming rain moldy or maize. The self limiting. Diarrhea reproduced...
The study aimed to evaluate the γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) producing lactic bacterial strains of fermented food origin be used as potential psychobiotic. A total 268 isolates were screened for GABA production using pH indicator method. Five identified producers and shortlisted further confirmation by NMR HPLC analysis. One (G2), Weissella confusa showed highest (246.2 mg/L) while remaining produced only trace amounts. These five assessed safety probiotic properties. strain G2 exhibited most...
Abstract In the present study, galactan exopolysaccharide (EPS) from Weissella confusa KR780676 was evaluated for its potential to alleviate oxidative stress using in vitro assays and vivo studies Saccharomyces cerevisiae (wild type) antioxidant ( sod1∆, sod2∆, tsa1∆, cta2∆ ctt1∆ ), anti-apoptotic pep4∆ fis1∆ ) anti-aging sod2∆ , tsa1∆ )) isogenic gene deletion mutants. Galactan exhibited strong DPPH nitric oxide scavenging activity with an IC 50 value of 450 138 µg/mL respectively. yeast...
