The nuclear-localized ethylene-insensitive3/ethylene-insensitive3-like (EIN3/EIL) proteins regulate the ethylene signaling pathway for growth and stress responses. This study presents a genome-wide analysis of nine Oryza sativa EIN3/EIL genes, exhibiting three clads in an ML phylogenetic tree. These are conserved both exon-intron organization motif architecture aligned with their clustering. harbor EIN3, EIN3 superfamily, RDV-p3 domains. OsEIN3/EIL expression profiling revealed consistently...
Potential links between irrigation water microbiological quality and fresh vegetables in subsistence farming Tono the Upper East Region of Ghana were investigated. Water samples from Nanglakinia dam six different types (collected Nanglakinia, Bonia, Korania), irrigated with this analysed for qualities. The study was carried out within a month. Bacillus cereus, Clostridium perfringes, Escherichia coli, Salmonella Shigella, Streptococcus spp, Staphylococcus spp Yeast sp. enumerated using plate...
Aim of the Study : This study was undertaken to assess bacteriological quality water from Tono and Vea dams. Design Water samples both irrigation dams in Upper East Region Ghana were collected analyzed their quality. A total 64 Place Duration: Navrongo Bolgatanga studied March April, 2011. Methodology: Multiple Tube Fermentation (MTF) technique used for determination coliform fecal coliform. Total heterotrophic bacteria counts Salmonella determined using standard plate count m ethods.
Fish begins to deteriorate as soon it is captured from water and requires proper post-handling preservation increase its shelf life retain quality. The most popular methods used preserve fish are freezing, canning, smoking, sun-drying, salting pickling. This study explored the preservative effect of garlic (Allium sativum) paste on fresh Nile tilapia, Oreochromis niloticus, a widely preferred food in Ghana. Whole samples obtained local market Navrongo were treated with stored under ambient...
The microbiological quality of machine sealed sachet water produced and sold in the Tamale Metropolis, Northern Region Ghana was investigated.Eighteen (18) different brands were collected for bacteriological analysis each sample represented by coded letters.A total 72 samples eighteen from producers sellers within Metropolis analyzed qualities.Total coliform bacteria counts, Faecal counts heterotrophic determined using Multiple Tube Fermentation technique Plate Counts methods.Based on WHO...
The effect of particulate materials on lactic fermentation cassava using both spontaneous and starter culture - Lactobacillus plantarum was investigated. mean value counts during fermentation, the total dissolved loads in all samples, reducing sugars microbial contents crude protein, fibre, ash contents, ether extract, phytic acid tannin were determined. All samples had an increase bacteria through out fermenting time 72 h than samples. Sample A highest but sample showed decrease their...
This research work was conducted to assess the potency of ethanolic and hot water extract Azadirachta indica Vernonia amygdalina against pathogenic Aspergillus niger (ATCC 16404). Potato Dextrose Agar medium under which antimicrobial sensitivity test carried out. Streptomycin solution also added selectively inhibit growth bacterial cell. The results showed that, higher concentration extracts two plants species were efficient in stifling A. niger. evident as inhibition zones increased with...
This research was undertaken to determine abattoir wastes effect on the stream quality along Kollaa in Sawaba area of Bolgatanga municipality. The study also determined microbiological and some physicochemical parameters that takes delivery untreated waste from extent pollution through discharge sites into water. Three water samples were collected (effluent point, upstream downstream) using sterile containers. Biological oxygen demand (BOD) by calculating difference initial final dissolved...
The effects of particulate materials and osmoregulatators on lactic fermentation cassava were determined total dissolved loads all the samples; reducing sugars samples, microbial in percentage crude protein contents, fibres, fat/ether, ash, phytic acid tannin. Sample A1 inoculated with varied concentrations had highest solid, sugar, bacteria counts than sample B1 with osmoregulator. There was corresponding increase A2 and A3 compared to B2 and B3. C which served as control lowest value at...
The potency of hot water, cool water and ethanoilc extracts bark leaves Psidium guajava, Vernonia amydalina, Carica papaya whole plant Phyllanthus niruri were assessed against isolates Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhi, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, Candida albicans obtained from the Mampong Research Institute Herbal medicine in Eastern region Ghana. Antibacterial tests carried out using agar wells diffusion method. susceptibility test results showed that P. are very...
Chewing of nuts Cola acuminata is a cultural practice in any African countries especially Ghana and Nigeria. The current study investigated antibacterial activity phytochemical composition methanol ethanol Soxhlet extracts raw, steamed roasted cola nut on Pseudomonas aeruginosa Staphylococcus aureus using the agar well diffusion method. Amoxillin distilled water were used as controls. ranges mean zones inhibition raw at 200mg/ml tested against 10.00±0.00 to 15.00±0.00 10.50±1.50 12.00±0.00...
