Peptidoglycan is the basic structural polymer of bacterial cell wall and maintains shape integrity single cells. Despite years research conducted on peptidoglycan’s chemical composition, microscopic elucidation its nanoscopic architecture still needs to be addressed more thoroughly advance knowledge physiology. Apart from model organism Escherichia coli, ultrastructural imaging data murein Gram-negative bacteria mostly missing today. This study therefore intended further our understanding...
Abstract Infections caused by Campylobacter spp. are a major cause of severe enteritis worldwide. Multifactorial prevention strategies necessary to reduce the prevalence . In particular, antiadhesive with specific inhibitors early host–pathogen interaction promising approaches bacterial load. An in vitro flow cytometric adhesion assay was established study influence carbohydrates on C jejuni Caco-2 cells. Chitosans high degree polymerization and low acetylation were identified as potent...
Differentiation between non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) and Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC) is crucial for case management with the appropriate antimycobacterials. This study was undertaken in three West Central African countries to understand NTM associated pulmonary sub-region.A collection of 503 isolates (158 from Cameroon, 202 Nigeria 143 Ghana) obtained solid liquid cultures were analysed. The tested drug susceptibility, MTBC confirmed using IS6110. All IS6110-negative...
Antibiotic resistance of pathogenic bacteria needs to be urgently addressed by the development new antibacterial entities. Although prokaryotic cell wall comprises a valuable target for this purpose, novel wall-active antibiotics is mostly missing today. This mainly caused hindrances in assessment isolated enzymes co-dependent murein synthesis machineries, e.g., elongasome and divisome. We therefore present imaging methodologies evaluate inhibitors bacterial high-resolution atomic force...
Tuberculosis (TB) and drug-resistant TB (DR-TB) continue to persist as a serious public health challenges in Ghana. Although several research has evaluated the drug resistance of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBc) strains across country, there is paucity data on its magnitude well various lineages circulating Eastern region Ghana.This study therefore distribution MTBc country associated resistance.One hundred forty-three (143) patients with pulmonary attending Regional Hospital,...
Murraya koenigii (Rutaceae) is a promising source of bioactive compounds since the leaves this plant has been traditionally used extensively in Indian Ayurvedic system medicine for treatment wide range diseases and disorders. Although pharmacological effect plant’s studied, however, study on using different extraction solvents to extract these componentsis scarce. The aim present was evaluate impact yields, phytochemical constituents antioxidants activity dehydrated Murrayakoenigi leaves....
Background: Phyllanthus fraternus is a tropical plant that has numerous pharmacological activities such as blennorrhagia, colic, diabetes, dysentery, fever, flu, tumours, jaundice, vaginitis, dyspepsia, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anticoagulant, anti-diabetic, antiviral and analgesic. The study evaluated in vivo anti-plasmodial activity of aqueous ethanol crude extracts using Plasmodium berghei infected Balb/c mice.
 Methodology: preparation the extract was done by boiling 195 g...
Perishable fresh vegetables that do not meet cosmetic standards and other crop waste rich resources are presently wasted. Mangifera indica leaves, Psidium guajava Petroselinum crispum leaves Daucus carota were selected as model to show they can be converted into a shelf-stable novel functional powdered product. A product from blend of these (FPPV) was formulated. To evaluate the shelf-life FPPV. The prepared in Food Science Nutrition laboratory, Sam Higginbottom University Agriculture...
ABSTRACT Background Most antimicrobial agents used today are isolated and extracted from microbial source. The emergence of resistance need for better, broad spectrum agent is always in high demand. In this study, a total 112 aquatic isolates 14 sample sites water bodies Ghana were screened by agar-well diffusion method the ability metabolites. Results Out these antibacterial activities, 10 inhibited growth at least one test microorganism with zones inhibitions ranged between 2.5±0.5 -...
Aims: This research aimed to evaluate the haematological parameters associated with malaria and its controls.
 Materials Methods: A convenient cross-sectional technique was used for study which sample size determined by using formula; n= Z² (P) (1-P) / (A) ². The profile performed Sysmex 2000i automated blood cell counter machine.
 Results Discussion: erythrocyte profiles (RBC, HB, HCT, RDW-SD RDW-CV) are highly affected malaria, whereas MCH, MCHC, MCV did not show significant...
