In India honey bees like Apis cerana and Apis mellifera are reared for commercial purpose. The other bees like rock bee (Apis dorsata), little bee (Apis florea) and dammer bee (Trigona sp) are not domesticated because of their ecophysiology. However, the kani tribes living in Karayar area of Kalakad-Mundanthurai Tiger Reserve area (KMTR) of Western...
Chlorpyrifos (CP) is one of organophosphorus (OP) compounds used as pesticides in the agriculture field in India. The persistence of CP causes environmental pollution and act as a nervous agent that affect human and animals health. Response surface methodology (RSM) was explored to optimize the biodegradation conditions of CP using Bacillus cereus...
Pesticides have played a significant role in food production, and in view of growing worldwide food
demand. This has resulted in serious concern about environmental contamination. Many remediation
technologies are used to remove the pesticides from the soil. The use of biosurfactant enhanced
bioremediation of pesticides. Biosurfactants are valuable...
The microbial diversity of cellulolytic actinomycetes was experimented in a waste landfill soil in Salem district, Tamilnadu, India. In this study, among 33 isolates, 11 Actinomycetes strains showed good Cellulase enzyme activity via plate-clearing assays. Quantification of cellulase enzyme activity in these 11 strains demonstrated ACT-1, ACT-2 and...
A total of thirty suspected broiler chicks were screened for coccidiosis, of them 25 chicks were found to be infected with coccidiosis viz. Eimeria tenella (15) Eimeria maxima (5) Eimeria necatrix (6) and Eimeria mitis (4). The anticoccidial efficacy of Azadirachta indica and Carica papaya with Salinomycin as a dietary feed supplement on the repres...
The present study is aimed to determine the phytochemical screening and anti-bacterial activity of the extracts (acetone, ethyl acetate and ethanol) of medicinal plant, Aerva lanata leaves against bacterial strains. Acetone, ethyl acetate and ethanol extracts of A. lanata leaves were prepared using Soxhlet apparatus. These extracts of A. lanata lea...
Plants have been a valuable source of natural products for maintaining human health. Plants are used in traditional medicinal systems have proved to be reliable sources of antimicrobial compounds. Medicinal plants have been considered interesting since they are frequently used in medicine as remedies for many infectious diseases. The plant Tephrosi...
In the present investigation the evaluation of antibacterial activity of Azadirachta indica has been evaluated against gram negative bacteria Salmonella typhi using disc diffusion method. Bioassays for antibacterial activity were carried out using leaves of Azadirachta indica plant. Crude Chloroform, Acetone, Petroleum ether, Iso proponal and Benze...
Trigona sp. SPKT1, SPKT2, and SPKT3 elongation factor 1 alpha gene, partial sequence
Medicinal plants are the wealthy source of antibacterial agents and curatives. Tecoma stans, Coleus forskohlii and Pogostemon patchouli are commonly practiced medicinal plants in the villages of Salem District, Tamilnadu (India). Plants grown in this region are not systematically tested for their biological activities in general and antimicrobial a...
Various plant fungus were isolated from Tecoma stans (L) Kunth Ex HBK in four distinct fungal medium enabling us to evaluate the diversity of pathogens in the valuable medicinal herb. Infected leaf scrapings cultured in different fungal media and Lacto phenol cotton blue staining influenced the study of pathogens under the microscope.
The antimicrobial potential of Catharanthus roseus hairy root has been studied using petroleum ether, chloroform, acetone, isopropanol and Benzene extract against Staphylococcus aureus by antibiotic sensitivity test vs standard antibiotic tetracycline. The zone of inhibition formed was proportional to the concentration of chloroform extract found t...
