Psychological effects and associated factors among vaccinated and unvaccinated general population against COVID-19 infection in Bangladesh.

Background: The global effort to develop herd immunity in the general public against the COVID-19 pandemic is currently ongoing. However, to the best of our knowledge, there have been no studies on how the COVID-19 vaccine affects mental health in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic in Bangladesh. The present study investigated the psychological effects and associated factors among vaccinated and unvaccinated general populations against COVID-19 infection in Bangladesh.

Mental health outcomes and associated factors among vaccinated and unvaccinated teachers against COVID-19 infection in Bangladesh.

Background: Vaccination of teachers is recommended during the COVID-19 pandemic to reduce the risk of infection for themselves and their students, as well as to encourage their parents to get immunized. The present study investigated the mental health outcomes and associated factors among vaccinated and unvaccinated teachers against COVID-19 infection in Bangladesh.

Methods: A cross-sectional survey was conducted in Bangladesh from March 4 to September 9, 2021.

Organophosphorus pesticide tolerance of transgenic by bacterial B gene encode organophosphorus hydrolase.

Organophosphate hydrolase (OphB) gene from sp. was transferred into plants to observe the bioremediation ability and tolerance level of the transgenic plant to organophosphate pesticides contaminants. Gene transfer was observed by PCR of the transgenic plants' genomic DNA.

Factors influencing eating behavior and dietary intake among resident students in a public university in Bangladesh: A qualitative study.

Background: Over the past decades, Bangladesh has made substantial progress in improving higher education, and in part, this was achieved by promoting residence based higher education in public universities. University residency is considered a crucial period for students to develop healthy eating habits and adopt nutritious intake, which comprise a strong foundation for good health throughout life. Although, there is extensive literature on eating behaviors and dietary intake internationally, there appears to be relatively scarce research and analysis concerning Bangladesh.

Effect of plant age on endophytic bacterial diversity of balloon flower (Platycodon grandiflorum) root and their antimicrobial activities.

Balloon flower (Platycodon grandiflorum) is widely cultivated vegetable and used as a remedy for asthma in East Asia. Experiments were conducted to isolate endophytic bacteria from 1-, 3-, and 6-year-old balloon flower roots and to analyze the enzymatic, antifungal, and anti-human pathogenic activities of the potential endophytic biocontrol agents obtained. Total 120 bacterial colonies were isolated from the interior of all balloon flower roots samples.

Isolation of a novel gene encoding a 3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridinol degrading enzyme from a cow rumen metagenomic library.

3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridinol (TCP) is a major metabolite of the insecticide chlorpyrifos and is hazardous to human and animal health. A gene encoding a TCP degrading enzyme was cloned from a metagenomic library prepared from cow rumen. The gene (tcp3A) is 2.

Comparative analysis of the glg operons of Pectobacterium chrysanthemi PY35 and other prokaryotes.

A chromosomal region of Pectobacterium chrysanthemi PY35 that contains of genes for glycogen synthesis was isolated from a cosmid library. The operon consists of glycogen branching enzyme (glgB), glycogen debranching enzyme (glgX), ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase (glgC), glycogen synthase (glgA), and glycogen phosphorylase (glgP) genes. Gene organization is similar to that of Escherichia coli.

Changes in the activity of the multifunctional beta-glycosyl hydrolase (Cel44C-Man26A) from Paenibacillus polymyxa by removal of the C-terminal region to minimum size.

Paenibacillus polymyxa GS01 secretes Cel44C-Man26A as a multifunctional enzyme with cellulase, xylanase, lichenase, and mannanase activities. Cel44C-Man26A consists of 1,352 amino acids in which present a catalytic domain (CD) of the glycosyl hydrolase family 44 (GH44), fibronectin domain type 3 (Fn3), catalytic domain of glycosyl hydrolase family 26 (GH26), and a cellulose-binding module type 3 (CBM3). A truncated Cel44C-Man26A protein, consisting of 549 amino acid residues, reacted as a multifunctional mature enzyme despite the absence of the 10 amino acids containing GH44, Fn3, GH26, and CBM3.
