Screening and characterization of Chromobacterium piscinae AMA-5 for enhanced production of violacein and its ability of textile dyeing.

A violet pigment (violacein) bacterial isolate AMA-5 was isolated from soil samples collected from Achanakmar Biosphere Reserve, Mungeli district, Chhattisgarh, India. The yield of biocolor from this isolate was screened in minimal medium after 48 h of incubation at 37°C ± 2°C temperature. The violet pigment was extracted in ethanol.

Identification and Characterization of Non-protein Coding RNA Homologs in by Comparative Transcriptomics.

Unlabelled: The is a Gram-negative bacterium from the family. Recently, have evolved to become a versatile and opportunistic pathogen. Furthermore, this bacterium is also a multi-drug resistant pathogen exhibiting Extended-Spectrum Beta-Lactamases (ESBL) activity.

Electrophysiology and Magnetic Resonance Neurography Findings of Nontraumatic Ulnar Mononeuropathy From a Tertiary Care Center.

Background: Ulnar nerve is frequently involved in mononeuropathies of the upper limb. Ulnar neuropathies have been diagnosed conventionally using clinical and electrophysiological findings. Physicians opt for nerve imaging in patients with ambiguous electrophysiological tests to gain additional information, identify etiology and plan management.

In silico 'fishing' using known small regulatory RNA (sRNA) candidates as the decoy from Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhi and Salmonella typhimurium manifested 14 novel sRNA candidates in the orthologous region of Proteus mirabilis.

Proteus mirabilis, a gram-negative bacterium of the family Enterobacteriaceae, is a leading cause of urinary tract infection (UTI) with rapid development of multi-drug resistance. Identification of small regulatory RNAs (sRNAs), which belongs to a class of RNAs that do not translate into a protein, could permit the comprehension of the regulatory roles this molecules play in mediating pathogenesis and multi-drug resistance of the organism. In this study, comparative sRNA analysis across three different members of Enterobacteriaceae (Escherichia coli, Salmonella typhi and Salmonella typhimurium) was carried out to identify the sRNA homologs in P.

Comparison of Visual Prostate Symptom Score and International Prostate Symptom Score in the evaluation of men with benign prostatic hyperplasia: A prospective study from an Indian population.

Background: Lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTSs) due to benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) are common conditions in middle-age or older men. The International Prostate Symptom Score (IPSS) is a useful and validated questionnaire to evaluate LUTS secondary to BPH. Van der Walt et al have developed an alternative questionnaire named the Visual Prostate Symptom Score (VPSS) questionnaire.

Neuroleptic Malignant Syndrome with Minimal Dose of Amisulpride.

Amisulpride is an atypical antipsychotic drug, it helps in alleviation of symptoms of psychotic illnesses. Extrapyramidal features have been reported after taking amisulpride. Neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS) with amisulpride is rare, and have been reported earlier.

Seasonal differences and circadian variation in stroke occurrence and stroke subtypes.

Background: India is a subtropical country with clear seasonal variations in weather conditions. Seasonal and circadian variation in occurrence of subtypes of cerebrovascular disease has been of interest in several studies from different countries and climate zones, but discrepant results have made the conclusions unclear. The aim of the present study was to observe the seasonal and circadian variation in the occurrence of stroke and its subtypes among our population.
