Phytochemical profile and hepatoprotective potentiality of Phyllanthus genus: a review.

The Phyllanthus genus is very important plant traded as a raw herbal medicine in India. Commonly known as 'Bhumyamalaki' (Phyllanthus species) has been used for the prevention and treatment of jaundice. Phyllanthus is rich in diversity of bioactive compounds such as lignans, alkaloids, terpenoids, flavonoids, and tannins.

Genomic insights into virulence, antimicrobial resistance, and adaptation acumen of isolated from an urban environment.

Unlabelled: Populations of common commensal bacteria such as undergo genetic changes by the acquisition of certain virulence and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) encoding genetic elements leading to the emergence of pathogenic strains capable of surviving in the previously uninhabited or protected niches. These bacteria are also reported to be prevalent in the environment where they survive by adopting various recombination strategies to counter microflora of the soil and water, under constant selection pressure(s). In this study, we performed molecular characterization, phenotypic AMR analysis, and whole genome sequencing (WGS) of ( = 37) isolated from soil and surface water representing the urban and peri-urban areas.

Unraveling the evolutionary dynamics of toxin-antitoxin systems in diverse genetic lineages of including the high-risk clonal complexes.

Large-scale genomic studies of provide an invaluable opportunity to understand how genomic fine-tuning contributes to the transition of bacterial lifestyle from being commensals to mutualists or pathogens. Within this context, through machine learning-based studies, it appears that TA systems play an important role in the classification of high-risk clonal lineages and could be attributed to their epidemiological success. Due to these profound indications and assumptions, we attempted to provide unique insights into the ordered world of TA systems at the population level by investigating the diversity and evolutionary patterns of TA genes across 19 different STs of .

Comparative genome analysis of strains of porcine origin.

causes acute/chronic pasteurellosis in porcine, resulting in considerable economic losses globally. The draft genomes of two Indian strains NIVEDIPm17 (serogroup D) and NIVEDIPm36 (serogroup A) were sequenced. A total of 2182-2284 coding sequences (CDSs) were predicted along with 5-6 rRNA and 45-46 tRNA genes in the genomes.

Functional molecular characterization and the assessment of the transmission route of multidrug-resistant Helicobacter pullorum isolates from free-range and broiler chickens.

Background: Some of the life-threatening, food-borne, and zoonotic infections are transmitted through poultry birds. Inappropriate and irrational use of antimicrobials in the livestock industry has resulted in an increased incidence of multi-drug resistant bacteria of epidemic potentials.

Materials And Methods: The adhesion and invasion properties of 11 free-range and broiler chicken derived Helicobacterpullorum isolates were evaluated.

The third international hackathon for applying insights into large-scale genomic composition to use cases in a wide range of organisms.

In October 2021, 59 scientists from 14 countries and 13 U.S. states collaborated virtually in the Third Annual Baylor College of Medicine & DNANexus Structural Variation hackathon.

Genomic insights of beta-lactamase producing Klebsiella quasipneumoniae subsp. similipneumoniae belonging to sequence type 1699 from retail market fish, India.

Klebsiella quasipneumoniae is a recently described species and often misidentified as Klebsiella pneumoniae. Here, we report the genomic characterization of Klebsiella quasipneumoniae subsp. similipneumoniae (India238 strain) isolated from fish.

Whole-genome sequence analysis of Clostridium chauvoei isolated from clinical case of black quarter (BQ) from India.

Black quarter (BQ) is an infectious disease affecting cattle and small ruminants worldwide caused by Gram-positive anaerobic bacterium Clostridium chauvoei. In this study, a draft genome sequence of C. chauvoei NIVEDIBQ1 strain isolated from clinical case of black quarter was analyzed.

Comparative genome analysis of Pasteurella multocida serogroup B:2 strains causing haemorrhagic septicaemia (HS) in bovines.

Pasteurella multocida, a Gram-negative bacterium with ubiquitous nature, is known to affect wide range of host species worldwide with varied clinical manifestations including haemorrhagic septicaemia (HS) in bovines. Although, HS causing P. multocida strains were identified and characterized by conventional tools and PCR assays, diverse strains are indistinguishable by these tools in the face of disease outbreaks.

Whole-genome sequence analysis of Staphylococcus aureus from retail fish acknowledged the incidence of highly virulent ST672-MRSA-IVa/t1309, an emerging Indian clone, in Assam, India.

The epidemiology and toxigenicity of MRSA in the fishery environment are poorly understood. In this study, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) (n = 1) and methicillin-susceptible S. aureus (MSSA) (n = 2) from retail fish were subjected to comprehensive genome analysis.

Biofilm formation by clinically isolated Staphylococcus Aureus from India.

Introduction: Staphylococcal biofilms are prominent cause for acute and chronic infection both in hospital and community settings across the world. Current study explores biofilm formation by Staphylococcus aureus isolates from clinical samples by different methods.

Methodology: Standard techniques used for the characterization of S.

Antibiotic resistance patterns of Staphylococcus aureus: A multi center study from India.

Chemotherapy and emergence of drug resistance strains of Staphylococcus aureus is receiving serious threats, due to the origin and spread of hospital and community acquired MDR strains. The present study reports the prevalence of antibiotic resistance among Staphylococcus aureus isolated from clinical samples from different cities of India. Antibiotic sensitivity was performed by Kirby-Bauer disk diffusion method and minimum inhibitory concentrations were determined for vancomycin and methicillin according to CLSI (2014) guidelines.
