The future in diagnostic tools for TB outbreaks: A review of the approaches with focus on LAMP and RPA diagnostics tests.

Tuberculosis (TB) is still the most frequent cause of morbidity and mortality in the world caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB). Due to slow diagnostic and treatment options, the disease is a major concern for public health and also increases the burden on the global economy. Rapid, sensitive, and cheaper TB diagnosis test is urgent to lower their rates by point of care testing (POCT).

Production of polyhydroxyalkanoates from renewable resources: a review on prospects, challenges and applications.

Bioplastics replace synthetic plastics of petrochemical origin, which contributes challenge to both polymer quality and economics. Novel polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA)-composite materials, with desirable product quality, could be developed, thus targeting the global plastics market, in the coming years. It is possible that PHA can be a greener substitute for their petroleum-based competitors since they are simply decomposed, which may lessen the pressure on municipal and industrial waste management systems.

Optimization of Growth Conditions to Produce Sustainable Polyhydroxyalkanoate Bioplastic by EO1.

Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are intracellularly synthesized by bacteria as carbonosomes that exhibit biodegradable thermoplastics and elastomeric properties. The use of cheaper edible oils as a source of carbon assists in the reduction of the production cost of such biopolyesters. In this work, different edible oils, such as groundnut oil (GNO), mustard oil, sesame oil, and soybean oil (SBO) were used to check their effect on PHA production from EO1 (MK049902).
