Chitinases convert chitin into chitin oligomers and are also known antifungal agents. Chitin oligomers have numerous industrial applications. However, chitin's crystalline nature requires pretreatment before breakdown into oligomers.

- * Multi-locus sequencing typing revealed 39 sequence types, with ST2454 and ST2459 being the most common, while around 20.5% of isolates showed resistance to oxacillin, predominantly linked to the SCCmecIVb gene.
- * The study utilized various molecular techniques to analyze these isolates and found that significant genes related to pathogenicity were present, highlighting the international relevance of the identified clonal complexes (CC9 and CC97).
The present study attempts to identify potential targets of for novel inhibitors from therapeutic herb, mango ginger ( Roxb.). Crystal structure of all the selected drug targets obtained from Protein Data Bank (PDB) were subjected to molecular docking against a total of 130 compounds (found to have biological activity against ) were retrieved from public databases.

As compared to , much less is known about the molecular types or the spatiotemporal epidemiology of these NAS species. In the present study, randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) was employed to detect genetic polymorphisms, intraspecies diversity, and epidemiology of strains (n=37) isolated from bovine and bubaline mastitis cases in the state of Karnataka.

Mastitis is a major impediment for milk production, but not much information is available about bubaline mastitis, especially subclinical mastitis. The aim of this study was to (a) investigate the application of various tests for the diagnosis of bubaline subclinical mastitis, (b) identify the major bacteria associated with it, and (c) evaluate the antibiotic resistance pattern of the bacteria.
