AI Article Synopsis

  • - Two new bacterial strains, Y60-23 and HN-65, were discovered in marine sediments from China, showing 96.0% and 97.3% similarity to known strains based on genetic analysis.
  • - Both strains are rod-shaped, Gram-negative, aerobic, and non-motile, with unique fatty acid profiles and common respiratory quinone.
  • - The study proposes the classification of these strains as distinct new species based on phenotypic, chemotaxonomic, phylogenetic, and genomic characteristics.

Article Abstract

Two bacterial strains, Y60-23 and HN-65, were isolated from marine sediment samples collected from Xiaoshi Island, Weihai, and Dongzhai Harbour, Haikou, PR China, respectively. Based on the 16S rRNA gene sequences, strain Y60-23 exhibited 96.0% similarity to its most related type strain KCTC 52487, while strain HN-65 exhibited 97.3% similarity to its most related type strain 2ED5. The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity between the two strains was 95.8%. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strains Y60-23 and HN-65 belonged to the genus . Cells of strains Y60-23 and HN-65 were rod-shaped, Gram-stain-negative, aerobic, non-motile, prosthecate and multiplied by binary fission. The major cellular fatty acids (>10.0%) of strain Y60-23 were C 7 and C, while those of strain HN-65 were iso-C 9, iso-C and C 7. The major respiratory quinone in both strains was ubiquinone-10 (Q-10) and the major polar lipids were monoglycosyl diglyceride, sulfoquinovosyl diacylglycerol and glucuronopyranosyl diglyceride. The genomic DNA G+C contents of strains Y60-23 and HN-65 were 63.9 and 60.7 mol%, respectively. The average nucleotide identity value between the two strains was 72.1% and the DNA-DNA hybridization value was 18.4%, clearly distinguishing them from each other. According to the results of the phenotypic, chemotaxonomic, phylogenetic and genomic analyses, the two strains represented two novel species within the genus , for which the names sp. nov. and sp. nov. were proposed with the type strains Y60-23 (=MCCC 1H01433=KCTC 8172) and HN-65 (=MCCC 1H01434=KCTC 8169), respectively.

Crystal Violet (CV) is a vibrant and harmful dye known for its toxicity to aquatic life and potential carcinogenic effects on humans. This study explores the removal of CV through photocatalysis driven by visible light, as well as examining the antibacterial and antibiofilm characteristics of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) synthesized from the aerial roots of Ficus benghalensis. Various characterization techniques were employed to confirm the optical properties, crystal lattices, and morphology of ZnO NPs.

The bulk phase of transition metal nitrides (TMNs) has long been a subject of extensive investigation due to their utility as coating materials, electrocatalysts, and diffusion barriers, attributed to their high conductivity and refractory properties. Downscaling TMNs into two-dimensional (2D) forms would provide valuable members to the existing 2D materials repertoire, with potential enhancements across various applications. Moreover, calculations have anticipated the emergence of uncommon physical phenomena in TMNs at the 2D limit.

Background: Malaria is one of the leading causes of morbidity and/or mortality in tropical Africa. The spread and development of resistance to chemical antimalarial drugs and the relatively high cost of the latter are problems associated with malaria control and are reasons to promote the use of plants to meet healthcare needs to treat malaria. The aim of this study was to evaluate antiplasmodial activities of extracts of (Mah quat), which is traditionally used for the treatment of malaria in the western region of Cameroon.
