Wastewater Treatment Plants: Operations and Characteristics

A Mohamed Sikkander, Karthick Ramachandran
The life process of the aquatic creatures has been faced most critical issues due to the escalating rate of water pollution through water wastages pour out from the industrial areas. Overall under water ecosystem most negatively impacted through the throw out of industrial waste water within the water bodies all around the globe. The process of waste water treatment plants most significantly provides the assistance to separate harmful elements from the water and reduce the water pollution rate i...

Role of Plant Growth Promoters and Regulators on Rice and Maize

Bhargavi P
Abstract :- Role of plant growth regulators is one of the current scientific areas of research and it more or less depends on the area of implementation. Now in recent times, application of plant growth regulators or PGR is applying in the field for getting a high range of yield. This study discusses a wide range of plant growth regulators and their application in two major crop plants- Rice and maize. Result of various enzymatic activities and also influence of various other promoters has been ...

Application of Food-Grade Enzymes, Bacteriocins And Probiotics as Biological Food Preservatives

Monisha K
The demand of the consumers tends to be artificial additive-free, long foods of shelf-life, nutritious, ready-to-eat foods. The significance of the natural and food preservatives compounds is totally increased for the excessive use of the preservative compounds in the food rather than the synthetic compounds. The bacteriocins combine with the several modes of hurdle approach that can enhance the effects of the preservatives and reduce the resistance of the antimicrobial. The probiotic products e...

Adhesive Tape Microfluidics with an Autofocusing Module That Incorporates CRISPR Interference: Applications to Long-Term Bacterial Antibiotic Studies

Taejoon Kong, Nicholas Backes, Upender Kalwa, Christopher M. Legner, Gregory J. Phillips, and Santosh Pandey
The ability to study bacteria at the single cell level has advanced our insights into microbial physiology and genetics in ways not attainable by studying large populations using more traditional culturing methods. To improve methods to characterize bacteria at the cellular level, we developed a new microfluidic platform that enables cells to be exposed to metabolites in a gradient of concentrations. By designing low-cost, three-dimensional devices with adhesive tapes and tailoring them for bact...

Scan4CFU: Low-cost, open-source bacterial colony tracking over large areas and extended incubation times

Santosh Pandey, Yunsoo Park, Ankita Ankita, Gregory J. Phillips
A hallmark of bacterial populations cultured in vitro is their homogeneity of growth, where the majority of cells display identical growth rate, cell size and content. Recent insights, however, have revealed that even cells growing in exponential growth phase can be heterogeneous with respect to variables typically used to measure cell growth. Bacterial heterogeneity has important implications for how bacteria respond to environmental stresses, such as antibiotics. The phenomenon of antimicrobia...
