Toxicity of Heavy Metals to Legumes and Bioremediation
This title discusses various effects of heavy metal exposure to legumes as well as the bioremediation potential of rhizosphere microbes. Availability of heavy metals, their uptake and the effects of metals on various signaling pathways within legumes are presented. Furthermore, the effects of heavy metals to nitrogen fixing microorganisms and how microsymbionts can overcome metal stress is presented in detail. The role of nitrogen fixers in decontamination of heavy metal toxicity, mycoremediation of metal contaminated soils, microbially mediated transformation of heavy metals and action of plant growth promoting rhizobacteria and nitrogen fixers together in detoxifying heavy metals are broadly explained. This volume is a useful tool for scientists, policy makers and progressive legume growers intending to develop safe and healthy legumes for future generations.
New edge of antibiotic development: antimicrobial peptides and corresponding resistance
Antimicrobial peptides, commonly isolated from several organisms, have been considered part of innate immune system and also as potential antimicrobial drugs. Besides its antimicrobial activity, some AMPs also have antifungal activity, inmmunomodulatory and antitumural activities. Lately not only nature has become a source of AMPs. Besides isolation of natural organisms, antimicrobial peptides might be improved or created using computational tools. This opens even more this so amazing field by creating infinite novel and remarkable possibilities. Overall the current issue highlights the relevance of such Research Topic with perspectives to develop entirely new molecules with vast application within health and agricultural field with higher affinity for its target with concomitant reduction of side effects.
Biotechnology Emerging Trends
During 21st century, interest in biotechnology increased quite significantly as a result it has been included in the syllabi of almost all universities at both UG & PG levels. The present proceeding Emerging Trends in Biotechnology – is an interdisciplinary approach and the outcome of exhaustive literature survey and experimental research of academicians and scientist of International caliber. The primary object of the authors is to present the subject matter with simplicity and clarity. It includes different sections like Agriculture, Medical-Pharmaceutical, Applied-Environmental Biotechnology, Industrial biotechnology, Stem Cell Biotechnology & Nanobiotechnology. It would be helpful for the readers of diverse disciplines including Biotechnology, Microbiology, Biochemistry, Botany, Zoology, Pharmacy, Medical field, Agriculture, Nanobiotechnology, Stem Cell Biology and commercial sector. Salient Features It is written in simple way with well illustrated diagrams, protocols and & recent data. The chapters on Stem Cell Biology, Nanotechnology, Bioplastic, Biocontrol are the main features of the book.
Antibiotic Alternatives and Combinational Therapies for Bacterial Infections
The thoughtless person playing with penicillin treatment is morally responsible for the death of the man who succumbs to infection with the penicillin-resistant organism.” As Alexander Fleming predicted already in 1945 bacteria have become resistant to antibiotics. From time to time we are bombarded with news of infections and deaths caused by antibiotic resistant and multiple drug resistant superbugs. This increase of resistance towards commonly used antibiotics due to decades of use, misuse and abuse of antibiotics, is today a global health concern. Research investments on development of new antimicrobials that can fight antimicrobial resistant microorganisms are scarce yet some new anti...
Surveying Antimicrobial Resistance: Approaches, Issues, and Challenges to Overcome
Why Antibiotic Resistance? The use of antibiotics in human and veterinary medicine may have consequences beyond their intended applications. The “One Health” concept recognizes that the health of humans is connected to the health of animals and the environment. Progress in molecular genetics is facilitating the rapid evaluation of the essentiality of these targets on a genomic scale. In 2015, a group of researchers established the International Conference on Antibiotic Resistance (IC2AR).The primary objective of this meeting is to bring together scientists involved in antibiotic resistance prevention and control. The IC2AR conducted its inaugural world congress in January 2015 at Caparic...
Alternative Therapeutic Approaches for Multidrug Resistant Clostridium difficile
Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) is among the leading causes of infectious diarrhea among patients in hospitals. Multidrug resistance in C. difficile continues to plague antimicrobial chemotherapy of CDI, posing a major cause of concerns within healthcare and hospital environments. Hence, there is an urgent need for alternative therapeutic approaches for multidrug resistant C. difficile.
