Evaluation of in-vitro inhibitory effect of honey on some microbial isolate

The aim of this study was to investigate the antimicrobial activity of honey sample from Basrah region against certain microbial isolate. Different concentrations (25.0, 50.0, 75.0 and 100.0%) of honey sample where checked for their antimicrobial activities, using some medically important micro-organisms includingEscherichia coli, Pseudomonas spp. and Staphylococcus aureus. The minimum inhibitory concentrations...

Structural organization of co-regulated genes in Escherichia coli

A promoter-protein fusion library was constructed and analyzed previously which covered about 8% promoter-proximal genes from Escherichia coli in respect to their reading frames, protein productivity as well as expressional regulations under normal and various environmental stress conditions (Talukder et al., 1994, Bioscience Biochemistry and Biotechnology, 58:117-120). In this study, we further analyzed 13...
