Operational Taxonomic Units (OTUs) serve as fundamental units in the realm of numerical taxonomy, particularly in the study of microbial ecology. These units can represent various biological classifications, including individuals, species, genera, or even higher taxonomic levels. The term "operational taxonomic unit" was introduced to address the discrepancies between traditional taxonomic ...
This facilitates the study of differences in environmental microbial diversity and community composition. Technical Advantages High Throughput: Amplicon sequencing is well-suited for investigating specific genomic regions across a large number of samples, making it highly efficient for research purposes. ...
Unlike amplicon sequencing, metagenomics obtains and investigates genetic material directly from environmental samples, which has led to a new understanding of the diversity and function of the microbial world. Bioinformatics analysis is one of the most important procedures for this purpose. ...
The applications of metatranscriptomics · Human health Symbiotic bacteria (normal flora) play a key role in protecting us from pathogens, but under certain conditions they can overcome protective host responses and trigger pathological effects. Microbial population analysis can be used as an indicator of an individual's health status and as a ...
Through bioinformatics/statistical analysis, a large number of data are processed and analyzed to find the microbial community composition related to environmental factors (antibiotic use, bacterial inflammation, etc.) in the genital tract. ...
Unlike amplicon sequencing, metagenomics obtains and investigates genetic material directly from environmental samples, which has led to a new understanding of the diversity and function of the microbial world. Bioinformatics analysis is one of the most important procedures for this purpose. ...
The basic requirements of pharmaceutical preparations are safety, efficacy, and stability. Drug stability means that a drug product should maintain the same properties and characteristics as it was at the time of production and within the specified time frame. The stability of pharmaceutical preparations directly affects the effectiveness and safety of drugs. Therefore, it is of great ...
Introduction to Bioinformatics for Microbial Metagenomics In microbial ecology, metagenomic techniques are now widely utilized to research microbial communities in greater depth, including many strains that cannot be produced in the lab. Microbial bioinformatics may now be used to mine large metagenomic datasets for broad patterns that govern microbial communities. Typical metagenomic and ...
Sequencing technologies such as next-generation sequencing hold great potential for the field of eukaryotic microorganisms. Since their genome sizes are mostly small, high sequence coverage can be easily achieved and projects like genome sequencing are possible for small groups using moderate NGS which was initially used for large genomes. ...
The performance of a novel anaerobic membrane bioreactor (AnMBR) for treating antibiotic solvent wastewater was investigated in the start-up stage. The removal efficiencies of the four tested antibiotics were over 90%, mainly attributed to the biological process. Volatile fatty acid increased along with anaerobic sludge acclimation. pH (mean value 7.5) and a (mean value 0.12) remained stable. ...
The influence of consumption of salads on exposure to gastrointestinal diseases was assessed in urban environments in Kumasi, Ghana. Data was collected using a crosssectional survey involving 15 salad sellers and 213 consumers and microbiological laboratory analysis of 96 samples of readytoeat salad. Findings showed higher contamination in streetvended salads than those in cafeterias with ...
