Application of MALDI-TOF MS for identification of environmental bacteria: A review
( Academic Press , 2022 , Article)Bacteria play a variety of roles in the environment. They maintain the balance in the ecosystem and provide different ecosystem services such as in biogeochemical cycling of nutrients, biodegradation of toxic pollutants, ... -
Application of scanning electron microscopy and MALDI-TOF MS in the exploration of the parasporal insecticidal crystals of Bacillus thuringiensis strains isolated from Qatar soil
( Elsevier Ltd , 2022 , Article)Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) plays an important role in health and agriculture due to its insecticidal activities. In this study, six Bt strains isolated from Qatar soil were used to explore their crystals morphologies and ... -
Discrepancy in MALDI-TOF MS identification of uncommon Gram-negative bacteria from lower respiratory secretions in patients with cystic fibrosis
( Dovepress , 2015 , Article)Introduction: Early identification of microbial organisms from respiratory secretions of patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) is important to guide therapeutic decisions. The objective was to compare the accuracy of ... -
Evaluation by MALDI-TOF MS and PCA of the diversity of biosurfactants and their producing bacteria, as adaption to weathered oil components
( Elsevier B.V. , 2021 , Article)Indigenous Qatari bacterial strains were isolated from highly weathered oil-contaminated sites, identified, and differentiated based on their protein profiles using matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight ... -
The use of Principle Component Analysis and MALDI-TOF MS for the differentiation of mineral forming Virgibacillus and Bacillus species isolated from Sabkhas.
( Qatar University Press , 2020 , Poster)Occurrence of mineral forming and other bacteria in mats is well demonstrated. However, their high diversity shown by ribotyping was not explained, although could explain the diversity of formed minerals. Common biomarkers ... -
Valorization of palm tree (Phoenix dactylifera L.) leaves from harsh weather climate by silage using endogenous lactic acid bacteria, and application of MALDI-TOF MS for study of populations dynamics
( Elsevier , 2023 , Article)Preservation of green palm leaves by silage preserves them as green feed in addition to the added value of probiotics and prebiotics. In this work, the characterization of fresh palm tree leaves was performed. The isolation ...
