Monitoring the presence and investigation of toxigenic fungi and mycotoxins in poultry feed and its products
(
Qatar University Press
, 2020 , Poster)
Contaminating poultry feed and their products with mycotoxins produced by fungi may cause many health effects on animals and human if they were at high concentrations. Therefore, it is imperative to regularly monitor the ...
Characterization of the Extracellular Polymeric Substances (EPS) of Virgibacillus strains capable of mediating the formation of high Mg-calcite and protodolomite
(
Qatar University Press
, 2020 , Poster)
The origin of dolomite -a common carbonate mineral- is the subject of an ongoing debate. It has been proposed that extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) excreted by microbes contain specific organic molecules that ...
Assessment of Anti-proliferative and Anti-bacterial Activity of a Desert Microalgal Strain Desmodesmus sp.
(
Qatar University Press
, 2020 , Poster)
Microalgae are believed to be a promising sources of different high value products (HVP). HVP are metabolites which are produced during the growth of microalgae and their production is triggered by the physiochemical growth ...
Biological Control of Mycotoxigenic Fungi and Ochratoxin A by The In-Vitro Application of a Qatari Burkholderia cepacia Strain (QBC03)
(
Qatar University Press
, 2020 , Poster)
Mycotoxins are secondary metabolites synthesized by mycotoxigenic fungi belonging mainly to three major fungal genera that are Aspergillus, Fusarium and Penicillium. The latter mycotoxigenic fungi contaminate plants and ...
Biocontrol Activities of Bacillus megaterium Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) Against Mycotoxigenic Aspergillus, Penicillium and Fusarium fungi
(
Qatar University Press
, 2020 , Poster)
Mycotoxins are secondary metabolites that are produced by toxigenic fungi once the temperature and humidity are appropriate. Mycotoxins are known to have adverse health effects. There are chemical, physical, thermal and ...
Influence of temperature, salinity and Mg:Ca ratio on microbially-mediated formation of Mg-rich carbonates by Virgibacillus strains isolated from a sabkha environment.
(
Nature Research
, 2019 , Article)
Studies have demonstrated that microbes facilitate the incorporation of Mg into carbonate minerals, leading to the formation of potential dolomite precursors. Most microbes that are capable of mediating Mg-rich carbonates ...
Isolation, screening and activity of hydrocarbon-degrading bacteria from harsh soils
(
Avestia Publishing
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
The study of microbial communities in relation to their ecology, interaction, and genetics must be covered in Qatar with special soil, weather and water. Microorganisms of an environment never having been exposed to such ...
Prevalence of Toxigenic Fungi and Mycotoxins in Arabic Coffee: Protective Effect of Traditional Coffee Roasting, Brewing and Microbial Volatiles
(
Qatar University Press
, 2021 , Poster)
Like other agricultural crops, fungal infection and synthesis of mycotoxins in coffee leads to significant economic losses. This study is aimed at investigating the prevalence of toxigenic fungi, their metabolites, and the ...
Detection of multimycotoxins in camel feed and milk samples and their comparison with the levels in cow milk
(
Wiley Open Access
, 2022 , Article)
Camel milk has been considered as an important source of nutrients and is commercialized in many countries of the world including the Middle East. This study aimed to investigate the presence of mycotoxins in camel feed ...
Efficacy of Lawsonia inermis leaves extract and its phenolic compounds against olive knot and crown gall diseases.
(
Elsevier
, 2013 , Article)
This study was undertaken to determine the antibacterial efficacy of the leaves extracts of Lawsonia inermis in vitro and in vivo, against the phytopathogenic bacteria Pseudomonas savastanoi pv savastanoi IVIA 1628 and ...
