Isolation and characterization of extracellular bioflocculants produced by bacteria isolated from Qatari ecosystems
( POLISH SOCIETY OF MICROBIOLOGISTS , 2008 , Article)Compared with conventional synthetic flocculants, bioflocculants has special advantages such as safety, strong effect, biodegradable and harmlessness to humans and the environment, so they may potentially be applied in ... -
Isolation and Identification of Organics-Degrading Bacteria From Gas-to-Liquid Process Water
( Frontiers Media S.A. , 2021 , Article)The gas-to-liquid (GTL) process generates considerable amounts of wastewater that are highly acidic and characterized by its high chemical oxygen demand (COD) content, due to the presence of several organic pollutants, ... -
Isolation and Physicochemical Characterization of Laccase from Ganoderma lucidum-CDBT1 Isolated from Its Native Habitat in Nepal
( Hindawi Limited , 2016 , Article)At present, few organisms are known to and capable of naturally producing laccases and white rot fungi are one such group. In the present study, three fungal species, namely, Ganoderma lucidum-CDBT1, Ganoderma japonicum, ... -
Isolation of a Novel Kluyveromyces marxianus Strain QKM-4 and Evidence of Its Volatilome Production and Binding Potentialities in the Biocontrol of Toxigenic Fungi and Their Mycotoxins
( American Chemical Society , 2020 , Article)To overcome the economic losses associated with fungi and their toxic metabolites, environmentally safe and efficient approaches are needed. To this end, biological control using yeasts and safe bacterial strains and their ... -
Isolation of entomopathogenic Bacillus from a biodynamic olive farm and their pathogenicity to lepidopteran and coleopteran insect pests
( Elsevier Ltd , 2012 , Article)The occurrence of Bacillus entomopathogenic bacteria on a Tunisian biodynamic farm was determined by examining 75 samples from olive tree (Olea europaea L.) habitats. A total of 40 Bacillus isolates were characterized ... -
Isolation of the Bacillus thuringiensis plasmid carrying Bacthuricin F4 coding genes and evidence of its conjugative transfer
( The Journal of Infection in Developing Countries , 2014 , Article)INTRODUCTION: Conjugation is an excellent natural mode of DNA transfer in vivo between bacteria, particularly when these conjugative elements carry technological traits such as bacteriocin encoding genes. In the present ... -
Isolation, differentiation and biodiversity of ureolytic bacteria of Qatari soil and their potential in microbially induced calcite precipitation (MICP) for soil stabilization
( Royal Society of Chemistry , 2018 , Article)Biomineralization plays a key role in modifying the geological properties of soil, thereby stabilizing it against wind erosion, especially in areas characterized by harsh weather and harsh soil (calcareous and arid); i.e. ... -
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 ... -
Isomorphic Hilbert spaces associated with different complex contours of the PT-symmetric (-x^4) theory
( World Scientific Publishing Co. , 2014 , Article)In this work, we stress the existence of isomorphisms which map complex contours from the upper half to contours in the lower half of the complex plane. The metric operator is found to depend on the chosen contour but the ... -
Isoperimetric properties of condenser capacity
( Elsevier , 2021 , Article)For compact subsets E of the unit disk D we study the capacity of the condenser (D,E) by means of set functionals defined in terms of hyperbolic geometry. In particular, we study experimentally the case of a hyperbolic ... -
