Lignin, a major constituent of plant call wall, is a phenolic heteropolymer.It plays a major role in the development of plants and their defense mechanism against pathogens. Therefore Lignin biosynthesis is one of the ...
Purification and characterization of beta-agarase from seaweed decomposing bacterium Microbulbifer sp Strain CMC-5

Jonnadula, R.; Ghadi, S.C. (Biotechnology and Bioprocess Engineering. 16(3); 2011; 513-519.)

Microbulbifer strain CMC-5 was isolated from decomposing seaweeds, and was found to degrade agar, alginate, carboxymethyl cellulose, carrageenan, xylan, and chitin. The extracellular agarase enzyme from strain CMC-5 was ...
Alkaline lipase activity from the marine protists, thraustochytrids

Kanchana, R.; Muraleedharan, U.D.; Raghukumar, S. (World Journal of Microbiology and Biotechnology. 27(9); 2011; 2125-2131.)

Two thraustochytrid protists of the genus Thraustochytrium isolated from coastal and mangrove habitats of Goa, India were studied for extracellular alkaline lipase production. Maximum lipase production was supported by a ...
Antimicrobial potential of Bacillus marismortal, a salt pan isolate of Cavellosim, Goa-India

Kamat, T.; ShashiKiran; Kerkar, S. (International Journal of Advanced Biotechnology and Research. 2; 2011; 321-328.)

A halotolerant, Gram positive, motile, rod was isolated from the salt pan sediments of Cavellosim, Salcette, Goa, India and screened for its antimicrobial potential. The strain showed an inhibitory effect specifically to ...
Marine algae hemagglutinins from the coast of Goa

SudhirKumar; Tiwary, M.; Barros, U. (Advances in Aquatic Ecology. Volume 5, Ed. By: V.B. Sakhare. Daya Publishing House. 2011; 185-189.)
Seasonal assessment of heavy metal pollution in tropical mangrove sediments

Attri, K.; Kerkar, S. (Journal of Ecobiotechnology. 3(8); 2011; 8-15.)

Mangrove swamps along the Mandovi estuary, Goa are exposed to an influx of metal effluents from the ferromanganese mining activities. The present study was carried out to assess the seasonal concentrations of metals in the ...
Bacteria from salt pans: A potential resource of antibacterial metabolites

Kamat, T.; Kerkar, S. (Recent Research in Science and Technology. 3; 2011; 46-52.)

Marine salt pans are important ecological niches which inhabit halobacteria. These bacteria tolerate and thrive in salt concentrations ranging from 0.5 to more than 5 M in which only very few other organisms are able to ...
Pharmaceutical potentials of bacteria from saltpans of Goa

Kamat, T.; Kerkar, S. (International Journal of Pharmaceutical Applications. 2; 2011; 150-154.)

Solar salt pans consist of a series of inter linked pans where gradients of salinity occur due to evaporation of seawater. Salinity in these ponds reaches as high as 400 psu during the peak salt-producing season and as low ...
Ambient iron concentration regulates the sulfate reducing activity in the mangrove swamps of Diwar, Goa, India

Attri, K.; Kerkar, S.; LokaBharathi, P.A. (Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science. 95(1); 2011; 156-164.)

In order to test the hypothesis that the ambient iron concentrations could regulate sulfate reducing activity (SRA) in mangrove areas, 10 cm cores were examined from test and reference sites. The test site at Diwar mangrove ...
G Model revisited: Seasonal changes in the kinetics of sulphate-reducing activity in the salterns of Ribandar, Goa, India

Kerkar, S.; LokaBharathi, P.A. (Geomicrobiology Journal. 28(3); 2011; 187-197.)

To evaluate the contribution of Sulfate-Reducing Bacteria (SRB) to the carbon flux from marine salterns, sulfate reducing activity (SRA) was measured for a year (Sep 2000-Aug 2001). This covered the pre-monsoon period ...
