  • Development of a bacterial consortium for coir retting 
    Ravindranath, A.D.; Bhosle, S. (Journal of Scientific and Industrial Research. 59(2); 2000; 140-143.)
    The development of a consortium comprising indigenous nora of the coconut husks is reported. This consortium which could be grown on husk leachates has been used as inoculum for the retting process under laboratory conditions. ...
  • Metal tolerance of Fusarium solani 
    Kowshik, M.; Nazareth, S.W. (Ecology, Environment and Conservation. 6(4); 2000; 391-395.)
    Fusarium solani can grow in the presence of a number of heavy metals and others like mercury, chromium, aluminium, copper, iron, nickel, lead, cobalt, arsenic, manganese, zinc, lithium. The growth of the culture in medium ...
  • Brain drain: Crocodile tears galore 
    Raghavan, T.M. (Current Science. 79(4); 2000; 396-397.)
  • Antimicrobial activity of pigment from Fusarium solani 
    Nazareth, S.W.; Koshy, B. (Ecology of Fungi, Ed. by: D.J. Bhat and S. Raghukumar. Goa University, Goa. 2000; 68-73.)
    Fusarium solani (Mart.) Sacc. produces a red diffusible quinone pigment. The pigment is shown to be anti-mycotic, effective in low concentrations, against human pathogenic fungi, namely Candida albicans and a Fusarium ...
  • Biosorption of metals by Fusarium solani 
    Kowshik, M.; Nazareth, S.W. (Asian Journal of Microbiology, Biotechnology and Environmental Sciences. 1(1and2); 2000; 57-61.)
    Micoroorganisms play an important role in biosorption of metals and in the abatement of metal pollution Sorption of metals by Fusarium solani is reported in this study. Metal biosorption by the culture is shown to occur ...
  • Exopolysaccharides of Pseudomonas mendocina P(2)d 
    Royan, S.; Parulekar, C.; Mavinkurve, S. (Letters in Applied Microbiology. 29(5); 1999; 342-346.)
    Pseudomonas mendocina P(2)d cells grown at room temperature in sodium benzoate as sole source of carbon, followed by storage on ice, form a viscous pellet on centrifugation. Such viscosity is not produced by cells grown ...
  • Studies on lead sorption by Fusarium solani 
    Fernandes, O.S.; Nazareth, S.W. (Pollution Research. 18(3); 1999; 211-216.)
    The biomass of Fusarium solani (Mart.) Sacc. can effectively sorb lead from a solution of lead nitrate maximally within 5 seconds. Alkali treatment of mycelial biomass shows only a marginal increase in metal binding capacity, ...
  • Release of periplasmic proteins from Sphingomonas paucimobilis strain S ATCC 43388 
    ShailajaRaj; Furtado, I.; Mavinkurve, S. (Indian Journal of Experimental Biology. 34; 1996; 86-88.)
    Alkaline phosphotase and oc-santonin binding proteins were released in the periplasmic shock fluid from S. paucimobilis strain S ATCC 43388, on treatment with freeze thaw (FTM), cold osmotic shocking (COSM) and chloroform ...
  • Electrophoretic karyotype of Fusarium solani (Mart.) 
    Nazareth, S.W.; Bruschi, C.V. (Microbiology. 140; 1994; 1373-1375.)
    The electrophoretic karyotype of Fusarium solani was determined by contourclamped homogeneous electric field (CHEF) gel electrophoresis. Thirteen chromosomal bands were obtained. The size of these bands, based on their ...
  • The Pseudomonas strain S (ATCC 43388) utilizing alpha-santonin is Sphingomonas paucimobilis 
    Furtado, I.; Sangodkar, U.M.X.; Mavinkurve, S. (Indian Journal of Microbiology. 34; 1994; 219-222.)
    The bacterial strain S (ATCC 43388) assimilating alpha-santonin, a sesquiterpene, as the sole source of carbon and energy is a gram negative rod, motile with single polar flagellum, oxidase positive, grows on the several ...
