IN-VITRO ANTI-BACTERIAL ACTIVITY OF MEDICINAL PLANTS AGAINST URINARY TRACT INFECTION (UTI) CAUSING BACTERIA ALONG WITH THEIR SYNERGISTIC EFFECTS WITH COMMERCIALLY AVAILABLE ANTIBIOTICS

Background: Plants contain a variety of bioactive compounds that provide them antimicrobial properties, which can be used to develop novel antibiotics.The current research evaluated the antibacterial activity of 6 medicinal plants Sphagneticola calendulacea (Chinese wedelia), Enydra fluctuans (Buffalo spinach), Chenopodium album (Goosefoot), Mentha

This protocol analyzes the direct interaction between two DNA-binding proteins by pull-down co-immunoprecipitation.One of the proteins is overexpressed in E.coli as HA-tagged recombinant protein and cell-free extracts are immunoprecipitated in HA-affinity resin.Cell extracts are treated with nuclease to degrade DNA and RNA, which rules out nucleic

Bicycles have been recognized for their advantages such as low environmental impact, health improvement, and maintenance of transportation function in times of disaster, and demand for bicycles is increasing as social Wooden Jigsaws Puzzle conditions change.The pedaling of a conventional bicycle nowadays turns a crank to rotate the front gear, whic

Plasmodium of Physarum polycephalum is a single huge (visible by naked eye) cell with a myriad of nuclei.The plasmodium is a promising substrate for non-classical, nature-inspired computing devices.It is capable of approximation of the shortest path in a maze, computation of planar proximity graphs and plane tessellations, primitive memory and deci
