Journal ArticleDOI

Uranium (U)-tolerant bacterial diversity from U ore deposit of Domiasiat in North-East India and its prospective utilisation in bioremediation.

TL;DR: These natural isolates efficient in uranium binding and harbouring phosphatase enzyme and metal-transporting genes could possibly play a vital role in the bioremediation of metal-/radionuclide-contaminated environments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Isolation and analyses of uranium tolerant Serratia marcescens strains and their utilization for aerobic uranium U(VI) bioadsorption.

TL;DR: This is among the first studies to report uranium-tolerant aerobic chemoheterotrophs obtained from the pristine uranium ore-bearing site of Domiasiat.
Journal ArticleDOI

Variability in chemical composition and antimicrobial activity of Tagetes minuta L. essential oil collected from different locations of Himalaya

TL;DR: Chemical and antimicrobial activity profiles of T. minuta from Indian Himalayas may be regarded as potential antibacterial agents against S. aureus and selected EOs may have potential application as bactericidal agents.
Journal Article

Tungrymbai - A traditional fermented soybean food of the ethnic tribes of Meghalaya

TL;DR: The fermenting microbes were found to be associated with the equipments and materials used during the spontaneous fermentation of Tungrymbai, and lactic acid bacteria and yeasts could be isolated only from selective materials.
Journal ArticleDOI

Complete genome sequence of Pseudomonas frederiksbergensis ERDD5:01 revealed genetic bases for survivability at high altitude ecosystem and bioprospection potential.

TL;DR: The molecular cold adaptation analysis in comparison with the genome of 15 mesophilic Pseudomonas species revealed functional insight into the strategies of cold adaptation and the presence of industrially important enzymes.
