Antimicrobial Activity and Characteristics of Bacteriocin Producing Bacillus subtilis against Mastitis Pathogens
Maina, Juliana; Mathara, Julius Maina; Kikuvi, Gideon M; Wafula, Eliud (American Journal of Food Science and Technology, 2021)The use of drugs and antibiotics has increased the resistance of pathogenic bacteria in both animals and humans. This has been a significant problem and therefore triggers the investigation of novel antimicrobial ... -
Bacteriocins: Limiting Factors to Optimum Activity
Maina, Juliana Wanjiru; Mathara, Julius Maina; Kikuvi, Gideon M.; Ouma, Shellemiah Otieno (Science and Education Publishing, 2017)Bacteriocins are described as ribosomally synthesized antimicrobial peptides lethal to bacteria other than the producing strain. They are the most abundant of antimicrobial compounds produced by bacteria. These antimicrobial ... -
Isolation and Identification of Bacteriocin-Producing Bacillus spp from Rastrineobola argentea (Omena) with Activity against Bovine Mastitis Bacterial Pathogens
Maina, Juliana; Mathara, Julius Maina; Kikuvi, Gideon M; Wafula, Eliud (Journal of Food Security, 2021)Rampant use of antibiotics has increased resistance of pathogenic bacteria in both animals and humans. This has triggered the investigation of novel antimicrobial agents produced by a bacterial strain of low virulence with ...
