- Sero-prevalence study of Mycoplasmosis in selected layer flock in Dinajpur district of Bangladesh
Funded by: IRT, HSTU, Dinajpur-5200, Bangladesh
Position: Principal Investigator
Description: A serological investigation of Mycoplasma gallisepticum (MG) infection in layer chicken flock was conducted in Dinajpur district of Bangladesh. Experimental samples were collected and tested by serum plate agglutination (SPA) test using Mycoplasma gallisepticum antigen to determine specific antibodies in different flocks. It has been found that MG infection is still an important disease problem in chickens in Bangladesh.
- Surveillance of Neoplastic diseases in Commercial Layer Flock
Funded by: IRT, HSTU, Dinajpur-5200, Bangladesh
Position: Principal Investigator
Description: The economically important neoplastic diseases of poultry are Marek's disease, which is caused by a herpesvirus, and the Avian Leukosis, which are caused by retroviruses. In this study the aim is to determine the Effects of the neoplastic diseases on the production performance in commercial layer chicken which has a significant effect in context of Bangladesh. Marek’s disease spread horizontally but Avian Leukosis transmit both horizontally and vertically. These diseases cause economic loss due to increased mortality and depressed performance. The prevalence of neoplastic disease is 46.03 % and 47.25 % in the flocks. Reduction of production percentage upto 13 %. Birds which are suffering from neoplastic problems found to observe depression, reduction of feed and water intake and reduced body weight. After post-mortem enlargement of liver, spleen, kidneys and other visceral organs. Diffuse lymphomatous involvement of visceral organs such as the liver, spleen, ovary, kidney, heart and proventriculus. Marek's disease virus (MDV) and avian leukosis viruses (ALVs) are prevalent throughout the world, and new strains which arise in particular locations may spread across borders, thereby undermining national disease control measures. Marek's disease is controlled by vaccination, whilst avian leukosis is controlled by virus eradication programmes, mainly at the primary breeding level.
- Detection and characterization of enterovirulent Escherichia coli isolated from diarrheic cattle with their antibiogram profile
Funded by: IRT, HSTU, Dinajpur-5200, Bangladesh
Position: Principal Investigator
Description: The present study was conducted to isolate and characterize enterovirulent Escherichia coli (EEC) from apparently healthy and diarrheic calves. For this purpose, a total of 140 fecal samples were collected from calves of different dairy farms located in Dinajpur district of Bangladesh. Among these samples, 90 were collected from diarrheic calves of which 31 (34.00 %) were found positive for E. coli. A total of 50 samples were also collected from the apparently healthy calves of which 15 (30.00 %) were found to be positive for E. coli. Results of the current study indicated a higher prevalence of E. coli in diarrheic calves compared to that of the apparently healthy calves. The cultural characterization revealed greenish black colony with metallic sheen on Eosin methylene blue agar, bright pink color smooth transparent colony on MacConkey agar and slight pinkish smooth colony on Salmonella-Shigella agar. In case of biochemical characterization, all of the isolates showed fermentation of dextrose, sucrose and maltose with the production of acid and gas, negative result to Voges-Proskauer, positive result to Methyl red and Indole test also. The antibiotic sensitivity and resistance pattern of the isolated E. coli showed that the isolates were highly sensitive to ciprofloxacin and gentamicin while moderately sensitive to colistin, levofloxacin and azithromycin and less sensitive to ceftriaxone and tetracycline and resistant to amoxicillin, ampicillin, erythromycin, and neomycin.
- Identification of food borne bacteria from Ready-to-eat (RTE) foods sold in Dinajpur Sadar Upazila and determination of antimicrobial susceptibility patterns of the isolated bacteria
Funded by: IRT, HSTU, Dinajpur-5200, Bangladesh
Position: Principal Investigator
Description: The present study was hence undertaken to determine the microbiological quality and safety of a street vended RTE food product collected from several typical vendors located at different places of Dinajpur city and also from different adjacent areas of Hajee Mohammad Danesh Science and Technology University (HSTU), Dinajpur. It is obvious that few assessments of street foods such as Puchka, fried rice, chicken grill, and burger has yet performed in Bangladesh. Therefore, the main objectives of this research work were to isolate and identify foodborne bacteria from popular RTE foods such as Puchka, fried rice, chicken grill and burger, to determine bacterial load in RTE foods such as Puchka, Fried rice, chicken grill and burger, and to know the antibiogram of the isolated bacteria.
- Bacteriological quality of street vended foods collected from different locations at Dinajpur city of Bangladesh with determination of antimicrobial resistance patterns of the isolated organisms
Funded by: IRT, HSTU, Dinajpur-5200, Bangladesh
Position: Principal Investigator
Description: The objective of this proposed study is to assess the microbiological quality of street foods and determination of antimicrobial resistance status of bacterial isolates. Food contamination with antibiotic resistant bacteria can be a major threat to public health, since the antibiotic resistance determinants can be transferred to other pathogenic bacteria potentially comprising the treatment of severe bacterial infections. The traditional processing methods that are used in preparation, inappropriate holding temperature and poor personal hygiene of food handlers are some of the main causes of contamination of street-vended foods. To perform this study, eat street foods will be collected from various locations of Dinajpur City and tested for presence of contaminating bacteria with their antibiogram. Hopefully, this study might be able to demonstrate that street foods which are sold on the streets of study areas would be considerably contaminated. The foodborne bacteria and antibiotic resistance isolates would be possible to detect in this study and thereby, it would also be evident that street foods might pose a major problem for public health. Lack of training on the proper handling and processing of food, poor personal hygiene of venders and unhygienic surroundings could be possible factors for arising food borne disease problems.
