  • Antimicrobial activity of extract of Murraya koenigii(kadhi patta) on clinical bacterial species
  • Antimicrobial and antioxidant activity ofCapparis zeylanica Linn
  • Amyloglucosidase derived fromRhizopus niveus for use in degrading gelatinized starch into constituent sugars
  • Media optimization for Cephalosporin production
  • Comparative study for PHB production from waste (comparison with Alcaligenes)
  • Micropropagation of Casia Fistula and to check its antimicrobial activity from its extract
  • In vitro propagation and antimicrobial activity of crude extract of Indian spices (ginger, garlic, onion,) on clinical bacterial species
  • Comparative study for nitrogen biofertilizers produced using different substrates
  • Comparative study for use of different carrier materials for biofertilizer preparation
  • Micro propagation of Coleus forskohii- karpur vani and its antimicrobial activity
  • Micro propagation of Endangered Tree Oroxylum indicum (Linn.) (bhut-vriksha) Vent.
  • Molecular docking consists of predicting how two molecules will interact. This can either be two proteins or one protein and a small compound, such as a new drug. The two main factors that are taken into account are the shape and electrostatics of the two molecules
  • Constructing phylogenetic trees. Read an overview of the construction of phylogenetic trees using a neighbour-joining approach. For this project, you will produce a prototype implementation, in Java, of a modern method such as: quartet method, maximum likelihood or maximum parsimony.
  • Predicting Cellular Localization. Eukaryotic cells contain several sub-compartments, the Cellular Localization problem consists of predicting which compartment a protein is most likely to be found, on the basis of sequence information alone. The project may consist of a review of the literature and/or a novel analysis (I have access to a data-set that has never been used in a predictive context).
  • Isolation, biochemical characterization and preparation of biofertilizer using Rhizobium strains for commercial use
  • Mass production of phosphate solublizing biofertilizer from agro-waste
  • Media optimization for biofertilizer preparation
  • Use of kitchen waste for production of potassium solublizing biofertilizer
  • Biodegradation of S-Triazine herbicides by soil microbioganism
  • Isolation and characterization of S-triazine herbicides herbicide degrading microbes
  • Isolation and characterization of microbes for removal of toxic phenols from industrial effluents
  • Isolation and characterization of thermophilic actinomycetes for anti-fungal activity
  • Fumaric acid production from waste
  • Gluconic acid production by niger
  • Invertase from edible baker’s yeast or brewer’s yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae)
  • Lactase enzyme preparation fromCandida pseudotropicalis for use in hydrolyzing lactose to glucose and galactose
  • Expression data + motif discovery. DNA–arrays allows to find genes that are simultaneously expressed. Those genes are most likely co-regulated, i.e. they share a common sequence signal in their promoter region. Daniela Cerna implemented a suffix tree library in Java, in the context of her honours project. Here, we would be re-using the library to help finding conserved motifs.
  • Simultaneous alignment and structure prediction for two RNA sequences. Implement a simplified version of dynalign, where the secondary structure prediction is calculated using the Nissinov algorithm; i.e. finds the maximum number of base pairs.

  • Media Optimization for curdlan production
  • Media optimization for thermostable PHB production
