Microbial Cultures/ Gene Pool Deposition :

Professor B.A. Chopade has deposited and preserved a large number of microorganisms, isolated and characterized from India. They are deposited at the national and international culture repository. This has added to conservation of important gene pool of microorganisms for our country. The details are as following:

 

International Culture Deposits at MTCC:
 
Acinetobacter haemolyticus
Indole acetic acid (IAA), a plant growth hormone producing microorganism.
Acinetobacter spp.
Bioemulsifier producing Acinetobacter from healthy human skin
 
Microbial Culture Deposits at MTCC Chandigarh :
 

New TEM ß-lactamase (bla) gene encoded by 3kb plasmid pUPI191 from Acinetobacter haemolyticus TA34, isolated from tribal population of Satpuda ranges, India.Accession No. EF468463 (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov). This is very interesting finding. The sequence is unique and has been assigned TEM-162.
