Aetiology and pathogenesis of chronic diarrhoeal illness in adults (2007)

Azad, A.K., Islam, M., Islam, R., Salam, M.A., Hoque, S.S., Alam, A.N., ...

Objective: Study the aetiology of chronic diarrhoea and understand the underlying pathology leading to the disease. Methodology: Chronic diarrhoea was defined as duration of diarrhoeal illness for...

Effects of age, duration of illness and infecting species on the pathology of fatal childhood shigellosis (2007)

Azad, A.K., Islam, M., Islam, R., Salam, M.A., Alam, A.N., Butler, T.

Objective: Understand the pathogenesis of the complications and the pathophysiologic mechanisms involved in the persistence of the diarrhoeal illness, and determine the severity of colitis associated...

Assessing morphological and isozyme variation of jackfruit (Artocarpus heterophyllus Lam.) in Bangladesh (2007)

Azad, A. K., Jones, J. G., Haq, N.

A farmers' participatory survey was carried out in five different agroecosystems of Bangladesh to obtain information on the genetic diversity, consumers preferences for fruit quality and to assess...

Shoot Borer, Hypsipyla robusta Moore (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) Infestation on Chukrasia velutina Wight et Arn. in Hilly Areas of Bangladesh (2004)

M.M. Hossain, A.K. Azad, M.A. Islam

The nature and extent of damage of shoot borer, Hypsipyla robusta (Moore) Lepidoptera: Pyralidae was studied in 2-8 years old Chukrasia velutina Wight et Arn. plantations in hilly areas of...

Flourogenic Assays for Rapid Detection of Escherichia coli in Tap Water and Raw Milk Samples (2003)

A.K. Azad, Fauzia Hafiz

As rapid microbiological reports of foods and food related products for E. coli bacteria presence are of prime importance. Rapid assays for E.coli were developed by using the compound...

Effect of Plant Spacing and Sources of Nutrients on the Growth and Yield of Cabbage (2002)

M.Y. Sarker, A.K. Azad, M.K. Hasan, A. Nasreen, Q. Naher, M. A. Baset

The effect of plant spacing and different sources of nutrient was studied on the growth and yield of cabbage. The experiment was conducted with two plant spacings (60cm x 45 cm, 60cm x 60 cm) and...

Targeted replacement of the mycocerosic acid synthase gene in Mycobacterium bovis BCG produces a mutant that lacks mycosides.

Azad, A K, Sirakova, T D, Rogers, L M, Kolattukudy, P E

A single gene (mas) encodes the multifunctional enzyme that catalyzes the synthesis of very long chain multiple methyl branched fatty acids called mycocerosic acids that are present only in...

Isolation and molecular characterization of mRNA transport mutants in Schizosaccharomyces pombe.

Azad, A K, Tani, T, Shiki, N, Tsuneyoshi, S, Urushiyama, S, Ohshima, Y

Nucleocytoplasmic transport of mRNA is essential for eukaryotic gene expression. However, how mRNA is exported from the nucleus is mostly unknown. To elucidate the mechanisms of mRNA transport, we...

Characterization of the ptr6(+) gene in fission yeast: a possible involvement of a transcriptional coactivator TAF in nucleocytoplasmic transport of mRNA.

Shibuya, T, Tsuneyoshi, S, Azad, A K, Urushiyama, S, Ohshima, Y, Tani, T

Transport of mRNA from the nucleus to the cytoplasm is one of the important steps in gene expression in eukaryotic cells. To elucidate a mechanism of mRNA export, we identified a novel ptr [poly(A)+...

Intracellular energy depletion triggers programmed cell death during petal senescence in tulip

Azad, A. K., Ishikawa, Takayuki, Ishikawa, Takahiro, Sawa, Y., Shibata, H.

Programmed cell death (PCD) in petals provides a model system to study the molecular aspects of organ senescence. In this study, the very early triggering signal for PCD during the senescence process...
