3^rd World Congress and Expo on Applied Microbiology Nov 7-9, 2016 Dubai, UAE

A biofilm is any group of microorganisms in which cells stick to each other on a surface. These adherent cells are frequently embedded within a self-produced matrix of extracellular polymeric substance (EPS). Biofilms form when bacteria adhere to surfaces in some form of watery environment and begin to excrete a slimy, gluelike substance that can stick to all kinds of materials–metals, plastics, soil particles, medical implant materials, biological tissues. Biofilms can be formed by a single bacterial species, but biofilms more often consist of many species of bacteria, as well as fungi, algae, protozoa, debris, and corrosion products. Essentially, a biofilm may form on any surface exposed to bacteria and some amount of water.

Quorum sensing is a system of stimulae and response correlated to population density. Many species of bacteria use quorum sensing to coordinate gene expression according to the density of their local population.

Microbial physiology: The study of how the microbial cell functions biochemically. Includes the study of microbial growth, microbial metabolism and microbial cell structure. Microbial ecology: The relationship between microorganisms and their environment.

Environmental microbiology is the study of the composition and physiology of microbial communities in the environment. The environment in this case denotes the soil, dihydrogen monoxide, air and sediments covering the planet and can withal include the animals and plants that inhabit these areas. Environmental microbiology withal includes the study of microorganisms that subsist in artificial environments such as bioreactors. Molecular biology has revolutionized the study of microorganisms in the environment and amended our construal of the composition, phylogeny, and physiology of microbial communities. The current molecular toolbox encompasses a range of DNA-predicated technologies and incipient methods for the study of RNA and proteins extracted from environmental samples. Microbial life is astonishingly diverse and microorganisms literally cover the planet. It is estimated that we ken fewer than 1% of the microbial species on Earth. Microorganisms can survive in some of the most extreme environments on the planet and some can survive high temperatures, often above 100°C, as found in geysers, ebony smokers, and oil wells. Some are found in very arctic habitats and others in highly salt saline, acidic, or alkaline dihydrogen monoxide. An average gram of soil contains approximately one billion (1,000,000,000) microbes representing probably several thousand species. Microorganisms have special impact on the whole biosphere. They are the backbone of ecosystems of the zones where light cannot approach. In such zones, chemosynthetic bacteria are present which provide energy and carbon to the other organisms there. Some microbes are decomposers which have ability to recycle the nutrients. So, microbes have a special role in biogeochemical cycles. Microbes, especially bacteria, are of great importance in the sense that their symbiotic relationship (either positive or negative) has special effects on the ecosystem. 

Cellular microbiology is a discipline that bridges microbiology and cell biology. The term "cellular microbiology" was coined in 1996 in a Science article. Cellular microbiology is revealing how pathogenic bacteria interact with host cells in what is turning out to be a complex evolutionary battle of competing gene products. Molecular and cellular biology are no longer discrete subject areas but vital tools and an integrated part of current microbiological research.

Protein Engineering is the process of developing useful or valuable proteins and it research takes place into the understanding of folding and recognition for protein design principles.  Researchers will have more detailed knowledge on In vitro evolution of proteins, Aspects of Biocatalysis, Advances in engineering proteins for biocatalysis, Protein Engineered Biomaterials and many topics. Computational Protein Engineering, Constructing functional biocatalysts and Growth of synthetic biology are also commonly used topics in protein engineering. Protein Engineering market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 15.7% to reach $1,463.0 million by 2020. There are almost 3000 people from 60-65 universities in USA working for Protein Engineering and there are several conferences and workshops like biomolecular engineering conferences, molecular cell biology workshops, protein engineering conferences, antibody engineering 2015 are conducting throughout the year globally.

Industrial microbiology is primarily associated with the commercial exploitation of microorganisms, and involves processes and products that are of major economic, environmental and gregarious consequentiality throughout the world. There are two key aspects of industrial microbiology, the first relating to engenderment of valuable microbial products via fermentation processes. These include traditional fermented foods and beverages, such as bread, potation, cheese and wine, which have been engendered for thousands of years. In additament, over the last hundred years or so, microorganisms have been further employed in the engenderment of numerous chemical feedstock, energy sources, enzymes, aliment ingredients and pharmaceuticals. The second aspect is the role of microorganisms in providing accommodations, particularly for waste treatment and pollution control, which utilizes their abilities to degrade virtually all natural and man-made products. However, such activities must be controlled while these materials are in utilization, otherwise consequent bio deterioration leads to major economic loses, and Industrial microorganisms are mundanely cultivated under rigorously controlled conditions developed to optimize the magnification of the organism or engenderment of a target microbial product. The synthesis of microbial metabolites is conventionally tightly regulated by the microbial cell. Consequently, in order to obtain high yields, the environmental conditions that trigger regulatory mechanisms, particularly repression and feedback inhibition, must be evaded. Fermentations are performed in astronomically immense fermenters often with capacities of several thousand litres. These range from simple tanks, which may be stirred or unstirred, to intricate integrated systems involving varying levels of computer control. The fermenter and associated pipework, etc., must be constructed of materials, conventionally stainless steel, that can be perpetually sterilized and that will not react adversely with the microorganisms or with the target products. The mode of fermenter operation (batch, victualed-batch or perpetual systems), the method of its aeration and agitation, where indispensable, and the approach taken to process scale-up have major influences on fermentation performance.

The field of modern aliment microbiology, includes recent developments in the procedures used to assay and control microbiological quality in food. It covers the three main themes of the interaction of micro-organisms with victuals-spoilage, foodborne illness and victuals fermentation and gives balanced attention to both the positive and negative aspects which result. It additionally discusses the factors affecting the presence of micro-organisms in foods, as well as their capacity to survive and grow. Microbes accommodate many utilizable purposes to humans. We utilize them inside our bodies with natural digestion processes. We additionally utilize them in industry and pabulum engenderment, like dairy products. Aliment like cheese, pickles, chocolate, bread, wine, potation and soy sauce are all made with the avail of variants of bacteria and yeast. In most of these pabulum products, bacteria play a major role because they engender lactic acid. Fermentation of pabulum is commonly used to process pabulum for making potations, leavening of bread and preserving foods. We have 100 trillion microbes in our gut—more bacteria than cells in the body. They avail in digestion and detoxification, avail support our immune system, and manufacture key vitamins, among other functions. We incline to cerebrate of microbes as lamentable pathogens that need to be killed but incipient research suggests that storing scores of them is paramount to our health and metabolism. One of the most paramount things microbes do for us is to avail with digestion. The commix of microbes in your gut can affect how well you utilize and store energy from victuals. Food safety is a public health priority; millions of people fall ill every year and many die as a result of victualing unsafe pabulum. Solemn outbreaks of foodborne disease have been documented on every continent in the past decade, and in many countries rates of illnesses are incrementing significantly. 

Systems biology is the computational and mathematical modelling of complex biological systems. Systems biology has been responsible for some of the most important developments in the science of human health and environmental sustainability. It is a holistic approach to deciphering the complexity of biological systems that starts from the understanding that the networks that form the whole of living organisms are more than the sum of their parts. It is collaborative, integrating many scientific disciplines – biology, computer science, engineering, bioinformatics, physics and others – to predict how these systems change over time and under varying conditions, and to develop solutions to the world’s most pressing health and environmental issues. Systems biology, ultimately, creates the potential for entirely new kinds of exploration, and drives constant innovation in biology-based technology and computation. 

Biofuels are energy sources made from living things, or the waste that living things produce. Supporters of biofuels argue that their use could significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions; while burning the fuels produces carbon dioxide, growing the plants or biomass removes carbon diozide from the atmosphere.

A biofuel is a fuel that is produced through contemporary biological processes, such as agriculture and anaerobic digestion, rather than a fuel produced by geological processes such as those involved in the formation of fossil fuels, such as coal and petroleum, from prehistoric biological matter.

Geomicrobiology is the result of the combination of geology and microbiology. The field of geomicrobiology concerns the role of microbe and microbial processes in geological and geochemical processes and vice versa.  The field of geomicrobiology concerns the role of microbe and microbial processes in geological and geochemical processes. The field is especially important when dealing with microorganisms in aquifers and public drinking water supplies.

Paleomicrobiology – Past Human Infections' features the methods and main achievements in this emerging field of research at the intersection of microbiology and evolution, history and anthropology. New molecular approaches have already provided exciting results, such as confirmation of a single biotype of Yersinia pestis as the causative agent of historical plague pandemics, and the closer proximity of Mycobacterium tuberculosis from ancient skeletons to modern strains than to Mycobacterium bovis, shedding new light on the evolution of major human pathogens and pathogen–population relationships. Firm microbiological diagnoses also provide historians and anthropologists with new data on which to base evaluation of past epidemics.

Water is essential to life. An adequate, safe and accessible supply must be available to all. Improving access to safe drinking water can result in significant benefits to health. Every effort should be made to achieve a drinking water quality as safe as possible. Many people struggle to obtain access to safe water. A clean and treated water supply to each house may be the norm in Europe and North America, but in developing countries, access to both clean water and sanitation are not the rule, and waterborne infections are common. Two and a half billion people have no access to improved sanitation, and more than 1.5 million children die each year from diarrheal diseases .According to the WHO, the mortality of water-associated diseases exceeds 5 million people per year. From these, more that 50% are microbial intestinal infections, with cholera standing out in the first place.  The greatest microbial risks are associated with ingestion of water that is contaminated with human or animal feces. Wastewater discharges in fresh waters and costal seawaters are the major source of fecal microorganisms, including pathogens.

3rd World Congress and Expo on Applied Microbiology will be organized at Dubai,UAE  from November 7-9, 2016 around the theme “ Global Microbiology Congress: One platform to gather world renowned Microbiologists”. This congress is expecting audience such as experts from food microbiology, aquaculture microbiology, probiotics, industrial microbiology, Microbiologists Consultant Virologists, Parasitologists, Presidents, Biologists, Pathologists, Mycologists, Bacteriologists, Clinical Microbiologists, Marine microbiologists, Food technologists, System Biologists and researchers belonging to Applied Microbial Industries and Institute, Biotech and Pharmaceuticals sectors from Denmark, Istanbul, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Netherlands, Germany, France, Italy, Brazil, Turkey, Israel, India, China and Japan.

Soil is an excellent culture media for the growth and development of various microorganisms. Soil is not an inert static material but a medium pulsating with life. Soil is now believed to be dynamic or living system. Soil contains several distinct groups of microorganisms and amongst them bacteria, fungi, actinomycetes, algae, protozoa and viruses are the most important. But bacteria are more numerous than any other kinds of microorganisms. Microorganisms form a very small fraction of the soil mass and occupy a volume of less than one percent. In the upper layer of soil the microbial population is very high which decreases with depth of soil. Each organisms or a group of organisms are responsible for a specific change or transformation in the soil. The final effect of various activities of microorganisms in the soil is to make the soil fit for the growth & development of higher plants. Soil microorganisms, such as bacteria and fungi, control ecosystem functioning through decomposition and nutrient cycling and may serve as indicators of land-use change and ecosystem health.

Veterinary Microbiology is concerned with microbial (bacterial, fungal, viral) diseases of domesticated vertebrate animals (livestock, companion animals, fur-bearing animals, game, poultry, fish) that supply food, other useful products or companionship. In addition, Microbial diseases of wild animals living in captivity, or as members of the feral fauna will also be considered if the infections are of interest because of their interrelation with humans (zoonoses) and/or domestic animals. Studies of antimicrobial resistance are also included, provided that the results represent a substantial advance in knowledge. 

Diagnostic Microbiology and Infectious Disease also covers such areas as laboratory and clinical management of microbial diseases, epidemiology and pathogenesis of infections, automation in the diagnostic microbiology laboratory, and antibiotic susceptibility testing.

Pharmaceutical Microbiology is an applied branch of Microbiology. It involves the study of microorganisms associated with the manufacture of pharmaceuticals e.g. minimizing the number of microorganisms in a process environment, omitting microorganisms and microbial by-products like exotoxin and endotoxin from water and other starting materials, and ascertaining the culminated pharmaceutical product is sterile Other aspects of pharmaceutical microbiology include the research and development of anti-infective agents, the utilization of microorganisms to detect mutagenic and carcinogenic activity in prospective drugs, and the utilization of microorganisms in the manufacture of pharmaceutical products like insulin and human magnification hormone. Pharmaceutical microbiologists are required to assess cleanrooms and controlled environments for contamination (viable and particulate) and to introduce contamination control strategies. This includes a construal of peril assessment. . While inoculation of human pathogenic bacteria, fungi or viruses poses the most conspicuous peril to the patient, it should additionally be realized that microorganisms conventionally regarded as non-pathogenic which inadvertently gain access to body cavities in sufficiently astronomically immense numbers can withal result in an astringent, often fatal, infection. Consequently, injections, ophthalmic preparations, irrigation fluids, dialysis solutions, sutures and ligatures, implants, certain surgical dressings, as well as instruments indispensable for their utilization or administration, must be presented for use in a sterile condition and in such a way that they remain sterile throughout the period of avail. Principles of the methods employed to sterilize pharmaceutical products are autoclaving and filtration as opportune methods applicable to aqueous liquids, and dry heat for nonaqueous and dry solid preparations.

New techniques like in vitro gene-manipulation have opened up new approaches to vaccine development. This has rapidly grown into an exciting area of research in both academic and industrial laboratories. There are a number of scientific challenges which require multidisciplinary teams to solve problems in developing new immunogens. This has challenged our existing knowledge about protein structure and conformation, microbial pathogenicity and the immune system. Recombinant-DNA techniques are invaluable as tools of analysis and antigen production. The surface of micro-organisms can also be minutely explored with the use of synthetic peptides and monoclonal antibodies. Nevertheless, these new technologies do not allow us to circumvent the need for detailed understanding of pathogens and the disease process. A lot of researches are going on improving/developing new vaccines and administration of vaccines.

A key ingredient in successful entrepreneurship is self-knowledge. (Applied Microbiology-2016) aims to bring together all existing and budding bio entrepreneurs to share experiences and present new innovations and challenges in microbiological community. Each year, over a million companies are started in the world with about 5–10 of them classified as high technology companies. Turning ideas into business ventures is tricky and the opportunity-recognition step is critical in new venture creation. This gestalt in the entrepreneur's perception of the relationship between the invention and final product is refined into a business model that describes how the venture will make money or provide an appropriate return to the potential investors. Biological science is complex and rapidly changing and requires a specialized knowledge to understand the value of the innovation and its competitive position in the industry. Although life scientists are typically the founders of biotech companies, studies have shown that the most successful high tech startups are founded by a team of two to three individuals with mixed backgrounds, substantial industry experience and a very clear market and product focus at founding. This three day community-wide conference will be a highly interactive forum that will bring experts in areas ranging from structural microbiology to signaling pathways to novel therapeutic approaches to the scientific hub. In addition to our outstanding speakers, we will also showcase short talks and poster presentations from submitted abstracts.The speakers will discuss how microbes can be engineered to report using computational inputs from their local environment. This session will include combined efforts of cutting edge synthetic biology research to highlight the current state, challenges and future of engineered microbial communities.
