2^nd International Conference on Microbiology June 14-15, 2021 Tokyo, Japan

Track 1: Microbiology

Microbiology is the investigation of all living creatures that are too little to possibly be obvious with the unaided eye. This incorporates microscopic organisms, archaea, infections, parasites, prions, protozoa, and green growth, all in all, known as 'microorganisms'.

These microorganisms assume key jobs in supplement cycling, biodegradation/biodeterioration, environmental change, food decay, the reason and control of sickness, and biotechnology. On account of their flexibility, microorganisms can be given something to do from various perspectives: making life-saving medications, the production of biofuels, tidying up contamination, and creating/preparing food and drink.

Microbiologists study organisms and the absolute most significant revelations that have supported present-day culture have come about because of the examination of celebrated microbiologists, for example, Jenner and his immunization against smallpox, Fleming and the disclosure of penicillin, Marshall and the ID of the connection between Helicobacter pylori disease and stomach ulcers, and Zur Hausen, who recognized the connection between papilloma infection and cervical malignant growth.

Microbiology research has been and keeps on being, integral to meeting a large number of the momentum worldwide desires and difficulties, for example, looking after food, water, and energy security for a solid populace on tenable earth.
 

Track: 2 Antimicrobial Resistance

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) compromises the powerful avoidance and treatment of an always expanding scope of contaminations brought about by microbes, parasites, infections and growths. AMR happens when microbes, infections, growths and parasites change over the long haul and at this point don't react to drugs making contaminations harder to treat and expanding the danger of sickness spread, extreme ailment and passing. Thus, the prescriptions become inadequate and diseases endure in the body, expanding the danger of spread to other people.
Antimicrobials - including anti-microbials, antivirals, antifungals and antiparasitics - are prescriptions used to forestall and treat contaminations in people, creatures and plants. Microorganisms that create antimicrobial opposition are some of the time alluded to as "superbugs".

Track:3 Microbiomes

Microbiome may be a term that describes the genome of all the microorganisms, symbiotic and pathogenic, living in and on all vertebrates. The gut microbiome is comprised of the collective genome of microbes inhabiting the gut including bacteria, archaea, viruses, and fungi. Information about these microbes living in our guts is growing at an incredible rate. Till recently, heterogeneity among human populations was attributed to varied allelic sorts of genes. The human intestine harbors trillions of bacteria which constitute more genome than all the human cells within the body. The distribution of microbes is spatial within the gut, with the colon containing the most important diversity and abundance of microorganisms. The colon also harbors more aerobes than the tiny intestine, due to its proximity to the environment.

Track 4 Vaccines & Antibiotics Production

A vaccine is a biological preparation that provides active acquired immunity to a particular disease. A vaccine typically contains an agent that resembles a disease-causing microorganism and is often made from weakened or killed forms of the microbe, its toxins, or one of its surface proteins. The agent stimulates the body's immune system to recognize the agent as a threat, destroy it, and to further recognize and destroy any of the microorganisms associated with that agent that it may encounter in the future. Vaccines can be prophylactic or therapeutic. Vaccines can be produced in four stages Antigen generation, cultivating or isolating the Antigens, Antigen purification, Adjuvant additions & Vaccine formulation. An antibiotic is a type of antimicrobial drug used in the treatment and prevention of bacterial infections. They may either kill or inhibit the growth of bacteria. A limited number of antibiotics also possess antiprotozoal activity. Antibiotics are not effective against viruses such as the common cold or influenza; drugs which inhibit viruses are termed antiviral drugs or antivirals rather than antibiotics. Antiviral drugs are a class of medication used specifically for treating viral infections rather than bacterial ones. Most antivirals are used for specific viral infections, while a broad-spectrum antiviral is effective against a wide range of viruses. Antibiotics are not the same as vaccines. Some antibiotics act by killing the bacteria while others prevent the bacteria from multiplying, leaving your own immune system to 'mop them up'. Vaccines are used to prevent infection, particularly viral infections. Antibiotics can be produced in four stages like Microbial Culture preparation, Fermentation, Isolation & Purification of antibiotics, Antibiotics refining, Quality Control of Antibiotics. This session covers the researches in Vaccines and Antibiotics.

Track 5 Pharmaceutical Microbiology

Pharmaceutical Microbiology is a connected branch of Microbiology. It includes the investigation of microorganisms related with the produce of pharmaceuticals e.g. limiting the quantity of microorganisms in a procedure situation, barring microorganisms and microbial side-effects like exotoxin and endotoxin from water and other beginning materials, and guaranteeing the completed pharmaceutical item is sterile. Other parts of pharmaceutical microbiology incorporate the innovative work of hostile to infective operators, the utilization of microorganisms to identify mutagenic and cancer-causing movement in forthcoming medications, and the utilization of microorganisms in the fabricate of pharmaceutical items like insulin and human development hormone

Track 6 Clinical Microbiology and Antimicrobials

Clinical Microbiology is a branch of medical science concerned with the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of infectious diseases. Moreover, this field of science is concerned about various clinical applications of microbes for the improvement of health. An antimicrobial is an agent that kills microorganisms or stops their growth. Antimicrobial medicines can be grouped according to the microorganisms they act primarily against. For example, antibiotics are used against bacteria and antifungals are used against fungi. They can also be classified according to their function. Agents that kill microbes are called microbicidal, while those that merely inhibit their growth are called biostatic. The use of antimicrobial medicines to treat infection is known as antimicrobial chemotherapy, while the use of antimicrobial medicines to prevent infection is known as antimicrobial prophylaxis. The main classes of antimicrobial agents are disinfectants ("nonselective antimicrobials" such as bleach), which kill a wide range of microbes on non-living surfaces to prevent the spread of illness, antiseptics (which are applied to living tissue and help reduce infection during surgery), and antibiotics (which destroy microorganisms within the body). The term "antibiotic" originally described only those formulations derived from living organisms but is now also applied to synthetic antimicrobials, such as the sulphonamides, or fluoroquinolones. The term also used to be restricted to antibacterials (and is often used as a synonym for them by medical professionals and in medical literature), but its context has broadened to include all antimicrobials. Antibacterial agents can be further subdivided into bactericidal agents, which kill bacteria, and bacteriostatic agents, which slow down or stall bacterial growth. In response, further advancements in antimicrobial technologies have resulted in solutions that can go beyond simply inhibiting microbial growth. Instead, certain types of porous media have been developed to kill microbes on contact

Track 7 Industrial Microbiology

Industrial microbiology is a branch of biotechnology that applies microbial sciences to create industrial products in mass quantities. There are multiple ways to manipulate a microorganism in order to increase maximum product yields. Introduction of mutations into an organism many be accomplished by introducing them to mutagens. The manipulation of organisms in order to yield a specific product has many applications to the real world like the production of some antibiotics, vitamins, enzymes, amino acids, solvents, alcohol and daily products. Industrial microbiology can be applied for Medical purposes, Food Industry, Fermentation, Agriculture, Biopesticides, Wastewater management, Metabolic Engineering, Chemical applications, Pharmaceutical: develops novel, small-molecule drugs and medical devices.

Track 8 Bacterial and Fungal Infectious Diseases

A bacterial infection is a proliferation of a harmful strain of bacteria on or inside the body. Bacteria can infect any area of the human body. Pneumonia and food poisoning are just a few illnesses that may be caused by harmful bacteria. Bacteria occur in three basic shapes: rod-shaped, spherical, or helical. Bacteria is additionally classified as gram-positive or gram-negative. Fungal infections represent the invasion of tissues by one or more species of fungi and they range from superficial, localized skin conditions to deeper tissue infections to serious lung, blood or systemic diseases. Types of fungi include molds, yeasts, and mushrooms. Fungi can cause different types of illnesses, including:

• Asthma or allergies.
• Rashes or infections on the skin and nails
• Lung infections with symptoms similar to the flu or tuberculosis
• Bloodstream infections
• Meningitis

Track 9 Water Borne Diseases

Waterborne diseases are caused by a variety of microorganisms, biotoxins, and toxic contaminants, which lead to devastating illnesses such as cholera, schistosomiasis and other gastrointestinal problems. These diseases can be spread while bathing, washing, drinking water, or by eating food exposed to contaminated water. The germs in the faeces can cause the diseases by even slight contact. This contamination may occur due to floodwaters, septic fields, and sewer pipes. Diarrhea and vomiting are the most reported symptoms of waterborne illness. Malaria transmission is facilitated when large numbers of people sleep outdoors or sleep in houses that have no protection against invading mosquitoes. Malaria mosquitoes, tropical black flies, and bilharzias snails can be controlled with efficient drainage system because they all depend on water to complete their life cycles. Clean water is a pre-requisite for reducing the spread of water-borne diseases among the humans. 

Track 10 Prevention, Control and Treatment of Infectious Diseases

We can prevent the spread of infectious diseases by washing hands regularly, using antibiotics sensibly, avoiding drinking of contaminated water, controlling vectors of infection. Getting vaccinated. Bacterial infections are usually treated using antibiotics while viral infections are usually treated with therapies like rest and increased fluid intake. Vaccines are available to prevent many common infectious diseases, including hepatitis, diphtheria, influenza. Antivirals, antifungals and antiparasitics are used to treat specific diseases.
