    • Evaluation of prokaryotic diversity of five hot springs in Eritrea 

      Ghilamicael, Amanuel M.; Budambula, Nancy; Anami, Sylvester E.; Mehari, Tadesse; Boga, Hamadi I. (BioMed Central, 2017-09)
      Background: Total community rDNA was used to determine the diversity of bacteria and archaea from water, wet sediment and microbial mats samples of hot springs in the Eastern lowlands of Eritrea. The temperatures of ...

    • Physical and Chemical Characteristics of Five Hot Springs in Eritrea 

      Ghilamicael, Amanuel M.; Boga, Hamadi I.; Anami, Sylvester E.; Mehari, Tadesse; Budambula, Nancy (IISTE, 2017-07)
      Eritrea has a number of hot springs whose physicochemical characteristics are not documented. This study examined the thermal and chemical features of five hot springs located in the eastern escarpment of Eritrea. Field data ...

    • Potential human pathogenic bacteria in five hot springs in Eritrea revealed by next generation sequencing 

      Ghilamicael, Amanuel M.; Boga, Hamadi Iddi; Anam, Sylvester E.; Mehari, Tadesse; Budambula, Nancy (PLOS ONE, 2018-03)
      Human pathogens can survive and grow in hot springs. For water quality assessment, Escherichia coli or Enterococci are the main thermotolerant enteric bacteria commonly used to estimate the load of pathogenic bacteria ...

    • Thermotolerant bacteria of biotechnological potential from hot springs in Eritrea 

      Ghilamicael, Amanuel M.; Budambula, Nancy; Anami, Sylvester E.; Mehari, Tadesse; Boga, Hamadi Iddi (2018-06)
      Thermophiles are excellent sources of enzymes that can withstand and carry out reactions efficiently under high temperatures. This study isolated and characterised thermotolerant bacteria that produce enzymes of potential ...
