Abstract: Contamination of environment by a multitude of pollutants is becoming a global health concern. Lot of methods are being used for bioremediation of those pollutants. A method and system for one or more pollutants has been provided. The sample is collected from a site containing pollutants. Pollutants are then isolated from the sample. Further, a knowledgebase various types of degraders of those pollutant is created. Using this knowledgebase a map of microbes is created. The map of microbes is then used to design a first microbial consortia and a second microbial consortia which together contributes genes, proteins and enzymes required for degradation of the pollutants. And finally, a concoction of the first and/or second microbial consortia is administered on the site. The method further comprises the checking the efficacy of the administered consortia and further comprise re-administration of the concoction.

Abstract: System and method for assessing preterm delivery risk for pregnant subject is disclosed. Existing preterm delivery risk assessment methods provide results in late second or third trimester of pregnancy, so little time is available for medical advice. Presently disclosed method and system predict preterm delivery risk within 15 weeks of pregnancy. Microbiome characterization data obtained from microbiome sample from pregnant subject. ‘Microbial taxonomic abundance profile’ generated from microbiome characterization data, contains abundance values of microbes present in the microbiome sample. ‘Taxonomic Composition Skew’ value, and distribution characteristic value for ‘microbial taxonomic abundance profile’, quantifying biases in abundance values of microbes from the microbial taxonomic abundance profile, is computed.
