Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMultidrug Resistant Uropathogens among Egyptian Pregnant WomenWafaa Salah Metwally, Walid Mohamed ElnagarUrinary Tract Infections (UTIs) in pregnancy is a common medical problem associated with significant increase in the risk of fetal morbidity and mortality. The effective appropriate antimicrobial agent is a major concern as many effective antimicrobial groups cannot be used due to their potential toxicity to the fetus as well as the increasing rates of Multidrug-Resistant (MDR) strain isolation. This … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 21 Dec 2019 · 7,487 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment of an Immunomagnetic Separation Method for Viable Salmonella Typhimurium Detected by Flow CytometryShakil Ahmed, Horst-Günter Rubahn, Helmut ErdmannA very small number of bacterial pathogens may have fatal effects on food safety. In spite of having great advancements in bioanalytical methods, most of the accepted detection methods are still cultivation based and thus time consuming. This leads to an intense need for efficient and rapid methods for detection of food-related bacteria. In this study, a flow cytometry based … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 4 · 25 Nov 2016 · 7,574 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEconomic Evaluation of Streptococcus Pneumoniae Culture MediaVictor Morais, Norma SuárezStreptococcus pneumoniae, a major bacterial pathogen worldwide, requires a complex medium for culture, which complicates harvesting of antigens for vaccine production. Here we present an economic evaluation of factors affecting the production cost of a chemically defined medium for the scale up of fermentation of S. pneumoniae, compared with the most traditional fermentation media. A basic laboratory-scale experiment of 1 … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 27 May 2016 · 8,374 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEtiology of Meningitis from Patients Suspected of Meningitis Attending Tribhuvan University Teaching Hospital, Kathmandu, NepalPinky Pandey, Bharat Jha, Anima ShresthaMeningitis is an inflammatory infection of the membranes surrounding the brain and spinal cord, which occurs either as a primary disease or secondarily to disease in some other parts of the body. Its most frequent causes are Neisseria meningitidis, Streptococcus pneumoniae and Haemophilus influenzae. The epidemiological trend of acute meningitis varies with time and geography. Information on the relative frequency … …Current Research in Microbiology, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 14 Jul 2015 · 9,143 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractISOLATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF RHIZOBIA AND PLANT GROWTH-PROMOTING RHIZOBACTERIA AND THEIR EFFECTS ON GROWTH OF RICE SEEDLINGSK. Z. Tan, O. Radziah, M. S. Halimi et al.Biofertilizer is a relatively safer, environmentally friendly and cost-effective approach as an alternative to reduce chemical fertilizer usage. The selection of bacterial strains with multiple beneficial characteristics are important to maximize the effectiveness on the host plant. Due to aforementioned interest, several Plant Growth-Promoting Rhizobacterial (PGPR) and rhizobial strains were isolated from rice and legume roots, respectively, at four locations … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 15 Apr 2014 · 10,904 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPREVALENCE AND ANTIMICROBIAL RESISTANCE ASSESSMENT OF SUBCLINICAL MASTITIS IN MILK SAMPLES FROM SELECTED DAIRY FARMSMurugaiyah Marimuthu, Faez Firdaus Jesse Abdullah, Konto Mohammed et al.This study was conducted in order to determine the prevalence and bacteriological assessment of subclinical mastitis and antimicrobial resistance of bacterial isolates from dairy cows in different farms around Selangor, Malaysia. A total of 120 milk samples from 3 different farms were randomly collected and tested for subclinical mastitis using California Mastitis Test (CMT), as well as for bacterial culture … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 12 Mar 2014 · 9,223 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPHENOTYPING, VIRULENCE CHARACTERISTICS OF AEROMONAS SPECIES AND THE EFFECTS OF ESSENTIAL PLANT OILS AS ANTIMICROBIAL AGENTS AGAINST PATHOGENIC ISOLATES FROM DIFFERENT SOURCESAhmed M.A. Mansour, Hoda M. Zaki, Nibal A. Hassan, Nihad A.M. El-NasharAeromonas species are increasingly recognized as enteric pathogens. Faecal samples from 20 cow, 45 sheep; 60 goat and 60 camels were examined for the presence of Aeromonas species, which was also sought in the available drinking water (55 well water and 52 drinking chlorinated tap water were also examined). Aeromonas species was isolated more frequently from goats (21.7%) than from … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 18 Jan 2014 · 8,020 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRapid Real Time PCR Based Detection of Cell Count in Case of Urinary Tract InfectionPoulomi Nandy, Ashoke Ranjan Thakur, Shaon Ray ChaudhuriMicrobial identification and antimicrobial susceptibility testing methods currently used in clinical microbiology laboratories require at least two to three days because they rely on the growth and isolation of micro-organisms. This long, but necessary, delay has enormous consequences on prophylactic usage of antimicrobial drugs. This study was an attempt to reduce this detection time span. Taq Man Real Time PCR … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 22 Jun 2013 · 8,214 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStaphylococcus aureus Nasal Carriage Among Injecting and Non-Injecting Drug Users and Antimicrobial SusceptibilityMojtaba Varshochi, Zahra Attari, Alka Hasani, Ali SeidiStaphylococcus Aureus (SA) is one of the most prevalent bacterial pathogens in human beings. Approximately 20% of healthy persons are persistent carriers and 60% are intermittent carriers of SA. Nasal cavity is one of the most important sites of its colonization. Intravenous (IV) drug abuse has been proposed as a risk factor for colonization of SA in the nasal mucosa. … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 23 May 2013 · 7,312 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExamination of Chitinolytic Bacteria in Alginate-Chitosan Encapsulation on Chili Seed Against Damping off Caused by Fusarium oxysporumDwi Suryanto, Affan Indarwan, Erman MunirOne alternative in biological control of plant pathogenic fungi is to provide biological agent inoculant in coated seed. This study was to evaluate potential control and viability of two chitinolytic bacteria, Enterobacter sp. BK15 and Bacillus sp. BK17 of alginate-chitosan encapsulation coated on chili seed against damping off caused by Fusarium oxysporum. Chili seed beads were stored at refrigerator and … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 5 Dec 2012 · 7,913 accessesView PDFCite
