Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDiversity and Resistance of Bacteria Isolated from a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) Surfaces and the Hands of Nurses in Jeddah-Saudi ArabiaRoqaiah M. Al-Jabri, Ahmed M. Al-Hejin, Rukaia Gashgari et al.Healthcare-Associated Infections (HAIs) are a serious problem for neonates when admitted to NICUs. The healthcare environment and healthcare workers' hands may be a source of transmission. Therefore, there is a need to find microbial sources and identify the contaminants to improve disinfection protocols to reduce HAIs. Out of the 169 samples collected on nutrient agar media from NICUs of a … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 5 Aug 2022 · 5,828 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMechanistic Insights of Actions of Metal Nanoparticles on Multidrug-Resistant BacteriaSeham S. Alzahrani, Hani Mohammed Ali, Mohamed M. AhmedMultidrug-Resistant bacteria (MDR) are the most serious threat to public health. The number of infections caused by resistant strains is on the rise all over the world. At this time, new techniques for developing antimicrobial drugs are becoming necessary. Metallic Nanoparticles (MNPs) in the biomedical field are one of the most promising methods to overcome antibiotic resistance. Nanoparticles have recently … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 2 · 22 Jun 2021 · 6,374 accessesView PDFCite
Case ReportOpen accessIn the abstractA Case of Leptospira Ards- “Obsession with COVID-19 Leading to Delayed Diagnosis of Common DiseasePrakash Tendulkar, Divanshee Sharma, Mukesh Bairwa, Ravi KantLeptospirosis is a bacterial infection caused by spirochaete. It’s a gram-negative bacterium. It spreads Through animal urine or soil or water contaminated with Animal urine (Rat), when coming into contact with mouth, nose, eyes or breach in the skin. It is more common in farmers and people involved in water sports. In leptospirosis symptoms can range from mild muscle pains, … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 17, Issue 2 · 30 Apr 2021 · 6,781 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAntimicrobial Resistance Pattern of Pseudomonas aeruginosa from Different Clinical Specimens: Survey ArticleHosniyeh E. Ladadweh, Hiba H. Falana, Jannat M. Ma’ali et al.Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P.A.) is a gram-negative, aerobic rod bacterium that mainly grows in soil and watery environments, infrequently being a part of microflora in healthy individuals. Since P.A. favors the growth in moistened areas, it can colonize in any simple aqueous solution, which in turn raises the risk of contamination and infection in hospital settings. The emergence of drug resistant … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 11 Jan 2021 · 8,396 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Di-(2-Ethylhexyl) Phthalate on the Microbial Community in Vegetables PhyllosphereXiaowei Fu, Dan WuA panel count method and a phospholipid fatty acid analysis technique were used to investigate the responses of Di-(2-Ethylhexyl) Phthalate (DEHP) pollutants to the phyllosphere microbial communities of Chinese Cabbage. The results of plate count analysis showed that the number of culturable microorganisms could be lower than that of water spray after treated with a certain amount of DEHP pollutant. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 11 Jan 2020 · 7,242 accessesView PDFCite
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 abstractAntimicrobial Effects of 1-Monocaprylin and 1-Monocaproin Through in vitro Growth Inhibition and Molecular Docking StudiesPalaniappan Maheswari, Kasthuri Revathi1-monocaproin and 1-monocaprylin synthesized through a novel process by the chemical reaction of glycidol and their respective fatty acids with copper acetate as the catalyst possessed the amphiphilic property. 1- monoacyl glycerols synthesized were found to exhibit antibacterial, antifungal, anti parasitic and antiviral properties. 1-monocaproin and 1-monocaprylin were able to show their antibacterial effect by inhibiting the growth of the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 19 Aug 2017 · 7,970 accessesView PDFCite
Letters to the EditorOpen accessIn the abstractSevere Sepsis Due to Raoultella PlanticolaChiara Casarsa, Filippo Mearelli, Gianni BioloRaultella planticola usually invaded immune compromised patients and has been considered a relatively harmless Gram-negative bacteria.
