Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMethicilin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Carriage amongst Healthcare Workers of the Critical Care Units in a Nigerian HospitalA. Fadeyi, B.O. Bolaji, O.O. Oyedepo et al.Problem statement: Methicilin Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA) Nosocomial Infection (NI) outbreaks and prevalence among various populations are well reported in literature particularly for developed countries. NI due to MRSA is a known cause of increased hospital stay, cost, morbidity and mortality especially among the critically ill. There is paucity of information on MRSA in developing nations including the carriage by … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 9,100 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIsolation and Characterization of Thermophilic Cellulase-Producing Bacteria from Empty Fruit Bunches-Palm Oil Mill Effluent CompostAzhari Samsu Baharuddin, Mohamad Nafis Abd Razak, Lim Siong Hock et al.Problems statement: Lack of information on locally isolated cellulase-producing bacterium in thermophilic compost using a mixture of Empty Fruit Bunch (EFB) and Palm Oil Mill Effluent (POME) as composting materials. Approach: The isolation of microbes from compost heap was conducted at day 7 of composting process where the mixture of composting materials consisted of 45.8% cellulose, 17.1% hemicellulose and 28.3% … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2010 · 12,155 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiological Control of Rice Blast (Magnaporthe oryzae) by use of Streptomyces sindeneusis isolate 263 in GreenhouseM. Ebrahimi Zarandi, G.H. Shahidi Bonjar, F. Padasht Dehkaei et al.Soil Actinomycetes particularly Streptomyces spp. have antagonistic activity against wide range of plant pathogens. In the recent decades they have attracted high interests as biocontrol agents. In search for finding such principles, in vitro suppression of Magnaporthe oryzae the causal agent of rice blast disease was studied by use of Streptomyces sindeneusis isolate 263 in greenhouse. Spray of rice seedling-leaves … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2009 · 11,492 accessesView PDFCite
