Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiosynthesis of Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles and Assay of Antibacterial ActivityEmad J. Ibrahem, Karkaz M. Thalij, Mahmood K. Saleh, Amin S. BadawyIn this study Out of 280 urinary tract infections samples, 212(75.7%) bacterial isolates were recovered. Based on, morphological, cultural and biochemical testes, further, confirmed the results by VITEK 2 System there were 54 (30.2%) of gram positive whereas the 158 (69.8%) of gram negative. The bacterial isolates were distributed as Escherichia coli followed by Klebsiella pneumoniae, Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 3 Apr 2017 · 8,880 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractThe Timeless Contribution of Rootstocks towards Successful Horticultural Farming: From Ancient Times to the Climate Change EraIoannis E. PapadakisGrafting is a horticultural practice by which living vegetative plant organs (root, stem and/or buds) of either the same genotype or, usually, different genotypes belonging to the same species, genus, subfamily and/or family, are tightly connected to each other to form a double-compound plant. In fact, it is a method of asexual (clonal-vegetative) propagation of plants. The basal part of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 16 Dec 2016 · 9,521 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 abstractBacteria Contaminants and their Antibiotic Sensitivity from Selected Herbal Medicinal Products from Eldoret and Mombasa, KenyaLucia Keter, Richard Too, Nicholas Mwikwabe et al.Herbal products are used worldwide for the treatment and prevention of various diseases and currently represent a substantial proportion of the global drug market. However, these products have the potential of being contaminated by different microorganisms due to poor hygienic practices during handling, processing and packaging. The main aim of this study was to evaluate microbial quality of herbal products … …Current Research in Microbiology, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 28 Jan 2016 · 17,160 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAntimicrobial Activities of Unconventional Compounds against Some Bacteria Associated with Skin Infections in Humans, Sheep and GoatsIman Shabana, Amira El-AdlyBacterial skin infections are a common problem encountered in clinical practice and causing great economic losses for sheep and goats producers. Increasing multidrug resistance of pathogens paves the way for reconsidering alternative medicine. The present study was carried out to explore the antibacterial activities of different volumes; 5, 25, 50 and 100 µL of gold nanoparticles (NPS) and the aqueous … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 11 Jan 2016 · 8,021 accessesView PDFCite

EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractThe Food Additives Nitrite and Nitrate and Microbiological Safety of Food ProductsStefanie Müller-Herbst, Anna Mühlig, Jan Kabisch et al.In Germany, raw sausages are typically produced according to a technology referred to as hurdle technology (Leistner, 2000). The combination of several stressful conditions should successfully inhibit growth and survival of pathogenic bacteria, which can be regularly found in raw pork or beef material (Mataragas et al., 2008; Rhoades et al., 2009). Hurdles applied during raw sausage fermentation are the … …Current Research in Microbiology, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 29 Jun 2015 · 10,378 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractNeutrophil Extracellular Traps as Therapeutic Targets for Inflammatory DiseaseRory R. KoenenNeutrophilic granulocytes, or neutrophils are the most abundant circulating white blood cell and constitute a first line of defense against pathogens. They are characterized by a large polymorphic lobular nucleus and the presence of many secretory granules in their cytoplasm. Neutrophils are essential for a functional host defense, as is evidenced by the occurrence of severe infections in individuals with … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 25 Feb 2015 · 8,737 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiocontrol of Escherichia Coli O126:H7 in Skim Milk Using BacteriophagesMona H. Tolba, Arafa M.S. Meshref, Mohamed M.A. ZeinhomEscherichia coli (E. coli) is currently one of the most predominant human food-borne pathogens. In the dairy industry, recently, attention has been drawn to the potential use of bacteriophages (phages) to control bacteria in dairy products. In this study, a cocktail of three Escherichia coli bacteriophages (EcoM-AG2, EcoM-AG3 and EcoM-AG10) was tested to evaluate its ability to control Escherichia coli … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 18 Dec 2014 · 7,831 accessesView PDFCite
