Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIn Vitro Activity of Cephalexin against Community-Acquired Urinary Escherichia coli, Klebsiella and Proteus species IsolatesHumodi A. Saeed, Amira Saad Eldin MohammedProblem statement: Resistance among urinary tract pathogens to conventional antibiotics has been considered a health problem worldwide. The aim of this study was to evaluate the in vitro activity of cephalexin on urinary enterobacterial isolates. Approach: Patients with community-acquired urinary tract infections were microbiologically investigated. Urine specimens were collected from each patient. The specimens were cultured on bacteriological media. The … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2010 · 8,182 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparison of Two Regimens of Nigella sativa Extract for Treatment of Subclinical Mastitis Caused by Staphylococcus aureusHamideh Ghodrati Azadi, Nima FarzanehProblem statement: Little research has focused on treatment of cows with subclinical mastitis during lactation. The seed of Nigella sativa Linn. (Ranunculaceae), commonly known as black seed or black cumin, is used in folk (herbal) medicine. Approach: Objectives of this study were to evaluate the effect of Nigella sativa Extract (NSE) with two regimens for treatment of subclinical mastitis in … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,742 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPrevalence and Antibiotics Susceptibility of Uropathogens in Patients from a Rural Environment, TamilnaduMaripandi Arjunan, Ali A. Al-Salamah, M. AmuthanProblem statement: Urinary Tract Infections (UTIs) in human, rural environment cause significant morbidity due to insanitary condition, lack of knowledge of personal hygiene, lack of patient’s compliance and economic burden. In our study, the bacterial etiologies and the resistance patterns found in human with serious UTIs and selecting optimal antimicrobial therapy. Approach: A total of 105 patients first morning mid … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,704 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of Earthquake Demolition Debris on the Quality of GroundwaterM. S. Benmenni, K. BenrachediProblem statement: Debris from construction or demolition/deconstruction processes have no significant impact on the environment as they are res-usable and inert. This has been also long admitted for solid waste generated by the demolition of damaged cities following violent earthquakes. Approach: This study is a contribution to the assessment of actual impact on the quality of groundwater of buried demolition … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2010 · 7,236 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMedia Improvement for Hydrogen Production Using C. acetobutylicum NCIMB 13357Mohd Sahaid Kalil, Hisham Salem Saleh Alshiyab, Wan Mohtar Wan YusoffProblem statement: Some component of fermentation medium showed to reduce the bacterial production of hydrogen. Approach: Reinforced clostridium medium is a selected medium for Clostridium species. Reformulation this medium regarding hydrogen production may focus on such medium composition that enhance or reduce the bacterial productivity. The optimum pH and temperature for hydrogen production were at initial pH of 7.0 and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,255 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractResistance to Third-Generation Cephalosporins and Other Antibiotics by Enterobacteriaceae in Western NigeriaA. O. Okesola, O. MakanjuolaProblem statement: The emergence and spread of resistance to third-generation cephalosporins are threatening to create species resistant to all currently available agents. The most common cause of bacterial resistance to beta-lactam antibiotics is the production of beta-lactamases and many of the 2nd and 3rd-generation penicillins and cephalosporins were specifically designed to resist the hydrolytic action of major β-lactamases. However new … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,007 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAlteration of the Aquifer Water in Hyperarid Climate, by Wastewater: Cases of Groundwater from Ouargla (Northern Sahara, Algeria)Djidel Mohamed, Bousnoubra-Kherici Houria, Kherici Nacer, Nezli Imed-EddineThe present study is registered, on the area of Ouargla (the Sahara septentrional, Algeria) reports of the aquifer contamination by the anarchistic urban rejections. By its geomorphology (basin), its hyperarid climate and the presence of chotts, the area is subjected to an important degree of vulnerability, encouraged by the discharges of wastewater (domestic and irrigation). These factors expose aquifer's water … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,108 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVulnerability and Pollution Risks in the Alluvial Aquifer of Tebessa-MorsottS. Kachi, N. Kherici, N. KachiWe studied the vulnerability and risks of pollution of the alluvial aquifer of Tebessa-Morsott that ranks amongst the major groundwater reservoirs of the region. The method used to asses groundwater vulnerability was the DRASTIC method, based on seven parameters that affect and control the groundwater flow: Depth to groundwater, Impact of the unsaturated zone, net recharge, aquifer media, hydraulic conductivity, … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 6,812 accessesView PDFCite
