Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPrevalence and Genotypic Analysis and Antibiotic Resistance of Salmonella Species Isolated from Imported and Freshly Slaughtered ChickenWael K. Elfeil, Mahmoud E. Ezzat, Amira Fathi et al.Salmonellosis is a bacterial disease caused by different types of Salmonella species and associated with clinical disease in both human, birds and livestock species. Salmonellosis associated with severe economic impacts either from losses in poultry farm due to pathological picture losses, cost of medication, condemnation in slaughterhouse or zoonotic important. This study focused on the prevalence of Salmonellae in imported … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 2 · 28 May 2020 · 6,986 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparison of IncL/M Plasmids Using the Neighbor-Joining Method on Basis repA and excA GenesTouati Abdelaziz, Mairi AssiaThe aim of this study is to make comparison of IncL/M groups on basis of two genes candidates’ repA and excA genes. The sequences of 27 plasmids were compared using the neighbor-joining method. This method was used to construct a phylogenetic tree for the nucleotide sequences of two genes (repA and excA), using the program MEGA X software. The evolutionary … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 27 Feb 2020 · 7,088 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAntimicrobial Resistance of Campylobacter spp. and Arcobacter butzleri from Pets in MalaysiaMohammed Dauda Goni, Abdinasir Yusuf Osman, Saleha Abdul Aziz et al.The emergence of antimicrobial resistance in pets is not well understood and methods of surveillance are only beginning to be established in a few countries. The consequence of antimicrobial resistant Campylobacter and Arcobacter butzleri to public health is due to the propensity of the bacteria to swiftly acquire and disseminate resistance gene. Thus, making way for the emergence of new … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 29 Nov 2018 · 7,690 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDifferential Gene Transcription in Red Oak (Quercus rubra) Genotypes Resistant to Copper ToxicityProulx Migueal, Paul Michael, Charnelle Djeukam, Kabwe NkongoloToxicity of metals is a major abiotic stressor of plants. Copper (Cu) is one of the most abundant metals in soils from the Greater Sudbury Region (GSR) due to its mining history. Recent studies have described several transporters and chelating proteins involved in copper resistance. Quercus rubra (Red Oak) is a common species that grows in metal contaminated soils in … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 11 Dec 2017 · 8,545 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudy the Impact of T-helper 1 Cytokine (TNF-α) Polymorphisms on Susceptibility/Resistance to Brucellosis in Makkah RegionAlaa B. Ismael, Adil Mergani, Salama A-H Mostafa, Abdelmoneim M. SalimPolymorphisms in the regulatory regions of cytokine genes may not only increase susceptibility to some infectious diseases but also affect the course and prognosis of the disease. TNF-α is considered an important Th1 cytokines that plays critical roles in control of Brucella infection and in macrophage activation. In this study, we are going to analyze the relationship of two polymorphisms … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 9 Aug 2016 · 7,119 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExtended-Spectrum β-Lactamases Producing Escherichia coli Strains Monitored Over 4 Years in The University Hospital in Košice, SlovakiaViera Lovayová, Lucia Vargová, Mária Nagyová et al.The beta-lactamases with extended spectrum of activity (ESBL) are medically one of the most important group of enzymes. The presented study provides identification and determination of the spectrum of resistance against different and clinically used antimicrobial drugs in the clinical isolates of Escherichia coli. These isolates had their origin in different departments of the University Hospital L. Pasteur in Košice. … …Current Research in Microbiology, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 16 Jun 2016 · 14,537 accessesView PDF Cite

EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractProtecting crop species from biotic and abiotic constraints in the era of Global Change: are we ready for this challenge?Marco Landi, Giovanni BenelliReliable and affordable supply of food is of crucial importance to the progress and stability of human societies. During the last century, we have assisted to an extraordinary increase of crop yields, especially for the most widespread and consumed crop species, such as rice, wheat, corn and soybean. The Broadbalk experiment, one of the oldest continuous agronomic experiments in the … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 4 Jun 2016 · 8,399 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractScreening of Multi-Drug and Metal Resistant Aeromonas Species from Diverse SourcesRamasamy Amsaveni, Muthusamy Sureshkumar, Joseph Reshma Mary et al.The abuse of antibiotics in the modern era, lead the microorganisms to develop resistance. Antibiotic resistance becomes the part of natural selection in bacteria which allows them to survive in different environments. Bacteria like Aeromonas are able to adapt to changes in the environment such as an increase in antibiotic concentration, which often results in the development of mutations allowing … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 7 Aug 2015 · 7,575 accessesView PDF Cite
