Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMolecular Genotyping of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Isolates from TurkeyBerrin Gencer, Thomas M. ShinnickTo survey the circulating strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in Turkey, all clinical isolates (381 patients) recovered in laboratories in six cities during one-month periods were collected and typed by IS6110-DNA fingerprinting and spoligotyping. Drug susceptibilities were also determined. About 23% of the isolates were resistant to one or more drugs and about 4% were multidrug resistant (i.e., resistant to at … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,731 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAntimicrobial Susceptibility of Bovine Subclinical Mastitis and During Milk Separation Isolates and the Accompanying Hygienic PracticesSultan Farag Nagati, Safaa Khamis HassanMilk is considered one of the most perfect foods for humans and milk contains many nutrients. Subclinical mastitis has been counted as a great problem for dairy manufacture. The disease causes severe economic losses due to lower milk production, treatment costs and increased labor and milk retained for human consumption after treatment and premature culling. A cross-sectional study was conducted … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 2 · 7 Apr 2021 · 6,506 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAntimicrobial Activity Studies of Bactoriocin Produced by Lactobacilli Isolates from Carrot KanjiHarshada M. Sowani, Prakash ThoratProblem statement: In the present study, Staphylococcus aureus a causative agent of food poisoning is selected as a test organism to study the antimicrobial effect of bacteriocin. S. aureus produces number of exotoxins and enterotoxins which enters the body via contaminated food causing illness. Approach: In this case the use of antibiotics is one of the ways of treatment, but … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 2 Mar 2012 · 8,543 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCan Grammar Define Similarity of Human Natural Languages?Vladimir Nikolaevich Polyakov, Ivan Sergeevich Anisimov, Elena Andreevna MakarovaThe aim of the present study is to show that similarity of human natural languages can be conveyed not only by phonetic data, but also by grammar. The paper regards the largest typological database WALS and its possibilities in the sphere of genealogic relationship of languages. Using the method of two-objective optimization and data mining, which is new for linguistic … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 10 · 5 Oct 2016 · 7,286 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsExtended-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 PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsInhibition of Panton-Valentine Leukocidin Toxin Induced Neutrophil Cell Lysis by Vancoplus in Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus InfectionsManu Chaudhary, Santosh Kumar Patnaik, Anurag PayasiPantone Valentine Leukocidin (PVL) is a cytotoxin associated with virulence of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). This study was undertaken to analyze the prevalence of PVL among MRSA strains and to study the effect of adjuvants (L-lysine, L-arginine, Ethylenediamine Tetraacetic Acid (EDTA) as well as drugs on PVL induced neutrophil cell lysis. Further, in vitro activity of Vancoplus, vancomycin, linezolid, teicoplanin … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 20 Dec 2014 · 7,106 accessesView PDFCite

Subsequently, antibacterial activity of drugs was tested against the selected clinical isolates. A total of 53 clinical isolates involving 18 obligate … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 12 Apr 2014 · 9,192 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSYNERGY OF A NOVEL ANTIBIOTIC ADJUVANT ENTITY AGAINST MULTI DRUG RESISTANT ENTEROBACTERIACEAEManu Chaudhary, Anurag PayasiIn the present investigation, we investigated the in vitro interaction of ceftriaxone plus sulbactam with disodium edetate, a Non Antibiotic Adjuvant (NAA) against selected clinical isolates and in vitro susceptibility studies were also performed. The isolates were tested against a range of ratios of ceftriaxone and sulbactam using a microdilution checkerboard method. Having determined the appropriate ratios of ceftriaxone plus … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 1 Nov 2013 · 7,416 accessesView PDFCite
