Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProfiling and Curing from Shigella Spp Isolated from Plasmid Diarrheal PatientsMunim R. Ali, Raad N. Hasan, Ali I. Mohammed, Ahmaed A. AbbasProblem statement: Shigellosis is a common infectious disease especially in underdeveloped countries. The bacteria are primarily transmitted through the faecal-oral route. The inflammatory process of acute Shigella infection affects the colon and is characterized clinically by fever, cramping abdominal pain with frequent loose stools that might contain mucus, pus and blood. Approach: This study determined the susceptibility of Shigella isolates … …Current Research in Microbiology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,429 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAntibiotic Susceptibility and Immunomodulatory Potential of Chosen Bacterial PathogensM. Sujatha, P. Dhasarathan, B. KarthickProblem statement: Antibiotic susceptibility is still the best way for bacterial pathogen escape mechanism against immunity. Approach: In the present investigation, bacterial pathogens like Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Aeromonas hydrophila, Klebsiella and Pseudomonas aeruginosa were used to screen antibiotic susceptibility and immunomodulatory potential. Results: All the test pathogens were sensitive to all the test antibiotics 11±2 mm) except penicillin. The … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,829 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIsolation and Identification of Epiphytic Lactic Acid Bacteria from Guinea Grass (Panicum maximum)M. Pasebani, H. Yaakub, K. Sijam, A.R. AlimonProblem statement: Bacteria can perform a variety of beneficial functions, for example many lactic acid bacteria are responsible for fermentation of silage in the process of forage conservation. In the making of silage, epiphytic lactic acid bacteria are usually insufficient in numbers to promote efficient lactate fermentation. This study was conducted to identify the predominant indigenous bacteria, with emphasis on … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,482 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetermination of Adhesin Encoding Genes in Escherichia coli Isolates from Omphalitis of ChicksReza Ghanbarpour, Mahmood SalehiProblem statement: Omphalitis is one of the most common causes of mortality in chicks during the first week after hatching. Escherichia coli strains are the most common isolated bacteria from omphalitis cases of chickens. Bacterial colonization in the host cells surfaces is a critical first step in the pathogenesis of avian pathogenic Escherichia coli isolates. Thus the current study was … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 9,557 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Lactate Treatments on Survival of Food-Borne Pathogens in Frozen Shrimp (Penaeus merguiensis)Alireza Shirazinejad, Noryati IsmailProblem statement: Sodium lactate treatments were evaluated for reducing population of pathogenic bacteria such as Salmonella enteritidis, E. coli O157:H7, Vibrio parahaemolyticus and Vibrio cholerae, inoculated on frozen shrimp (Penaeus merguiensis). Approach: Fresh shrimp were inoculated with the above pathogens, separately, at level of 105 CFU g-1 and appliedin sodium lactate solutions (NaL: 0.5% and 2.5% v/v) and 1% Lactic … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,719 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAntibacterial Activity of Hydroalcoholic Extract of Callistemon citrinus and Albizia lebbeckSeyyed Mansour Seyydnejad, Masumeh Niknejad, Ismaieel Darabpoor, Hossein MotamediProblem statement: Callistemon citrinus and Albizia lebbeck are two kind of native plants in Khoozestan province in Iran, according to the agreement that medicinal plant could be replaced the medicine we are trying to determine the antibacterial effect of the named plants. Approach: The antibacterial properties of ethanolic and methanolic extract of Callistemon citrinus leaf and Albizia lebbeck leaf was … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2010 · 9,077 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Mini Review: Cholera Outbreak via ShellfishR. Suzita, A. S. Abdulamir, Fatimah Abu Bakar, R. SonProblem statement: Food borne illness occurs all over the world. Vibrio cholerae is the etiological agent of cholera which is spread by contaminated food, water or direct fecal contact with food handlers. There are also examples of sporadic outbreaks of illness attributed to raw products eaten unprocessed. Consequently, there was a widespread concern that food in international trade carries pathogenic … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,315 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAntibiotic Resistance of Escherichia Coli Isolated From Poultry and Poultry Environment of BangladeshMuhammad Ali Akond, S.M.R. Hassan, Saidul Alam, Momena ShirinProblem statement: Increased emergence in microbial resistance to antibiotics is a growing problem in Bangladesh, a tropical country with a large agrarian population having limited medical facilities. Wide spread use of antimicrobials in poultry farming here is a concern of multi-drug microbial resistance development that can potentially be transmitted to human pathogens even from non-pathogenic carrier strains. Attempt was made … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2009 · 11,762 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAntibacterial and Antioxidant Activities of Typhonium Flagelliforme (Lodd.) Blume TuberSyam Mohan, Ahmad Bustamam Abdul, Siddig Ibrahim Abdel Wahab et al.Problem Statement: Multiple drug resistance in human pathogenic micro organisms has developed due to indiscriminate use of modern antimicrobial drugs generally used in the management of infectious diseases. This increases the importance of exploiting the natural sources instead modern drugs. Approach: The antibacterial and antioxidant activity of different extracts from of Typhonium flagelliforme (L.) Blume tuber (family: Araceae) commonly called … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 10,420 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIdentification of Major Cultivable Aerobic Bacteria in the Oral Cavity of Malaysian SubjectsKoshy Philip, Wuen Yew Teoh, Sekaran Muniandy, Hashim YaakobCulture dependent and culture independent methods have shown that about 600 species of bacteria inhabit the human oral cavity. While some oral microorganisms have a direct link to dental caries, periodontal disease and halitosis, opportunistic pathogens may be responsible for systemic diseases such as bacterial endocarditis, aspiration pneumonia, osteomyelitis in children, preterm low birth weight, coronary heart disease and cerebral … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,990 accessesView PDFCite
