Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUTILITY OF A COMBINATION ANTIBIOGRAM FOR TREATING PSEUDOMONAS AERUGINOSALindsay Thurman, Nathan Fewel, Michael Rose, Eileen StockEmpiric combination antibiotic therapy is often used to treat severe P. aeruginosa infections. Combination antibiograms have been employed to assist clinicians in selecting the most effective two-drug antibiotic regimens. The objectives of this study were to develop a combination antibiogram in order to compare beta-lactam monotherapy versus dual-therapy with a fluoroquinolone or aminoglycoside, identify optimal combination regimens, describe the differences … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 16 Jun 2014 · 8,973 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFormulation and Evaluation of Ficus benghalensis and Ficus racemosa Aquoues ExtractsDivya Kiran, Upendra Kumar, Krishna Murti, Manish KaushikWe intended to develop a desired ointment for treatment of wound. Main objective of this study was to formulate the ointment with different ointment bases having good consistency, better diffusion and antiseptic properties. To assess the efficacy of uniformity, viscosity, diffusivity, rheology, stability, spreadability, permeability and other physical characteristics were evaluated. Two Formulations, formulation A (Aq. extract of Ficus racemosa) … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 21 Sep 2013 · 7,409 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPrevalence of Heterogeneous Glycopeptide Intermediate Resistance in Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureusManu Chaudhary, Anurag PayasiMultidrug resistant Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA) is a major cause of nosocomial and community acquired infections and is on the rise. The aim of this investigation was to explore the prevalence of MRSA and heterogeneous Glycopeptide Intermediate Staphylococcus Aureus (hGISA) in various clinical samples, to investigate the various antibiotic resistant determinant genes among these strains collected from north and west … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 4 Sep 2013 · 7,203 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of Salivary Gland Extract of Lucillia Sericata Maggots on the Human Dermal Fibroblasts ProliferationSimona Polakovicova, Stefan Polak, Marcela Kuniakova et al.Problem statement: The aim of study was to investigate the effect of Salivary Gland Extract (SGE) of Lucillia sericata maggots on Human Neonatal Fibroblasts (B-HNF-1) proliferation and migration within collagen/hyaluronan membrane. Chronic, non-healing wounds are major health care problem worldwide. Nowadays, Maggot Debridement Therapy (MDT) has attracted much attention due to its successfull application in a treatment of chronic wounds … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 19 Jan 2012 · 7,644 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSepticemia: The Principal Killer of Burns PatientsB. R. Sharma, Virendar Pal Singh, Sumedha Bangar, Neha GuptaBurn injury is a major problem in many areas of the world and it has been estimated that 75% of all deaths following burns are related to infection. Burns impair the skin’s normal barrier function thus allowing microbial colonization of the burn wounds and even with the use of topical antimicrobial agents, contamination is almost unavoidable. It is therefore essential … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,024 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Tactile Force Probe for Tissue Stiffness ClassificationBehafarid Darvish, Siamak Najarian, Elham Shirzad, Roozbeh KhodambashiIn this study, we have proposed a new type of tactile sensor that is capable of detecting the stiffness of soft objects. The sensor consists of a brass cylinder with an axial bore. An iron core can easily move inside the bore. Three peripheral bobbins were machined in the cylinder around which three coils have been wound. One of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,290 accessesView PDFCite

Approach: Using 8 adults’ castrated horses having 350-550 Kgbw with 4-6 years of age. The left hind limb and right fore-limb Superficial Digital Flexor Tendon (SDFT) were splitted longitudinally at mid metatarsal and metacarpal … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,373 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Tactile Sensor for Detection of Skin Surface Morphology and its Application in Telemedicine SystemsRoozbeh Khodambashi, Siamak Najarian, Ali Tavakoli Golpaygani et al.We proposed a new type of tactile sensor that is capable of determining the surface morphology of skin lesions. The sensor consists of a brass cylinder with an axial bore. Three peripheral bobbins were machined in the cylinder around which three coils have been wound. An iron core can easily move inside the bore. One of the coils acts as … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,263 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCorrelation Between MMP-3, TIMP-3 Expression and Neuronal Apoptosis After Ischemia -Reperfusion Injury in RatesZi Xiaohong, Mutasem Abuhamed, Yuan Yi et al.Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) play a central role in many biological processes, such as embryogenesis, normal tissue remodeling, wound healing, and angiogenesis. How MMP3, TIMP3 expression and neuronal apoptosis (Fas, Fas-L and Bcl) may provide detrimental or beneficial actions during the injury and repair processes after cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury in rates was studied. Adult rats underwent middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Nov 2007 · 7,182 accessesView PDFCite
