Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBovine Viral Diarrhea-an Emerging Disease in Camelids a ReviewU. WerneryBovine Viral Diarrhea (BVD) is an emerging disease in both New World Camelids (NWCs) and Old World Camelids (OWCs). The virus has been isolated from NWCs particularly in alpacas and dromedaries, but there are no reports of BVD in Bactrians. BVD is an important infectious disease. Both sub-genotypes 1a, 1b and genotype 2 have been isolated from NWCs but the … …Current Research in Virology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 30 Aug 2012 · 12,849 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDiphenylhydantoin Promotes Proliferation in The Subventricular Zone and Dentate GyrusAlma Y. Galvez-Contreras, Rocio E. Gonzalez-Castaneda, Sonia Luquin et al.Problem statement: Diphenylhydantoin (phenytoin) is an antiepileptic drug that generates hyperplasia in some tissue by stimulating Epidermal Growth Factor (EGFR) and Platelet-Derived Growth Factor beta (PDGFR-β) receptors and by increasing serum levels of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF, FGF2 or FGF-β). Neural stem cells in the adult brain have been isolated from three regions: the Subventricular Zone (SVZ) lining the … …Neuroscience International, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 6 Mar 2012 · 9,135 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStrains of Klebsiella Pneumoniae from Intensive Care Unit Producing CTX-M-15 Extended Spectrum Beta LactamasesI.R. Iroha, A.E. Oji, A.E. Nwakaeze et al.Problem statement: Resistance to third generation cephalosporins due to acquisition and expression of Extended Spectrum β-Lactamase (ESBL) among Gram-negative bacteria is on the increase. Infections involving extended spectrum beta lactamase bacteria are associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Therefore, infections due to ESBL isolates continue to pose a serious challenge to infection management worldwide. Since screening for ESBL is not … …Current Research in Microbiology, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 6 Mar 2012 · 7,826 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMulberry Fruit Mitigates Alcohol Neurotoxicity and Memory Impairment Induced by Chronic Alcohol IntakeJintanaporn Wattanathorn, Nattaporn Phunchago, Supaporn Muchimapura et al.Problem statement: To date, the therapeutic strategy efficacy against memory impairment induced by alcohol intoxication is still limited. The novel therapeutic strategy which is easy to approach, less toxic and less cost is required. Based on the role of oxidative stress in memory impairment induced by alcohol, the neuroprotective effect of substance possessing antioxidant has gained much attention. Therefore, we … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 8 Feb 2012 · 9,328 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSlow Fungal Hydrolysis of Complex Sugar is Responsible for the Use of Sugar as Vehicle for Antifungal DrugsNedosa Ikenna Valentine, Utoh-Nedosa Uchechukwu Anastasia, Dan Danjuma et al.Problem statement: Aspergillus niger strain (UUF 9202) significantly reduced the dormancy period and boosted aggregate germination time in seeds of Tetrapleura tetraptera by 42% in 32 days and produced a net reduction in mean germination time of the seeds to 12 days. A structure-fungitoxicity relationship study of a series of isoflavonoids against Aspergillus niger and Cladosporium cucumerinum showed that a … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 2 Nov 2011 · 7,665 accessesView PDFCite
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 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 abstractAAV-Based Targeting Gene TherapyWenfang Shi, Mingxia Yu, Qijun QianSince the first parvovirus serotype AAV2 was isolated from human and used as a vector for gene therapy application, there have been significant progresses in AAV vector development. AAV vectors have been extensively investigated in gene therapy for a broad application. AAV vectors have been considered as the first choice of vector due to efficient infectivity, stable expression and nonpathogenicity. … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,960 accessesView PDFCite
