Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBacterial Profile and Antimicrobial Resistance to Commonly Used Antimicrobials in Intra-Abdominal Infections in Two Teaching HospitalsGholamreza Sepehri, Hamid Zeinali Nejad, Ehsan Sepehri, Saeideh RazbanProblem statement: Intra-abdominal infections are associated with significant morbidity and mortality. The resulting infection is typically polymicrobial and comprised of both aerobic and anaerobic microbes, which need systemic antimicrobial therapy. Since the bacteriology and antimicrobial susceptibility of postoperative intra abdominal infections were not determined in Iran, so this study was performed to evaluate the antimicrobial susceptibility patterns among aerobic bacteria … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2010 · 7,271 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Review: Microbiological, Physicochemical and Health Impact of High Level of Biogenic Amines in Fish SauceMuhammad Zukhrufuz Zaman, A. S. Abdulamir, Fatimah Abu Bakar et al.Problem statement: Biogenic amines are basic nitrogenous compounds present in a wide variety of foods and beverages. Their formations were mainly due to the amino acids decarboxylase activity of certain microorganisms. Excessive intake of biogenic amines could induce many undesirable physiological effects determined by their psychoactive and vasoactive action. Fish sauce which is considered as a good source of dietary … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2009 · 8,920 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMicrobial Response to the Application of Amendments in a Contaminated Soil with Trace ElementsA. Branzini, M. S. Zubillaga, M. M. ZubillagaProblem Statement: The anthropogenic activities can cause adverse effects in soils, increasing in some situations trace elements contents, impacting negatively both the microbial biomass and activity. Among the practices used for the recovery of soil quality we can find the application of organic amendments or the product of their composting. These can adsorb trace elements decreasing their availability and increasing … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,180 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 · 7,992 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of the Effect of Various Biopesticides on the useful Arachno Entomofauna of the Apple Orchard in the Southeast of KazakhstanI. I. Temreshev, B. K. Kopzhasarov, Z. B. Beknazarova et al.Currently, Kazakhstan is actively researching the greening of the protection of apple orchards from lepidopteran pests. In this regard, biological preparations of various origins were tested. The aim was to study their impact on useful non-target arachno entomofauna (entomophagous insects and pollinators). During the research, both classical methods used in entomology and plant protection, and original modifications were used. In … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 23, Issue 1 · 27 Dec 2022 · 5,847 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTetracycline Resistance Profile in Darwin Finches in the Galapagos IslandsMaría Inés Baquero, Marylin Cruz, Viviana Duque et al.Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR), which is the ability of microorganisms to withstand attack by antimicrobial drugs, has a worldwide impact. Thus, it is important to identify resistance mechanisms circulating in the environment. Among antimicrobials widely used in human and veterinary health, tetracycline is ideal due to its safety and has been categorized by the WHO as a critically important antimicrobial. Based … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 4 · 19 Dec 2022 · 5,794 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Synopsis of Environmental Heavy Metal PollutionAnyiam N. Donald, Pene B. Raphael et al.Heavy metal pollution continues to be a serious problem in the environment due to uncontrolled pesticide use, mining, foundry operations, smelting, fossil fuel burning and sewage sludge dumping. Mercury, lead, chromium, cadmium, copper and other heavy metals are non-biodegradable and remain in the environment in regions where human activity is prevalent. Heavy metal contamination is a serious hazard to all … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 5 · 7 Dec 2022 · 8,328 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIsolation and Characterization of Phosphate Solubilizing Activity of Endophytic Fungi from Zingiberaceous SpeciesErman Munir, Yurnaliza, Anisa Lutfia, Adrian HartantoPhosphorus (P), which is one of the less available soil macronutrients, is important for plant growth and metabolism. A promising strategy to increase the P uptake by plants is by introducing Phosphate-Solubilizing Microorganisms (PSM) into the P-deficient regions, to convert P into soluble forms through organic acids secreted by the PSMs. The aim of this study was to characterize the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 1 · 27 Mar 2022 · 6,652 accessesView PDFCite
