Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInfluence of Probiotics on Coccidia, H. Contortus and Markers of Infection in GoatsKwaku Barima Gyenai, Mulumebet Worku, Mehrdad Tajkarimi, Salam IbrahimImmunostimulants can induce nonspecific resistance against parasites. The use of probiotics to control development of animal gastrointestinal parasites could help reduce the risks of infestation. In this study, we investigated the effects of probiotics administration on gastrointestinal parasites coccidia, H. contortus and markers of infection. A cocktail of probiotics mix including Bifidobacterium longum, Bifidobacterium breve, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus reuteri and … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 29 Jul 2016 · 9,034 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIsolation and Identification of Staphylococcus epidermidis S14 Screening Extracellular Antimicrobial MetabolitesJie Zhang, Han Jiang, Jiaxin Jiang, Guangrong HuangTotal 24 isolates with antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, Bacillus cereus and Shigella castellani, out of 259 strains, were isolated from the internal of seven marine fishes. The extracellular metabolites of strain S14, isolated from the internal of shark, showed stronger inhibition against the four tested bacteria, including G- and G+ bacteria. Based on the 16S rDNA the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 19 Mar 2016 · 7,573 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGenomic Signature of Respiratory Microbes on Human Scalp EpitheliaBhola Nath Paul, Vani Mishra, Jasmeet Kaur Chhabra, Divyani PaulDespite overlap between habitats occupied by diverse Airborne Respiratory Microbes (ARM), the airway epithelium is known for respiratory microbe infections, human scalp epithelium is undocumented. Analogous to airways epithelium, the scalp epithelium is vulnerable to infection by dormant variants of sensitive microbes that underlie many chronic and relapsing diseases, difficult to eradicate by conventional antibiotics and challenged our ability to … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 11 Sep 2015 · 7,079 accessesView PDF Cite

EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractAMYOTROPHIC LATERAL SCLEROSIS: HOW TO UNDERSTAND SUCH DIVERSE AND SO ENTANGLED PHYSIOPATHOLOGY?Carlos Henrique Melo Reis, Marco Orsini, Marco Antônio Araujo Leite et al.When in 1865, JeanMartin Charcotreported patients with progressive muscular atrophysuperimposedwith spasticity of inexorable evolution as result of combinedlesions of the anterior horn and lateral column of the spinal cord, hecertainly inaugurated an attempt on the comprehension of one of the mostcomplexes neurological clinical conditions, which until today persists withimmense voids on their comprehension, regardless of the enormous advancesachieved. Astime went … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 16 Feb 2015 · 7,151 accessesView PDF Cite

EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractRe-Paving the Road Built by Chemistry: A Challenge to Biochemistry and BiotechnologyAlberto A. IglesiasBiochemistry’s birth can be placed at the end of the nineteenth century, when Eduard Buchner made a clever interpretation of experimental observations on the generation of gas bubbles after addition (the original purpose was preservation) of sucrose to a yeast crude extract (Lagerkvist, 2005). Intelligently, Buchner concluded that the disaccharide had been fermented by broken cells’ suspension to produce CO2, … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 26 Jan 2015 · 7,468 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMOLECULAR CHARACTERIZATION ON THE BASIS OF HA, NA AND M GENE REVEALED CHANGES IN CRITICAL AMINO ACID POSITIONS OF INFLUENZA A (H3N2) VIRUS CIRCULATING IN INDIA DURING 2011-2013Sachin Kumar, Shashi Khare, Bano Saidullah et al.Influenza a (H1N1) virus is responsible for acute respiratory infection in human, which occasionally causes epidemic and rarely a pandemic. Full length DNA sequencing of HA, NA and M gene of H3N2 virus from year 2011-2013 was performed for determination of the circulating strains in India along with monitoring status of various mutations associated with drug resistance and virulence. Genetic … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 18 Oct 2014 · 6,842 accessesView PDF Cite

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 · 7,828 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUse of Enterobacterial Repetitive Intergenic Consensus PCR in Detecting Target(s) of Hapalindole-T, From a Cyanobacterium, in Escherichia Coli: In Silico ValidationManoj K. Tripathi, Maheep Kumar, Vinay K. Singh et al.Problem statement: Identification of newer biomolecule as well as targets are a rising concern because of increasing drug resistance in bacteria. We have isolated a broad spectrum antibiotic biomolecule Hapalindole-T from a cyanobacterium, Fisherella sp. growing on local Azadirachta indica tree bark. A model bacterium E. coli was screened spontaneously for Hap-T resistance. These resistant strains of E. coli were … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 3 Mar 2012 · 13,780 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetection of Listeria monocytogenes in Ready-to-Eat Meat ProductsAsma M.M.A. Abdelgadir, Kunwar K. Srivastava, P. Gopal ReddyProblem statement: The objective of this study was to develop a rapid and sensitive method for the detection of Listeria monocytogenes and to screen large number of ready-to-eat (RTE) meat samples. Approach: A total of 250 fresh RTE meat samples of different varieties (chicken, turkey, beef, pork and cold cuts) were purchased from local grocery stores. Results: From the 250 … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 30 Jan 2012 · 7,427 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGenotoxic Profile of Motor Garage WorkersNandan M. Shastri, Hemlata PantProblem statement: One way to study the effects on an exposed population is to conduct monitoring studies, using relevant biological parameters with a short term manifestation, such as cytogenetic analysis express the damages to the DNA or to the chromosomes resulting from exposure can be identified.
