Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMaterno-Foetal Transmission of Murine Toxoplasmosis after Oral InfectionJamal Hafid, Bahrie Bellete, Pierre Flori et al.The effect of maternofoetal transmission of T. gondii as measured by the mortality rate in the mother, the foetus and the neonate were studied in the mouse model OF1. Ninety six female mice divided into two groups of 48 were infected with the Prugniaud strain before or after mating. When the time of mating was near the day of infection … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 21 Mar 2005 · 7,210 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDiversity and Resistance of Bacteria Isolated from a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) Surfaces and the Hands of Nurses in Jeddah-Saudi ArabiaRoqaiah M. Al-Jabri, Ahmed M. Al-Hejin, Rukaia Gashgari et al.Healthcare-Associated Infections (HAIs) are a serious problem for neonates when admitted to NICUs. The healthcare environment and healthcare workers' hands may be a source of transmission. Therefore, there is a need to find microbial sources and identify the contaminants to improve disinfection protocols to reduce HAIs. Out of the 169 samples collected on nutrient agar media from NICUs of a … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 5 Aug 2022 · 5,828 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAntifungal Activity of Jatropha Curcas Linn on Candida Albicans and Candida Tropicalis Associated with Neonatal and Infantile Infections in Yola, NigeriaJames Hamuel Doughari, Martha AbrahamOne hundred and eighty (180) stool samples collected of neonates and infants from three selected health facilities in Yola, Adamawa State Nigeria. The samples were subjected to both microscopic, biochemical test and cultural identification. Bromocresol green agar and Germ tube test was used to identify Candida species. Culture of the stool samples on SDA yielded 32 yeast cells with Candida … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 7 Sep 2021 · 7,533 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Dynamic of Afamin and Alpha-Fetoprotein Expression during Rat Liver DevelopmentIndriyani, Isabella Kurnia Liem, Puspita Eka Wuyung et al.Liver has a high level of Alpha-fetoprotein which is assumed to be important for mammalian development. However, Alpha-fetoprotein knockout studies in mice suggested that despite the absence of Alpha-fetoprotein, mice developed normally; the only abnormality observed was infertility in female mice. There are indications that Afamin, a protein that has a gene sequence located on the same chromosome as Alpha-fetoprotein, … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 5 Feb 2021 · 6,766 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMonte Carlos Simulation Approach to Population Dynamics of Sickle Cell AnaemiaOlumuyiwa O. Akanbi, Sunday O. Edeki, Olumuyiwa A. AgboladeSickle Cell Anaemia (SCA) is a serious inherited blood disorder where the red blood cells, which carry oxygen around the body develop abnormally. The mathematical dynamics of the disease remain poorly understood, as such this paper investigates the mathematical inheritance pattern of the disease by the application of Monte Carlos simulation technique which is a complementary approach to physical simulation … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 3 · 15 Mar 2017 · 7,508 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractASSOCIATION OF APGAR SCORE WITH DELIVERY MODE IN THE NON DISTRESS NEWBORNSKaramatollah Rahmanian, Abdolreza Sotoodeh Jahromi, Vajihe Rahmanian et al.The Apgar score is the most commonly used measure of newborn infant well-being. Infants of women with caesarean section were at increased risk of low Apgar score and/or perinatal death. The aim of study was to determine the impact of the cesarean section on Apgare score. This is a case-control study, which compared 100 Elective Cesarean Section (ECS) cases, with … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 28 Dec 2013 · 7,780 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Study of Antibacterial Susceptibility Patterns of the Bacteria Isolated from Patients' Blood Samples over Two PeriodsAziz Japoni, Mehdi Kalani, Abdolvahab Alborzi et al.Problem statement: Due to continuous changes in the frequencies and antibacterial susceptibility patterns of nosocomial pathogens, periodical surveillance of these fluctuations could help the clinicians to treat hospitalized patients more efficiently whenever empirical therapies need to be considered. This study was conducted to compare the prevalence of the bacteria recovered from bloodstream samples by Bactec 9240, over the two periods … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 27 Apr 2011 · 8,158 accessesView PDFCite

Saleem, Samir T. Abdullah et al.Problem statement: Breast milk contain protective factors as soluble CD14, L-Fucose and Sialic acid which increase the innate immunity and level of intelligence, decrease the incidence of gastroenteritis, chest and other systemic diseases in newly born infants. In the present study the role of soluble CD14, L-Fucose and Sialic acid, in increasing the immunity in breastfed infants were studied to … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 27 Apr 2011 · 10,188 accessesView PDFCite
