Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleAnalysis of the Utility of MPT64, Drug Susceptibility Testing and Tuberculosis/Nontuberculous Mycobacteria Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction for Tuberculosis Diagnosis and Efficiency Compared with Traditional CultureHo Keun Choi, Ga Yeon Kim, Tae Soung Kim, Jae Kyung KimDefining the molecular mechanisms underlying the dormant state of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) is essential for developing more effective treatments for tuberculosis (TB) infection. We investigated the positivity and resistance rates of TB tests on 6,174 samples referred to a single hospital. Of these, 342 cases (5.5%) were confirmed as positive by acid-fast bacilli staining, 243 cases (71.1%) were detected as … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 20, Issue 4 · 5 Dec 2024 · 4,206 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsIn 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 abstractRandom Forest and Extreme Gradient Boosting with Bayesian Hyperparameter Optimization for Landslide Susceptibility Mapping in Penang Island, MalaysiaDorothy Anak Martin Atok, Soo See Chai, Kok Luong Goh et al.Landslide susceptibility models often face challenges of overfitting and overestimation. This research focuses on improving the predictive capabilities of the Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) and Random Forest (RF) algorithms by applying Bayesian Hyperparameter Optimization (BayesOpt). Penang Island, a region in Malaysia prone to frequent landslides, was chosen as the study area. Ten Landslide Conditioning Factors (LCFs), including elevation, slope angle, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 10 · 16 Dec 2025 · 3,103 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparison of Diagnostic Tests for Fosfomycin Resistance Detection in Clinically Significant EnterobacteralesSantoshi Maruti Naik, Biranthabail Dhanashree, Himani KotianMultidrug resistance in Enterobacterales has triggered interest in old antibiotics like fosfomycin. Various methods to determine fosfomycin resistance are time-consuming and yield unpredictable results. Hence, the study was undertaken to compare the rapid fosfomycin NP test with the recommended agar dilution test and few other tests. In this cross-sectional, time-bound, prospective study, Enterobacterales (N = 110) were tested for their … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 3 · 21 Nov 2025 · 2,113 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIsolation Rate and Species Distribution of Non-Tuberculous Mycobacteria From 2014-2021Tae Soung Kim, Ga Yeon Kim, Young Ki Lee, Jae Kyung KimIn Korea, the incidence of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infections has decreased; however, the incidence of lung diseases attributed to Non-Tuberculous Mycobacteria (NTM) is increasing. This study aimed to elucidate the isolation rate and distribution of NTM recently isolated at a Korean test center. Respiratory samples for acid-fast bacilli culture collected between January 2014 and December 2021 at a test center in … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 19, Issue 4 · 13 Nov 2023 · 4,983 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssociation Between Cancer Screening Results Using Single Nucleotide Polymorphism and Cancer Incidence Rate in Korean WomenKyung Bae Lee, Jae Kyung KimIn this study, we investigated the usefulness of Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) testing in assessing cancer susceptibility in women by evaluating correlations between SNP testing results and cancer incidence rates. SNP testing was conducted on blood samples of women who underwent health examinations commissioned by medical institutions in the Republic of Korea in 2017 using real-time polymerase chain reaction with … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 19, Issue 3 · 25 Sep 2023 · 4,956 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThiosemicarbazide Induces Partial Myoclonic, Generalized Tonic-Clonic and Status Epilepticus Seizures Depending on the Dose in the RatAnwar Satef, Sofia El Amoury, Soumaya El Ganouni et al.The present study aimed to characterize the seizures produced by injections of Thiosemicarbazide (TSC), a glutamic acid decarboxylase inhibitor. It aimed also to evaluate the anticonvulsant effect of the antiseizure medications Phenobarbital (PHB), Valproate (VPA), and Phenytoin (PNT) and of the antipsychotics Chlorpromazine (CPZ) and Haloperidol (HAL) as well as the antidepressant SSRI, Fluoxetine (FXT). Male Wistar rats received TSC … …Neuroscience International, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 4 Mar 2023 · 10,301 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 abstractAntimicrobial Susceptibility of Bovine Subclinical Mastitis and During Milk Separation Isolates and the Accompanying Hygienic PracticesSultan Farag Nagati, Safaa Khamis HassanMilk is considered one of the most perfect foods for humans and milk contains many nutrients. Subclinical mastitis has been counted as a great problem for dairy manufacture. The disease causes severe economic losses due to lower milk production, treatment costs and increased labor and milk retained for human consumption after treatment and premature culling. A cross-sectional study was conducted … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 2 · 7 Apr 2021 · 6,506 accessesView PDFCite
