Antimicrobial Sensitivity Profile of Eye Infection in Dogs

Detection of Echinococcus granulosus infection in dogs

Cystic Echinococcosis is an important zoonosis in the sheep rising areas of Iran. To develop a simple and reliable diagnostic method for Echinococcus infection in definitive hosts, E. granulosus polyoclonal antibodies (PolyAbs) were prepared from adult worm in rabbit. A selected PoAb was used for coproantigen detection in faecal samples obtained from animals naturally infected with Echinococcus...

A Nine-Year Follow-Up of Antimicrobial Resistance Profile in Children with Urinary Tract Infection in Northern Iran

Background and Objective: Urinary tract infection (UTI) is one of the most common infections in children. Arbitrary use of antibiotics has increased the resistant strains and transmits these resistant factors to other pathogens. Therefore, this study was designed to follow the resistance trend in 9-years in children with urinary tract infections referred to the Amirkola Children's hospital (Nor...

Brucella melitensis Infection in Sheep-dogs in Iran

Cytokine Profile of Leishmania Infantum Fucose-Mannose Ligand in Vaccinated Dogs in the Northwest of Iran

Background: Canine visceral leishmaniasis (CVL) caused by Leishmania infantum is endemic in the northwest and south of Iran. An appropriate vaccine can help to prevent and control visceral leishmaniasis in both humans and animals. Few studies have confirmed that the fucose-mannose ligand (FML) antigen of Leishmania donovani produced protective immunity in dogs against CVL. Objective: To evaluat...

Antimicrobial Resistance Profile of Pseudomonas Aeruginosa Strains

Abstract Background and Objectives: Pseudomonas aeruginosa is the most common organism, which is separated from the burn infections.  Due to increased antibiotic resistance, there are many problems to deal with the infections caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa. This study aimed to determine the resistance to antibiotics against clinical isolates of Pseudomonas using phenotype me...
