Alpha activity in Indian thermal springs
ABSTRACT Background: and soils with which it comes in contact. There is dual exposure from radon in water i.e. due toinhalation of the radon released from the water into the ambient air and through ingestion whenwater is used for drinking. As radon contaminated water adversely affects the health, it istherefore fundamental from health and hygiene point of view to measure radium concentrationand...
متن کاملFatal Meningoencephalitis in Child and Isolation of Naegleria fowleri from Hot Springs in Costa Rica
ZIKV isolated in French Polynesia in 2013 (10). Serum specimens from both patients were cultured on Vero cells, and supernatants were evaluated by RT-PCR. Each specimen was positive only for DENV, which was probably caused by low viral loads for ZIKV. We report co-infection of 2 patients with DENV and ZIKV; each patient was infected with a different DENV serotype. No synergistic effects of the ...
متن کاملSucker-like structures on the pathogenic amoeba Naegleria fowleri.
Using scanning electron microscopy, we observed sucker-like structures on amoebae of 13 human isolates of Naegleria fowleri. The number of suckers per amoeba seemed to vary according to the virulence of the strain. We propose the term amoebastome to describe this unique sucker-like structure of N. fowleri.
متن کاملMigration patterns of pathogenic and nonpathogenic Naegleria spp.
Four species of Naegleria were tested for their ability to migrate under agarose. Pathogenic N. fowleri strains exhibited rapid locomotion at 37 degrees C. Environmental isolates of N. fowleri moved faster than clinical isolates which had been kept in axenic culture for longer periods, and this result was confirmed by using the 84-2205-7 strain kept in axenic culture for 1 or 5 months. Nonpatho...
متن کاملIn vitro effect of antifungal drugs on pathogenic Naegleria spp.
An ameba of the genus Naegleria causing fatal meningoencephalitis in human subjects was investigated for its sensitivity to antifungal drugs: amphotericin B, ketoconazole, fluconazole and itraconazole. The efficacy of these antifungal drugs for pathogenic Naegleria spp was investigated in three strains isolated from patients who had died of primary amebic meningoencephalitis infection at Sirira...
