The spread of Shigella dysenteriae type I in Africa.
INTRODUCTION Since Shiga's bacilli were discovered 100 years ago, Shigella dysenteriae type I (SD 1) has been implicated in large-scale epidemics world-wide with many thousands of deaths. Its infectivity and virulence, protean manifestations and propensity to develop multi-drug resistance, has meant that as a cause of disease it has not been conquered despite all advances. Epidemic Shigella has...
متن کاملImmunogenicity of a New Recombinant IpaC from Shigella dysenteriae Type I in Guinea Pig as a Vaccine Candidate
Background: Recombinant vaccine technology is one of the most developed means in controlling infectious diseases. However, an effective vaccine against Shigella is still missing. Objective: To evaluate recombinant IpaC protein of Shigella as a vaccine candidate. Methods: In this study we cloned IpaC gene into an expression vector in prokaryotic system. The protein expression was evaluated by SD...
متن کاملDetermining the antibacterial effect of ZnO nanoparticle against the pathogenic bacterium, Shigella dysenteriae (type 1)
The nanomaterials have important application in different field of science such as biology and pharmacology, which draws the attention of biologists towards this field of study more than before. As the worldwide mortality rate is high due to the pathogens and especially because of the bacteria associated dysenteriae and the antibacterial effect of metal nanoparticles is well known from centurie...

متن کاملdetection of Shigella dysenteriae type 1 in Milk by Pcr
Shigellosis is the severest form of bacillary dysentery, a disease limited to humans and certain other primates. Conventional microbiological techniques used for the isolation and biochemical identification of microbes are timeconsuming as well as labour intensive. Due to the fastidious nature of Shigella and the lengthy culture time, a rapid and sensitive system for the detection of bacteria i...
