Antimicrobial characteristics of some herbal Oils on Pseudomonas aeruginosa with special reference to their chemical compositions

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an important opportunistic pathogen causing widespread infections by numerous virulence factors. Increasing resistance to antibiotics makes the Pseudomonas infections treatment further difficult. The purpose of this study was to evaluate antimicrobial characteristics of essential oils from Matricaria chamomilla, Artemisia persica, Zataria multiflora, Myrtus communis, R...

Some Questions Relating to the Virulence of Micro-organisms with Particular Reference to Their Immunizing Powers

The virulent cholera spirillum possesses a greater number of bacteriolytic and agglutinable haptophore groups, or these groups are endowed with a greater avidity for uni- and amboceptors than the avirulent. The number or the avidity of the bacteriolytic receptors possessed by a bacterium is directly proportional to its virulence. However, the agglutinable receptors do not follow this law, i.e.,...

Constrictive pericarditis with particular reference to etiology.

Phagocytosis, with particular reference to encapsulated bacteria.

The phagocytic cells of the mammalian host provide a remarkable defense against a wide variety of bacteria, fungi, and protozoa. Whether they play a protective role in infections caused by viruses and rickettsiae is at present a matter of conjecture. The discovery of "pinocytosis" (Gey, 1954), however, and recent observations relating to bacterial endotoxins (Berthrong and Cluff, 1953; Braude e...
