Calcaneus osteomyelitis secondary to Guthrie test: case report.
Calcaneus osteomyelitis is a rare infection in newborns. Invasive procedures, prematurity and low birth wight are some causative factors. The clinical signs may be mild. We report a neonate with calcaneous osteomyelitis which was secondary to a Guthrie test sample. She was admitted to hospital with swelling, redness and increased temperature on her heel. Superficial tissue ultrasound showed flu...
متن کاملBacterial diversity in the active stage of a bioremediation system for mineral oil hydrocarbon-contaminated soils.
Soils contaminated with mineral oil hydrocarbons are often cleaned in off-site bioremediation systems. In order to find out which bacteria are active during the degradation phase in such systems, the diversity of the active microflora in a degrading soil remediation system was investigated by small-subunit (SSU) rRNA analysis. Two sequential RNA extracts from one soil sample were generated by a...
متن کاملInfluence of Copper Particles on Breakdown Voltage and Frequency-Dependent Dielectric Property of Vegetable Insulating Oil
The insulating performance of oil is vulnerable to particles especially the conductive particles. This paper investigated the influence of copper particles of micrometer size on the breakdown strength and frequency-dependent properties of vegetable oil. The AC breakdown voltage of contaminated vegetable oil with copper particles of different numbers (ranging from 103 to 106) was measured. The f...
متن کاملBreast abscess due to Listeria sp: report of a rare case
Background Listeria sp. are facultative intracellular bacterial pathogens, which pose a potential public health problem related to consumption of contaminated food. Human listeriosis is clinically classified as perinatal listeriosis, neonatal listeriosis and adult listeriosis. Human infections caused by Listeria sp. present typically as meningitis. Other infections attributed to Listeria sp. in...
متن کاملComparative Evaluation of Breakdown Strength of Natural Esters and Mineral Oil
This paper presents results of experimental investigations on natural esters dielectric and coolant fluids regarding the breakdown strength. The breakdown voltage (BDV) for small and medium oil gaps (from 2 mm up to 40 mm) under AC and lightning impulse (LI), uniform and non-uniform electrical field is measured. Experiments involve new, aged and with mineral oil contaminated natural esters. The...
