Atypical reactions of Escherichia coli on eosin methylene blue agar.
Evidence is presented that atypical reactions of Escherichia coli on eosin methylene blue agar are due to variations in pH in localized areas of the medium.

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a method that combines the use of nontoxic components, namely photosensitizer, light and oxygen to cause localised oxidative photo-induced damage. The aim of this study was to contribute to PDT development by studying an alternative light sources using red light-emitting diode (LED) light and evaluated its effect on the photodynamic activity of methylene blue (MB) ...

In this study, effect of different parameters, viz. concentration of photosensitizer (PS), pH of the bacterial cell suspension and initial cell count, on photo-inactivation of Escherichia coli and Enterococcus hirae bacteria using methylene blue (MB) and sodium anthraquinone-2-sulphonate (SAQS) was investigated employing the statistically valid full factorial design of experiments. The inactiva...

Background: Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) are group of E. coli causing bloody diarrhea. The goal of this survey was to determine the prevalence of multidrug resistant shiga toxin-producing E. coli in cattle meat and its contact surfaces. Methods: Swab samples (n=120) were randomly collected from meat and contact surface of butchery shops in Sharkia province, Egypt. Prevalence o...
full textSusceptibility of Candida albicans to photodynamic therapy using methylene blue and toluidine blue as photosensitizing dyes.
The increased resistance of Candida albicans to antibiotic therapy indicates the need for alternative treatments for oral candidiasis. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has been researched as an alternative tool to inactivate pathogenic microorganisms. It uses a combination of a photosensitizer and a visible light source. This study evaluated the susceptibility of C. albicans to PDT and compared the e...
