[ 1 ] - Molecular identification and phylogenic analysis of Bartonella henselae isolated from Iranian cats based on gltA gene
One of the most important species of the Bartonella genus is B. henselae that causes a zoonotic infection, cat scratch disease (CSD). The main source of the bacteria is cat and the carrier is Ctenocephalides felis flea. One hundred and forty nail and saliva samples were collected from 70 domestic cats. Positive samples for B. henselae were characterized by po...
[ 2 ] - Phylogenetic analysis of HSP70 gene of Aspergillus fumigatus reveals conservation intra-species and divergence inter-species
Aspergillus fumigatus is a saprophyte fungus, widely spread in a variety of ecologicalniches and the most prevalent aspergilli responsible for human and animal invasiveaspergillosis. The first step to develop novel and efficient therapies is the identificationand understanding of the key tolerance and virulence factors of pathogens. The mainfocus of the present study is to perform the similarit...
[ 3 ] - Role of denture-wearing on colonization and antifungal resistance of oral Candida albicans isolates in healthy people
The primary focus of the present study was to evaluate the occurrence of Candida albicans isolatesin the oral cavity and its probable correlation with dental implant applications and prosthesis. Wecollected oral swabs from patients who had attended private dentistry clinics, followed by stringentand controlled antifungal susceptibility testing and calculation of colony forming units (CFUs).Amph...
