In 2002 an investigation of sudden death in a goat in Wabessa village in the Dessie Zuria district of Ethiopia was undertaken using fresh blood brought to the Kombolcha Regional Veterinary Laboratory. The sample was examined using standard bacteriological techniques and animal pathogenicity tests were also performed. The laboratory investigation revealed Bacillus anthracis as the cause of sudde...

Background: Urban water sources of Khamis Mushait Governorate, southwestern Saudi Arabia, were studied to assess their bacteriological characteristics and suitability for potable purposes. A cross-sectional epidemiological method was adopted to investigate the four main urban water sources (i.e. bottled, desalinated, surface, and well water). These were sampled and examined between February and...

In 28 adult severe periodontitis patients who did not respond to conventional periodontal therapy, full mouth clinical parameters including probing pocket depth, relative attachment level, bleeding on probing and suppuration after probing, visible plaque index and modified gingival index were recorded at the baseline and 14 months after treatment. Based on clinical and bacteriological diagnosis...

To preserve the natural climate regime in Tskhaltubo Cave Systems it is necessary to carry out permanent seasonal meteorological observations on climatic parameters underground area. Which will ensure optimum operation of cave system. By means mentioned conditions be conservation and this facility.

Methods Retrospective analysis on hospital stays’ database in the pediatric unit at Hopital Principal de Dakar between September and November 2010. Patients with a positive bacteriological test were selected. Probable cases of HCAI were included on clinical and bacteriological data (presence of multiresistant bacteria). Cases were matched to control patients (with no infection) by sex, age and ...

Methods: This is prospective study conducted during four years period, in a group of 60 children aged from 6 months to 18 years. All patients included in this study underwent bronchoscopy when they fulfilled criteria of routine clinical protocol, in order to set correct diagnosis of lower respiratory tract disease. Results of bacteriological analysis of PLA samples were compared against the res...

Classification, nomenclature and identification of the Streptococcus anginosus group (SAG) have been historically problematic and unreliable, mainly due to variability in bacteriological characteristics and clinical presentations. This group was first discovered in 1956 by Guthof, in reference to non-hemolytic streptococcal lassification, nomenclature and identification of the Streptococcus ang...

Rapid and accurate diagnosis is crucial for effective treatment of bacterial meningitis. Bacteriological culture of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and blood is still the single most important laboratory investigation which is carried out. However, in some cases, bacteriological culture is unable to detect any causative organisms. This may be due to a number of reasons such as prior antibiotic therap...
