Background & Aim: Very studies results show that many plants can be used safety and successfully to treat bacterial diseases without presenting the disadvantages affects and antibiotic resistance. Eucalyptus globulus and Malva neglecta are native plants in Iran that due to containing different chemical compounds have been antimicrobial activity against some bacteria. The aim o...

Escherichia coli F18 bacteria producing enterotoxins and/or shigatoxin (ETEC/STEC) are main pathogens that cause oedema disease and postweaning diarrhoea in piglets, and alpha-1-fucosyltransferase (FUT1) gene has been identified as a candidate gene for controlling the expression of ETEC F18 receptor. The genetic variations at nucleotide position 307 in open reading frame of FUT1 gene in one wil...

Wolbachia are cytoplasmically inherited bacteria that induce a variety of effects with fitness consequences on host arthropods, including cytoplasmic incompatibility, parthenogenesis, male-killing and feminization. We report here the presence of Wolbachia in native South American populations of the fire ant Solenopsis invicta, but the apparent absence of the bacteria in introduced populations o...

objective: the growing resistance of different bacteria to antibiotic chemical drugs have become the global issue. this investigation is the first study of the antimicrobial activity of the essential oil of flowering aerial parts of vaccinium arctostaphylos. the current research was conducted to evaluate the antibacterial effects of essential oils and hydroalcoholic extract  extracted from aeri...

background:pneumonia and respiratory tract infections, is associated with high mortality and complications in humans. current antibiotics are used to treat this infectious disease, but may lead to many problems such as unwanted side effects and resistance to antibiotics. this study investigated the antibacterial activity of the hydro alcoholic extracts of the native medicinal plants peganum har...

We conducted surveys to identify the species of spore-forming bacteria present in natural and artificial containers. Most of our samples came from Illinois. Identification was based on the cellular fatty acid composition of the bacterial cell wall. In addition, we utilized a custom database for commercially produced strains of Bacillus thuringiensis var. israelensis (Bti) and B. sphaericus, to ...
