djendjen river is one of the largest rivers in the region of jijel (algeria). human activities such as urban discharges, industrial, agricultural, and livestock have significant effects on the quality of water. the present study attempts to evaluate the quality of water along the banks of the djendjen river at different sampling sites, using physico-chemical and bacteriological methods. the col...

Microorganisms have a significant influence on human activities and health, and consequently, there is high demand to develop automated, sensitive, and rapid methods for their detection. These methods might be applicable for clinical, industrial, and environmental applications. Although different techniques have been suggested and employed for the detection of microorganisms, and the majority o...

Given the remarkable increase of public interest in organic food products, it is indeed critical to evaluate the microbiological risk associated with consumption of fresh organic produce. Organic farming practices including the use of animal manures may increase the risk of microbiological contamination as manure can act as a vehicle for transmission of foodborne pathogens. This study aimed to ...

vegetables, used in preparing salads, are most important part of the diet. these materials are often irrigated by untreated urban wastewater. wastewater, contaminated with ova of parasites, bacteria and protozoa, are used as fertilizers and it can cause a variety of infectious diseases. the purpose of this study is detection of microbial contamination of salad used in ilam’s restaurants. in thi...

Microbiological testing is a critical aspect of the development and evaluation medical devices, as it plays vital role in ensuring their safety efficacy. This article highlights importance microbiological device various types tests that are commonly performed. essential for assessing potential risks associated with such bacterial contamination or infections. Testing can also help to identify so...

an agar well diffusion bioassay method for determination of clarithromycin in human plasma, using micrococcus luteus atcc 9341 as the assay organism, was compared with a selective high-performance liquid chromatographic (hplc) method with uv detection. spiked plasma was used to prepare standard and control samples for both methods. the results of the bioassay analyses with spiked plasma samples...

During the past century, the microbiological safety of the US food supply has improved; however, many foodborne illnesses and outbreaks occur annually. Hence, opportunities for the food industry to improve the safety of both domestic and imported food exist through the adoption of risk-based preventive measures. Challenging food safety issues that are on the horizon include demographic changes ...

could not be extrapolated to all practices in the United States. We would like to point out that the 63 cases of allograft-associated infections cited as “alleged” were actually definite: all were ascertained through strict case definition, active case finding, detailed tissue trace-back investigation, and microbiological confirmation. Notwithstanding the excellent safety record of allograft ti...

Microbiological safety of water in the pipe network is an important guarantee for safe drinking water. Simulation tests stainless steel were carried out using te4a polyphenols and sodium hypochlorite as auxiliary disinfectants ozone disinfection to analyze persistent effects different combined methods by measuring changes total bacterial colonies High-throughput sequencing microorganisms was pe...

Interest in using seaweed as food is growing Nordic countries and other Europe. Seaweed the biggest aquaculture product world, yet there are still no international standards on safety, such Codex or guidelines EU legislation for seaweed. In Europe limited experience of seaweed, little known about potential risks benefits to human health when it consumed. Guidance needed both producers public ag...
