Pseudomonas aeruginosa is naturally resistant to many antibiotics, and infections caused by this organism are a serious threat, especially to hospitalized patients. The intrinsic low permeability of P. aeruginosa to antibiotics results from the coordinated action of several mechanisms, such as the presence of restrictive porins and the expression of multidrug efflux pump systems. Our goal was t...

human interferon β (inf-β) is a member of cytokines family which different studies have shown its immunomodulatory and antiviral activities. in this study an expression vector was designed and constructed for expression of human inf-β-1b either in shake flasks and bench top bioreactor. the designed vector was constructed based upon pet-25b(+) with t7 promoter. recombinant human beta interferon ...

vicia sativa l., an annual winter growing leguminous plant, is a valuable source of protein and minerals for cattle. drought is one of the key stress factors that influence plant growth and development. in order to investigate common vetch physiological and molecular responses under normal irrigation (n) and two levels of drought stress [s1= 30% and s2= 10% field capacity (fc)], a greenhouse exp...
