background and purpose: chronic granulomatous disease (cgd) is an inherited disorder of the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (nadph) oxidase complex. this disorder results in recurrent life-threatening bacterial and fungal infections. aspergillus species are the most common fungal infections in these patients. case report: herein, we present a case of fungal infection in a girl with ...

background candiduria is one of the most common symptoms of urinary tract infections caused by several species of candida spp. several antifungals are available to treat such candidal infections. during the last decades, resistance to antifungal especially to non-albicans species has increased. objectives the present study aimed to evaluate the susceptibility to antifungal drugs of candida spec...

results sixteen patients (66.7%) in antibiotic group and 20 patients (90.9%) in placebo group had post-operative swelling and pain. the average pain in the antibiotic and placebo groups were (31.04 + 26.29) and (37.73 + 23.69) respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant (p value = 0.37). one patient in each group had probing depth between 5 to 7 mm in six months after sur...

background and objective: angiogenesis is a complex program of several steps and it is tightly regulated by pro- and anti-angiogenic factors. angiogenesis is one of the key elements in cutaneous wound healing and skin cancers. estrogen seems to have positive modulating effect on cutaneous wound healing and this effect may be explained by its angiogenic properties. this study aims to investigate...

results gelatin films exhibited good tensile strength and elongation at break, water solubility, swelling, and water vapor permeability. incorporation of tam into the gelatin films caused a significant decrease in tensile strength and swelling, and a significant increase in elongation at break, water solubility, water vapor permeability and whiteness of the films. gelatin films exhibited low an...

conclusions the current study results showed that silver nanoparticles produced by plantago ovata seed extract had an antibacterial effect on staphylococcus aureus which was resistant against cefixime, trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and penicillin. results the silver nanoparticles revealed gaussian distributions with the average diameter of 13 nm with some deviations, and results showed that the...

presently appearance of resistance to antifungal agents among aspergillus species is dramatically increasing. the objective of this study was to look at the in vitro activities of antifungal drugs against iranian clinical (from nail, bronchoalveolar lavage, paranasal sinus) isolated a. flavus strains. the susceptibility of 45 aflatoxigenic and non-aflatoxigenic aspergillus flavus strains were e...

aims: the synthetic colors are preferred by the food industry because of the variety of shades, intensity, uniformity, excellent solubility and stability. they are used in a variety of food products such as dairy products, beverages, baked products, confections and pet foods. food colors may have toxic effects on the human body. this study aimed to examine the amount of synthetic colors in some...
