Wound infection after surgery can be addressed to bacteria inoculation into the operation site. Sutures can facilitate bacteria colonization on them. Several suture types are used in the oral cavity. The aim of this clinical study was to compare bacterial adhesion tendencies on silk, polyglycolic acid sutures and polyglecaprone 25 sutures. Eight patients underwent lower impacted third molar sur...

background and objectives: the microbiological monitoring of the water used for haemodialysis is important especially for legionella and non-fermentative bacteria since patients with end stage renal disease (esrd) are suffering from deteriorated function of immune system. materials and methods: a total 50 water and dialysate samples were weekly collected over a period of 10 weeks from 5 sites. ...

to survive in natural waters, bacteria must respond to variety of environmental factors. flexibacter survival in the aquatic environment is influenced by number of parameters, such as temperature, heavy metal concentration and oxidation. here we investigate the influence of these factors on the survival of flexibacter chinensis in starvation medium. our data shows that different concentrations ...

The effects of whey protein (12%) and sodium alginate (0.5%) on chemical, microbial and sensory changes and shelf life in kilka during frozen storage are investigated for up to 6 months. Total bacteria count and Staphylococcus bacteria counts(2 / 51 and 1 / 44 log CFU/g) in coated samples showed decrease in comparison with control samples(3.21- 2.28 log CFU/g). Moisture of coated samples had s...

The level of dental and oral hygiene on elementary school age children is very low, so it can be increasing the incidence of dental and oral diseases which caused by various microorganisms. Moutwash can keep dental and oral hygiene, but many commercial mouthwash is still used alcohol as their ingredients, which can be giving side effects, therefore, we still needed used alternative mouthwash, w...
