over one-year period, 150 pasture soil samples and 138 sheep faecal samples, collected from different parts of iran were screened for the presence of nematophagous fungi. the samples were cultured at 25ºc on chloramphenicol-2% water agar (chf-wa) plates in the presence of haemonchus contortus third stage larvae (l3) and checked over a two-month period for characteristic conidia, conidiophores a...

background: phenol, as a pure substance, is used in many fields because of its disinfectant, germicidal, local anesthetic, and peptizing properties. aqueous solutions of phenol are produced as waste in industries and discharged into the environment. therefore, elevated concentrations of phenol may be found in air or water because of industrial discharge or the use of phenolic products. method: ...

background pseudomonas aeruginosa is one of the most important agents causing nosocomial infections worldwide. multidrug resistance of isolated bacteria from nosocomial infections makes it difficult and sometimes impossible to treat. objectives the aim of the present study was to investigate the antibiotic resistance and association between blaimp and blavim genes with resistance to meropenem a...

Local strain measurements opposite gravel contacts and around a single isolated perforation are reported for a high-density-polyethylene pipe (320 mm outside diameter, 32 mm thick) typical of that commonly used as part of the leachate collection system in municipal solid waste landfills. Emphasis is given to examining the localized effect of coarse gravel contacts on pipe strain and the strain ...

Abstract The main etiologic agent of tuberculosis (TB) in livestock is Mycobacterium bovis; human TB cases caused by M. bovis are rare. Analysis a outbreak polyresistant involving and sympatric sheep Spain suggests local circulation drug-resistant strains among livestock.

-An array of sigmoidal tension gashes from the Idaho-Wyoming thrust belt changes laterally into a continuous vein. Detailed mechanical twin analysis was used to determine the strain variation in the optically and chemically homogeneous blocky calcite filling. In the continuous portion of the vein complex, the shortening axes are parallel to the vein boundary. However, the orientation of the sho...

To examine local network properties of the mouse auditory cortex in vitro, we recorded extracellular spatiotemporal laminar profiles driven by short electric local stimulation on a planar multielectrode array substrate. The recorded local field potentials were subsequently evaluated using current source density (CSD) analysis to identify sources and sinks. Current sinks are thought to be an ind...
