The present study aimed to evaluate the antibiotic resistance pattern of Escherichia coli strains isolatedfrom animals to ascertain the levels of antibiotic resistance pervasiveness. A total of 28 E. coli strains wereisolated from faecal samples and the antibiotic resistance pattern of E. coli strains was determined by meansof disc diffusion assay. The resistance pattern determined for all stra...

in this study, the effect of salicylic acid (sa) on root knot nematode (meloidogyne javanica) pathogenicity and induction of some defense mechanisms such as polyphenol oxidase enzyme activity and total phenol accumulation were investigated in greenhouse conditions. we demonstrated that application of 5mm salicylic acid through foliar spray could induce resistance against m. javanica in tomato. ...

Introduction: Dental caries is a significant public health problem which destroys the calcified tissues of the teeth. The frequency of lactobacilli in dental caries is usually high. The objective of this study was to evaluate the incidence of these bacteria in dental caries and to identify the antibiotic resistance patterns of them. Methods: Specimens from dental plaque were collected from 30 p...

p. atlantica subsp. kurdica, with the local name of baneh, is a wild medicinal plant which grows in kurdistan, iran.  the identification of resistance gene analogs holds great promise for the development of resistant cultivars. a pcr approach with degenerate primers designed according to conserved nbs-lrr (nucleotide binding site-leucine rich repeat) regions of known disease-resistance (r) gene...

background: multidrug resistant enterobacteriaceae which was confined to the hospital environments is now emerging in the domestic food related environments as well. the main objective of the present study was to investigate the prevalence of antibiotic resistant enterobacteriaceae in the domestic food related environments.  methods: resistance to ampicillin, chloramphenicol, ciprofloxacin, gen...

acquired azole resistance in opportunistic fungi causes severe clinical problems in immunosuppressed individuals. this study investigated the molecular mechanisms of azole resistance in clinical isolates of candida glabrata . six unmatched strains were obtained from an epidemiological survey of candidiasis in immunocompromised hosts that included azole and amphotericin b susceptible and azole r...

Shigella is a major cause of dysentery across the world. Appropriate antibiotic treatment of shigellosis depends on resistance patterns. The present study was conducted to identify Shigella species and their antibiotic resistance patterns among dysenteric patients in Rezaei Hospital of Damghan. Isolation of Shigella species was conducted by specific culture medium and biochemical tests. The Shi...

one of the great challenges in the treatment of infectious diseases is the resistance of pathogenic bacteria against antibiotics, and antibiotic resistance to shigella is broadly observed in different parts of the world. the object of this study was to determine shigella antibiotic resistance pattern against the antibiotics such as ampicillin, amoxicillin, trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole, chloram...

In this paper, the corrosion behavior of the filled epoxy paint with the rice husk ash RHA on steel substrates in two different corrosive environments natural sea water and 2M sulfuric acid has been studied. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy EIS was used to evaluate protective properties of different organic coating systems due to the different filler composition. RHA was prepared by heati...
