objective(s) resistance to antimicrobial agents, particularly metronidazole and clarithromycin, is frequently observed in helicobacter pylori and may be associated with treatment failure. this resistance rate varies according to the population studied. the aim of this study was to assess the pattern of antimicrobial resistance of h. pylori isolates from dyspeptic patients in isfahan. materials ...

modification of natural polymers like protein by graft co-polymerization is an important method to incorporate the desired properties into the backbone. soy protein concentrate (spc) was grafted with ethylmethacrylate (ema) using ascorbic acid /potassium persulphate as redox initiator system under pressure. different reaction parameters such as reaction time, reaction pressure, solvent amount, ...

ni-p and ni layers multilayer coatings were applied to az31 magnesium alloy utilizing electroless and electrodeposition procedures. the aim of the project was to decrease cracks and increase corrosion resistance of the coatings. in order to compare the coatings, the effect of single layer electroless ni-p coatings with different thicknesses was also investigated. the microstructure and phase co...

In this research article laboratory investigations of sulfate resistance and alkali-silica reaction recycled aggregate concrete are presented. A total eighteen prisms 25mm x 286mm were prepared using a 1:3 (cement: fine aggregates) mix 0.4 water to binder ratio. The specimens in three batches aggregates, conventional sand. An equal number samples was used evaluate reaction. change length measur...

conclusions the findings show fluconazole -resistance in c. albicans isolates with overexpression of pir1p. results in the 52 isolates, 49 (94%) were resistant to fluconazole. overexpression of pir1 gene was detected in 47 (96%) fluconazole-resistant c. albicans isolates. patients and methods a total of 52l vaginal samples were obtained from the females with c. albicans vaginitis. the azole sus...

results the number of s. pneumoniae isolates resistant to benzylpenicillin, imipenem, oxacillin and ceftazidime were 94.5%, 100%, 100%, and 21.8%, respectively. analysis of mutation in the genes for pbp showed that 85% of isolates had mutations in pbp2x, pbp2b and pbp1a. susceptibility to benzylpenicillin was decreased once the number of mutated pbp genes in s. pneumonia increased. according to...
