Conventional microbiology methods used to detect bacteria include multiple cultures and identification processes, so the results of lab work are painstaking and time-consuming. In recent years, more and more tend to use the diagnostic tests which are based on DNA; hence, DNA diagnostic biosensors have been created to perform DNA identification better. In this study, GUS and hpt genes were used ...

multinational corporations (mncs) are major actors in contemporary world. their negative and positive impacts on human life make clear the need for expanding their responsibilities. the aim of this article is to show how responsibilities of mncs evolve during recent 50-60 years. through two sections, the article examines vertical and horizontal expansion of mncs’ responsibilities and then recen...

The production of β-lactamase enzymes is the main mechanism of resistance to β-lactam antibiotics in gramnegative bacilli. Therefore, it is important to identify the β-lactamases-producing bacteria for the treatment of caused infections. This article aimed to review the recent literature and guidelines regarding phenotypic detection of β-lactamases in common gram-negative bacilli in clinical sa...

background : reports on the association of nosocomial bacterial infections with indwelling medical devices such as intravenous catheters (ivc) has increased in recent years. the potential to form biofilm on these devices seems to be the main reason for establishment of such infections. the aim of this study was to measure the potential of biofilm formation by bacterial isolates from ivcs. metho...

background :   imipenem-resistant gram negative bacteria, resulting from metallo-beta-lactamase (mbls)-producing strains have been reported to be among the important causes of nosocomial infections and of serious therapeutic problem worldwide. because of their broad range, potent carbapenemase activity and resistance to inhibitors, these enzymes can confer resistance to almost all beta-lactams....

background: urinary tract infection (uti) is considered as the most common bacterial infectious disease seen among the pediatric patients. the aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence and antimicrobial susceptibility of bacterial uropathogens isolated from the pediatric patients with urinary tract infections. methods: this descriptive study was conducted in children medial center, te...
