pseudomonas aeruginosa is among the most important pathogens in the nosocomial infections. a genetic mobile element, the integron, is one of the major agents involved in dissemination of multi-drug resistance among gram negative bacteria. during a descriptive study from october 2009 to august 2010, some 130 p. aeruginosa clinical isolates were collected from different wards of three hospitals i...

background :   ampc beta lactamases play a significant role in creating resistance to third generation cephalosporins worldwide. they mostly express on chromosome of enterobacteriaceae especially escherichia coli and cause consequential problem in clinical treatment and lead to failure in diagnosis and phenotypic test recommended by clinical and laboratory standards institute.   methods : total...

hla-g is normally expressed on human trophoblast cells. it is a non-classical mhc molecule class i b. the role of hla-g in diabetic type 1 is not known. we investigated the role of ifn-β in induction hla-g expression on the monocyte derived dendritic cells (dc) in diabetes type 1. treatment of dendritic cell with ifn-β in vitro from diabetic patients (n=20) and normal subjects (n=20) resulted t...

background and objectives: the genus johrenia belongs to umbelliferae family and contains five species that are endemic to iran. johrenia paucijuga grows widely in the north-west, west and center of iran. so far, there has been no research about phytochemistry of j. paucijuga. in the present study, phytochemicals of the plants have been isolated and their structures have been elucidated. method...

by application of modern recombinant dna technology, especially the polymerase chain reaction (pcr)/dot-blot hybridization techniques, we have investigated the molecular basis of β-thalassemia from four different regions of iran: central, south-east, south and north. in this study, the dna samples were isolated from patients and for the identification of the mutations, the 6 oligonucleotide pro...
