The fitness of an individual bacterial cell is highly dependent upon the temporal tuning gene expression levels when subjected to different environmental cues. Kinetic regulation transcription initiation a key step in modulating transcribed genes promote survival.

introduction: adequate seal of iatrogenically perforated area within the root canal system can improve the long term treatment prognosis. this in vitro study evaluated the sealing ability of mineral trioxide aggregate (mta), calcium-enriched mixture (cem) cement and biodentine in repair of furcation perforation in primary molars. methods and materials: a total of 61 freshly extracted primary ma...

BACKGROUND The incidence of bacterial endocarditis is much greater in long-term dialysis patients compared with the general population, and chronic kidney disease has been postulated as an independent host-related risk factor. Limited data are available on the long-term survival of dialysis patients with endocarditis. METHODS Dialysis patients hospitalized for bacterial endocarditis between 1...

background and objectives : probiotics including strains of lactobacillus spp. are living microorganisms including which are beneficial to human and animals health. in this study, lactobacillus has been isolated from corn silage in a cold region of iran by anaerobic culture. materials and methods : the bacteriological and biochemical standard methods were used for identification and phenotypic ...

this study was intended to investigate the effectiveness of static magnetic field on the growth of escherichia coli (e. coli) provided from two sources, the urine samples of patients with urinary tract infections and the reference strain e. coli atcc 25922. bacterial samples in nutrient broth were subjected to a range of magnetic intensities (2, 4, 6, 9, 14, 16, 18, and 20 mt) at various exposu...

this study aimed to evaluate the effects of prebiotic immunoster on growth and nutrition performance, survival rate and body composition and intestine bacterial flora of common carp (cyprinus carpio) fingerlings. 15 fish with initial weight 12 + 1 g distributed in 12 tanks and fed with different dietary levels of prebiotic (0.5, 1.5, 2.5 g/kg diet) for 60 days. at the end of experimental period...

Background: Pre-exposure to radiofrequency radiations of mobile phones would significantly increase the survival rate of exposed animals compared to those exposed to a lethal dose of gamma radiation alone. Stimulation of the immune system is believed to be a key mechanism for the induction of this phenomenon, the so-called “adaptive response.” The immune system protects organisms against in...

The SaeRS two-component system plays important roles in regulation of key virulence factors and pathogenicity. In this study, however, we found that the deletion mutation of saeRS enhanced bacterial survival in human blood, whereas complementation of the mutant with SaeRS returned survival to wild-type levels. Moreover, these phenomena were observed in different MRSA genetic background isolates...
