This study was performed to investigate the prevalence of Salmonella spp. in 100 free freshwater common carp samples using the classic culture technique. For the confirmation of the isolates at molecular levels, the invA gene was detected. Serotyping of the isolates was also detected. The presence of invA, class 1 (Cls1) integrons, and integrase (Int1) genes was demonstrated by PCR assay; and th...

We find the Lie point symmetries for non–relativistic two-dimensional charged particle motion. These symmetries comprise a quasi–inva-riance transformation, a time–dependent rotation, a time–dependent spatial translation and a dilatation. The associated electromagnetic fields satisfy a system of first–order linear partial differential equations. This system is solved exactly, yielding four clas...

As part of a major international project for the validation and standardization of PCR for detection of five major food-borne pathogens, four primer sets specific for Salmonella species were evaluated in-house for their analytical accuracy (selectivity and detection limit) in identifying 43 Salmonella spp. and 47 non-Salmonella strains. The most selective primer set was found to be 139-141 (K. ...

salmonella spp. are zoonotic enteric bacteria able to infect humans, livestock and wildlife. the aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of salmonella (spp.) and to determine antibiotic susceptibility, serogrouping and presence of inva gene (salmonella invasion gene a) in the detected strains in wild captive herbivores in iran. the fecal samples of 103 animals from 8 different sp...

a total of 60 neck skin swab samples were taken from 12 different broiler flocks after the chilling stage of processing at a commercial broiler slughtering facility in mashhad. the presence of salmonella was assessed by conventional culture method and confirmed by using poly o and poly h antiserum in serotyping. pcr amplification of inva gene as a specific method for detection of salmonella was...

Diarrhoea, dysentery and other diseases due to other enteric bacteria have reportedly been found to resist chemotherapeutic treatment in some West African communities with fatal consequences in some cases. This study was carried out to determine multidrug resistance patterns of Enterobacteria isolates from processed ready-to-eat foods. Indigenously processed food samples of different types were...
