conclusions: we determined a significant higher frequency of protein s deficiency in patients with rpl compared with controls. but the frequency of protein c deficiency and the frequency of two common thrombophilic mutations (factor v leiden and prothrombin g20210a), were not significantly different between patients with recurrent miscarriage and healthy women. results: the mean functional acti...

conclusions we report a high methicillin-resistant s. aureus rate in our hospital. additionally, t030 and t037 were the predominant spa-types among hospital-associated s. aureus. our findings emphasize the need for continuous surveillance to prevent the dissemination of multidrug resistance among different s. aureus protein a types in iran. background the incidence of nosocomial staphylococcus ...

One of the most commonly observed surface structures on the prokaryotic cell envelopes is monomolecular crystalline array of proteinaceous subunits termed Surface Layers or S-layers. Due their self assembly ability and the highly ordered, regular structure down to the nanometer scale, S-layers were demonstrated to possess a great potential for nanobiotechnological applications. Some probiotic b...
