Methods for detecting microorganisms on surfaces are needed to locate biocontamination sources and to relate surface and airborne concentrations. Research was conducted in an experimental room to evaluate surface sampling methods and quantitative PCR (QPCR) for enhanced detection of a target biocontaminant present on flooring materials. QPCR and culture analyses were used to quantitate Bacillus...
The Stethoscope— A Vector of Infection? To the Editor: In the course of investigating a hospital-wide outbreak of methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus, 67 physicians' stethoscopes were cultured. Both the bell and the diaphragm were sampled with a sterile cotton swab, and this was immediately streaked onto Columbia Nutrient Agar (BBL), a selective medium for grampositive organisms. The ca...
see nothing. Then it occurred to me, that the condition might be due to a leech in the nostril. I applied to the affected nostril, a turpentine swab and a wet cotton plug. The leech came out and I caught it in a tray containing water, in which it lived for a few hours. Remarks.?Invasion of the nasal cavity and ears is quite common in places near coffee estates, which are infested very heavily w...
Ophthalmomyiasis in humans caused by the larvae of the sheep nasal botfly (Oestrus ovis) and is a rare phenomenon in Israel. We describe the utilization of the dermatoscope as a diagnostic tool for the facilitation of early diagnosis of conjunctivitis due to the infestation of the eyes by the sheep nasal botfly in two patients. After the physical removal of the larvae with the help of a cotton ...
Tissue preparation The segments of the right coronary arteries (2-3 cm from the origin) were excised from the porcine hearts at a local slaughterhouse immediately after the animals had been slaughtered. The segments were brought back to the laboratory in ice-cold normal physiological salt solution (PSS). After removing the adventitia, the segments were cut into strips in a circular direction, a...
OBJECTIVE This prospective study aims to compare three different sampling techniques for the collection of endometrial cytological specimens in the mare: the guarded culture swab, the uterine cytobrush and the low volume uterine flush. MATERIAL AND METHODS The study population consisted of six healthy Standardbred mares in dioestrus. In each mare an acute endometritis was induced by performin...
Troublesome bleeding from small blood vessels occurs during operations on the cornea and sclera. The bleeding from the smaller blood vessels will stop spontaneously if given time, the larger vessels may need to be cauterized. The traditional way of dealing with the blood by mopping it up with cotton swabs or cellulose sponges has some disadvantages. The bleeding point and the surrounding area h...
Wound infection plays an important role in the development of chronicity, delaying wound healing. It is one of the health problems that are caused by the invasion of pathogenic organisms. This study aimed to identify the bacterial pathogens present in wounds and to determine their antibiotic susceptibility profile to the most common antibiotics used in therapy. One hundred and fifty swab sample...
BACKGROUND Loss of teeth affects the individual's health. Many factors determine the need to wear a removable dental prosthesis. Due to nature of design, age and lack of awareness, prosthesis often are neglected to maintain in an aseptic condition leading to microbial contamination. This provided an impetus for the present study with the aim of determining the microbial contamination of removab...
There are few studies on rhinitis and sick building syndrome (SBS) among students in tropical countries. We studied associations between levels of five fungal DNA sequences, two mycotoxins (sterigmatocystin and verrucarol) and cat allergen (Fel d 1) levels in schools and rhinitis and other weekly SBS symptoms in the students. Fungal DNA was measured by quantitative PCR and cat allergen by ELISA...
