AIM During the last decades, number of food poisoning cases due to Campylobacter occurred, immensely. After poultry, raw milk acts as a second main source of Campylobacter. Therefore, the present study was undertaken to detect the prevalence of Campylobacters in milk and milk products and to know the antibiotic sensitivity and virulence gene profile of Campylobacter spp. in Anand city, Gujarat,...

Silver nanoparticles is known to have antimicrobial affects. Cyanobacteria isolates from muthupet mangrove includes Aphanothece sp, Oscillatoria sp, Microcoleus sp, Aphanocapsa sp, Phormidium sp, Lyngbya sp, Gleocapsa sp, Synechococcus sp, Spirulina sp with were set in compliance with their cellular mechanism of nano silver creation, and were investigated by UV-VIS spectrophotometer, Energy-dis...

The objective of this study was to develop an innovative and advanced integrated “membrane oxidation” system for the treatment domestic wastewater by coupling membrane bioreactor (MBR), nanofiltration (NF) ozonation. Five contaminants were selected (acetaminophen, carbamazepin, sulfamethoxazole, tetracyclin terbutryn). MBR effluent samples have been fully characterized using conventional analys...

The National Reference Laboratory of Drug Residues Control has implemented a system "classical" honey safety control based on the parameters antimicrobial drug residues: samples testing by screening enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method and, in case positive or possibly occurring, – retesting confirmatory UPLC-MS/MS multi-method developed laboratory. article presents results ELISA va...

Streptococcus pyogenes (S. pyogenes) is the most important causative agent of tonsillopharyngitis. Beta-lactam antibiotics, particularly penicillin, are the drug of first choice and macrolides are recommended for patients who are allergic to penicillin. However, other antibiotics are also used for the treatment of streptococcal tonsillopharyngitis. In recent years, the increase in the incidence...

The current study was conducted during the period from beginningof October 2016 to April 2017 isolate and diagnose bacteria on theouter surface of domestic fly (Musca domestica) determine thesensitivity bacterial isolates against antibiotics using differentagricultural mediums. Insects were collected three sites in Tikritcity which are: vegetable market, butchers market sheep sheds. 50samples e...

background and objectives: cholera is an endemic diarrheal disease in iran, caused by vibrio cholerae . the epidemiology, transmission route, environmental determinants and antimicrobial resistant pattern of cholera have been changed during recent years. in this study the epidemiology and antimicrobial resistance of cholera in iran during 2013 outbreak was investigated. materials and methods: a...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the antimicrobial activities of Trachyspermum ammi, essential oil against different kinds of microorganisms by microtiter plate method. All 36 isolates of (12 Klebsiella pneumoniae, 12 E.coli and 12 Staphylococcus aureus) isolated from urine culture of hospitalized patients (Amir Al-Momenin Hospital, Zabol, south-eastern ...

Vibrios and other enteric pathogens can be found in wastewater effluents of a healthy population. We assessed the prevalence of three non-cholerae vibrios in wastewater effluents of 14 wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) in Chris Hani and Amathole district municipalities in the Eastern Cape Province of South Africa for a period of 12 months. With the exception of WWTP10 where presumptive vibrios...

Wastewater management has been subjected to different treatment technologies using chemical and biological techniques for several decades in order to protect the environment and public health. Biological treatment is based on microbial capability to reduce the pathogens load to achieve the lowest environmental as well as public health risks. However, such treatment is often neglecting the fact ...
