Haemorrhagic septicaemia (HS) is a fatal systemic disease of cattle and buffaloes. Some control isachieved with administration of alum-precipitated or oil-adjuvanted killed whole-cell vaccines injectedsubcutaneously. These vaccines, however, provide only short-term immunity and for effective use, theyshould be administered annually. We constructed an aroA attenuated derivative of a Pasteurella ...

Strain measurements must often be made in the presence of electric and/or magnetic fields which can superimpose electrical noise on the measurement signals. If not controlled, the noise can lead to inaccurate results and incorrect interpretation of the strain signals; and, in severe cases, can obscure the strain signals altogether. In order to control the noise level, and maximize the signal-to...

Reversible control of surface wettability has wide applications in lab-on-chip systems, tunable optical lenses, and microfluidic tools. Using a graphene sheet as a sample material and molecular dynamic simulations, we demonstrate that strain engineering can serve as an effective way to control the surface wettability. The contact angles θ of water droplets on a graphene vary from 72.5◦ to 106◦ ...

susceptibility of two wild strains of an. stepliens, collected from kazeroun (st-k.az and bandar-abbas (st-ban), south of iran was compared to fenthion, malathion, temephos , pirimiphos, methyk, deltamethrth, ddt dimilin and etopenprox as larvicides in the laboratory. susceptibility test on the st-kaz strain indicated that this strain is susceptible to the named insecticides i.e. the resistance...

in the present survey 194 gram positive bacteria isolated from the rhizosphere of bean from markazi province and also 41 isolates from the collection of research center of biological control at tehran universitiy were evaluated on the basis of inhibitionry zone of fungal growth. finally eight more appropriate strains of b. subtilis were selected for greenhouse trials. results indicated that ant...
