BACKGROUND Snake bites are one of the significant health problems in the tropical and subtropical regions. Snake bite is a common medical emergency in Iran, and the epidemiological features and management of such cases vary from region to region. OBJECTIVES This present research study was conducted to obtain new information about the epidemiology of snake bites in the region of Kashan, locate...

[email protected]. Abstract: In this study we have developed a simple, cheap, and rapid method for purification of 6×histidine-tagged recombinant proteins with high yields. The new immobil...

Contamination of human and animal body tissues with flies' larvae and diptera cause myiasis. A 26 yr old female patient refers to Kashan Shahid Beheshti Hospital, central Iran because of urogenital infection, pain in the right part of stomach, smelly and reddish vaginal discharge and frequent urination. In the first checking, urine sample was taken. In the sample, active and alive larvae were s...

Washing conditions that included a soak or brush scrub were evaluated for removal of Salmonella from the surface of smooth (honeydew) or complex (cantaloupe) melon rinds. Melon rinds were spot-inoculated onto a 2.5 cm2 area of rind (squares) with approximately 6.0 log(10) CFU/square of an avirulent nalidixic acid-resistant strain of Salmonella typhimurium. Melons were washed by immersion in 150...

Grafting is effectively used worldwide to overcome abiotic and biotic factors impacting yield, including soil temperature. Field studies were conducted in 2020 2021 a cool Mediterranean climate (average daily air temperature range of 12.8–17.1 °C) identify suitable rootstock combinations for grafted cantaloupe (Cucumis melo var. reticulatus) evaluate fruit yield quality. Cantaloupe cultivars Su...

Cantaloupes have emerged as significant vehicles of widespread foodborne illness outbreaks caused by bacterial pathogens, including Salmonella . The purpose this study was to investigate the efficiency colonization and internalization in cantaloupes relevant routes contamination. Cantaloupe plants ( Cucumis melo ‘reticulatus’) from two cultivars ‘Athena’ (Eastern) ‘Primo’ (Western) were grown c...

UNLABELLED Previous research examined sanitation treatments on cut cantaloupe tissue to deliver germicidal and food safety effects. However, an apparent compromise between volatile loss and treatment/sampling efficacy appeared. Subsequently, a physiological and volatile reassessment of thinly sliced tissue against cubes was performed in cantaloupe tissue. Thin sliced cantaloupe L* decreased 27....

This research investigates the efficacy of gaseous ozone, applied under partial vacuum in a controlled reaction chamber, for the elimination of Salmonella inoculated on melon rind. The performance of high dose, short duration treatment with gaseous ozone, in this pilot system, on the microbial and sensory quality of fresh-cut cantaloupes was also evaluated. Gaseous ozone (10,000 ppm for 30 min ...
