Background: Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are a severe public health problem and caused by range of pathogens, but most commonly Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Proteus mirabilis, Enterococcus faecalis Staphylococcus saprophyticus. High recurrence rates increasing antimicrobial resistance among uropathogens threaten to greatly increase the economic burden these infections. This study...

were compared. In both methods over 80% of the cells were sufficiently well preserved after three days to allow cytomorphological evaluation, and over 500% on the seventh day. In the specimens without preservative, only 54% and 28% were intact after the same time intervals. In contrast with 50% ethyl alchohol, thiomersal is a more effective bactericide, it does not increase the volume of the sa...

Chloramine (which occurs widely as a by-product of sanitary chlorination of water supplies) is shown to be a weak mutagen, when reversion of trpC to trpC in Bacillus subtilis is used as an assay. Some DNA-repair mutants appear to be more sensitive to chloramine, suggesting the involvement of DNA targets in bactericide. The influence of plating media on survival of cells treated with chloramine ...

In order to solve the corrosion problem of production string in process acidizing for purpose production, a new water-based annular protective fluid suitable HTHP acid gas, including H2S-CO2 wells, was developed. Firstly, an appropriate deoxidizer, bactericide, and inhibitor shall be selected according gas. addition, synergism between additives is evaluated. Then, by designing additive ratio, o...

The antibacterial effect of a new type I interferon inducer, an yeast RNA-tilorone molecular complex (MC), was studied using a model of staphylococcal infection. The MC taken in experimental doses being optimal interferon-inducing ones accelerates the Staphylococcus aureus elimination from mice organisms accompanied by increased functional ability (phagocytosis and bactericide activity) of peri...
