Antimicrobial Screening of Some Heterocyclic Compounds in DMSO Solutions

Some novel heterocyclic compounds such as thiazolidinones, dihydropyrazoles and oxazolines, have been synthesized and their structure confirmation was done by spectroscopic techniques such as IR, NMR and mass. The antimicrobial screening of the synthesized compounds was done in DMSO and DMF. ...

Utility of PCR for Molecular Diagnosis of Visceral Leishmaniasis

The diagnosis of visceral leishmaniasis (VL) can be performed by demonstrating the presence of parasites by direct microscopic examination, using invasive techniques (such as aspiration from the bone marrow, spleen, liver or lymph nodes), which present multiple disadvantages, for this reason, various serological techniques have been used, ...

Performance Assessment of the GenomEraTM Assay in Detecting Group B Streptococcus in Vaginal and Rectal Samples

Group B streptococcus (GBS), is one of the principal causes of severe neonatal infections. The most important risk factor for EOGBS is the vaginal colonization causing vertical transmission of bacteria to the infant during labor and delivery. Identification of pregnant women colonized with GBS is essential in the prevention of early onset neonatal sepsis (EOGBS). The current culture-based methodfor ...

Production Enzyme Invertase by Yeast Saccharomyces Cerevisiae Using Technology Fermentation Commentator

Introduction and Objectives: Due to the many uses of baking yeast in several areas such as natural and industrial areas, including food processing and involving the production of Invertase enzymes, which is in many important areas, so its study has been aimed at using baking yeast in the production Enzyme enzymes ...

Biosynthetic Sharing of Anticancerous Natural Products by Plants and Endophytic Fungi

Endophytic fungi are diverse microbes that reside within the plants without causing any harmful effect to the host. They generally have a mutualistic relation with the host plant for the nutritional requirement. By occupying within the plant metabolism of these fungi have been known to be directed towards synthesis of metabolites which are beneficial ...

Bacterial Flora of Mobile Phones and Hands of HCWs from a Tertiary Care Hospital

We aimed to assess the pattern of bacterial flora on mobile phones and hands of healthcare workers in Intensive care unit of our hospital. ...

Nosocomial Infection Caused By Sphingomonas Paucimobilis—A Rare Pathogen

Sphingomonas paucimobilis is regarded as a rare opportunistic human pathogen. This organism is widely distributed in the natural environment (especially water and soil). It has been implicated in Nosocomial outbreak of bacteremia, catheter-related sepsis, meningitis, peritonitis, wound infections urinary tract infections, visceral abscesses, adenitis and endophthalmitis. ...

Bacteria Agents of Diarrhea among Children of 5 Years and Younger in Yenagoa, Bayelsa State, Nigeria

This study investigated the prevalence of enteric bacteria in 0 – 5 years children in Bayelsa state, Nigeria. Stool samples from 139 children with diarrhea symptoms were obtained from some private and public health institutions in Yenagoa Metropolis. The samples was analyzed using MacConkey, Eosin Methylene blue agar, Salmonella-Shigella agar under aerobic condition and isolates were ...

Aqueous extract of Sendeng-4 inhibit growth of microbial

The current study was designed to evaluate the aqueous extract of Sendeng-4 activity. The aqueous extract of Sendeng-4 was obtained by zeolite dialysis membranes with different apertures. And the Antimicrobial assay was determined. The results showed that there was not any growth in Microsporum canis and Trichophyton rubrum form the 85.5 mg/ml aqueous extract Sendeng-4. ...

Save the Food: Antimicrobial Peptide Surrogates for Food Preservation

Food contamination is a serious problem related to public health as it causes great morbidity. For that reason, there is a need to develop alternative preservation methods able to provide a better and safer quality of food from a microbiological and toxicology point of view. Thus, natural conservatives will have an important role shortly. Faced

Blood System Dwelling Microbiota. Application of Colistin

It is about "Septic shock" Defined as sepsis with hypotension requiring blood vessels Constriction agents treatment to keep a mean blood pressure of more than 65 mm Hg and a serum lactate level exceeding 2 mmol/L (18 mg/dL) after proper fluid resuscitation. Sepsis has a risk of mortality and long-term morbidity. Septicemia is a dangerous blood infection. Known as blood poisoning. ...

Viruses in Cerebral Microbiome Cause Neuronal Diseases

Martin Korte at the Technische Universität Braunschweig in Germany and colleagues reported that the brains of the mice which were infected with the flu virus suffered memory deficits even after they'd seemingly recovered. It turned out that their brains were full of microglia even 30 to 60 days and more after infection first took hold. ...

Synthesis, Characterization and Antimicrobial Activity of Some New Pyrimidine-5-Carboxylate Derivatives

Pyrimidine-5-carboxylate derivatives possess a broad spectrum of pharmacological action. A series of pyrimidine-5-carboxylate derivatives were synthesized and were characterized by IR, 1H NMR and mass spectroscopy. All these synthesized compounds were tested for in vitro antimicrobial against four Gram positive bacteria, four Gram negative bacteria and four fungal strains ...

Use of Phages in Combination with Antibiotics

Antibiotic-resistant bacterial infections area significant concern for public health. Phage therapy has been proposed as a promising alternative to antibiotics, but an increasing number of studies suggest that both antimicrobial agents in combination are more effective in controlling pathogenic bacteria than either alone. ...

Microbiome, TMAO, Butyrate, Short Chain Acids in the Internal Medical Health

The gutmicrobiota, now the device is the field of bacteria. Example of the archaea is the methane-producing Methanobrevibactersmithii, and Recent studies are the has been implicated in irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) with constipation [1]. Methane (CH4) is one of the gases that show the human intestines and is produced by aerobic bacteria fermentation. CH4 is described ...

Summary of the Study Response of Some Wheat Pathogenic Fungi to Chemical and Biological Control

A study was conducted efficiency of chemical and biological control against root rot fungi: Drechslera biseptata and Fusarium moniliforme which attack wheat. The chemical control included the systemic fungicidel vitavax. The biological control included: the biocide plant guard (which consists of spores of Trichoderma harzianum) and the biocontrol agent T. viride. ...
