متن کاملEvaluation of [67Ga] citrate in the detection of various microorganism infections in animal models
Introduction: Gallium-67 citrate has been known as a good infection agent in nuclear medicine for decades. In this work the value of 67Ga-citrate has been investigated in infected animal models using SPECT imaging at optimized/standardized conditions. Methods: The bacterial (Staphylococcus aureus; S.a. and Escherichia coli; E.c.) and fungal (<em...
متن کاملAnimal Models of Non-Tuberculous Mycobacterial Infections
The use of animal models has been essential in understanding the pathogenesis of and hosts immune response to tuberculosis, as well as testing potential antimicrobial compounds and vaccines. Experimental animals have also been used to study infections due to non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM). Because there are many different species of NTM capable of causing disease and they have varying degre...
