Molecular typing of blood group genes in diagnostics

MOLECULAR TYPING AND INVESTIGATING THE PRESENCE OF EFFLUX GENES IN URINARY ISOLATES OF KLEBSIELLA PNEUMONIAE

Background & Aims: The efflux pumps play an important role in the development of drug resistance in Klebsiella pneumoniae. The aim of this study was to investigate the antibiotic resistance, and the presence of efflux genes, as well as molecular typing in clinical isolates of Klebsiella pneumoniae. Materials & Methods: In this cross sectional descriptive study, a total of 100 K. pneumoniae iso...

Molecular Diagnostics of Bacteria in Blood

Molecular Basis and Investigation of Blood Group Genes

There are 284 blood group antigens recognized by the ISBT Committee on Terminology for Red Cell Surface Antigens. Of these, 244 antigens are included in one of 29 blood groups systems. The rest are included in collections of similar antigens, or in a series of either low incidence or high incidence antigens. The biochemical work of the middle of the last century revealed these antigens to be ca...

Molecular typing of group A bovine rotavirus of calves in the provinces of Tehran, Alborz and Qazvin

BACKGROUND: Group A bovine rotavirus (BRV-A) is one of the most important causes of gastroenteritis and diarrhea in newborn calves. OBJECTIVES: Major types of BRV-A in Tehran, Alborz and Qazvin were detected in this study. METHODS: A total 125 fecal samples of calves showing clinical signs of diarrhea were collected from 26 industrial dairy farms located in the provinces of Tehran, Alborz and Q...

Precision medicine, technologies, and molecular diagnostics

Introduction: Genetics, cellular and molecular medicines are cutting-edge sciences and technologies that play an important role in improving human health and quality of life. In addition, medical and biological sciences have clearly shown that the onset of diseases differs from person to person due to their different genetic profiles and variations in molecular basis. Therefore, it is feasible ...
