چکیده
Valentine, Artrice F. (Georgetown University, Washington, D.C.), Peter K. Chen, Rita R. Colwell, and George B. Chapman. Structure of a marine bacteriophage as revealed by the negative-staining technique. J. Bacteriol. 91:819-822. 1966.-The morphology of a marine bacteriophage has been determined by negative-staining techniques and electron microscopy. The virus possesses a head, 600 A in diameter, and a tail which may be from 860 to 1,000 A in lenght. No tail sheath is seen. The appearance of the terminal tail structure is discussed.

Morphological and histochemical investigation of the camel (Camelus dromedarius) abomasal mucous membrane by light and scanning electron microscopy (SEM)
Morphological and histochemical study of the abomasal epithelium in camel (Camelus dromedarius) wascarried out by light and scanning electron microscopes. The lining of the abomasum was divided into fourregions, i.e. cardiac, pseudocardiac, fundic and pyloric. Our investigation revealed that the cardiac andpseudocardiac regions occupy a wide part of the abomasum in camel and it reaches approxim...

In this study, Plasma Electrolytic Oxidation (PEO) technique was used for generating ceramic layer on the surface of aluminum alloy AA2024-T6 and the effect of coating time on the electrochemical corrosion behavior, micro-hardness, morphology of coating, and the phase structure was studied. The alloy was coated in 1, 3, 5 and 7 minutes at a constant electrical potential 550 V in a sodium silica...
متن کاملReporting an Experience: Improving the Feulgen Staining Technique for Better Visualizing of Nucleus
Among different staining methods used to demonstrate the nuclear abnormalities, Feulgen is one of the most reliable method. Feulgen staining is specific, sensitive method for evaluating the DNA damages.It has been shown that using non-DNA specific stains for monitoring the nuclear anomalies lead to false-positive or false-negative results. From self-experience, immersing the stained slides in h...

Abstract Background: Usual diagnostic methods for detection of Cryptosporidium include smear preparation, modified Zeihl-Neelsen staining, microscopic examination and observation of oocysts. No studies have been done to compare PCR and Zeihl-Neelsen staining in Iran. This study was done to determine the positive predictive value, (PPV) and the negative predictive value (NPV) of PCR in compariso...

Introduction: Bacteriophages are viruses that infect and destroy prokaryote cells, specifically the bacteria. They act too selective, so as each bacteriophage affects only on specific type of bacteria. Due to their specific features, bacteriophages can be used as an appropriate substitute for antibiotics in infectious diseases treatment. Therefore, this study aimed to isolate E. coli-specific b...
