Abstract: In this research, the oxidation behaviour of high Aluminum heat resistant steel (%25Cr,%20Ni,%8Al) hasbeen evaluated at the temperature range of (1000-1300ºC).The results showed that there was no countinous healinglayer on the surface of the alloy when Al increased up to %5.5 and the oxidation resistance of steel decreased due toformation of spinel oxides on the surface.By increasing ...

The task of a high-level behavioural synthesis system is to create a structure to implement a given abstract specification of behaviour. The behaviour is specified at the algorithmic level, typically in the form of a high-level programming language. The synthesized structure is described at the register-transfer level. In such systems the synthesis task is guided only by the behaviour and some ...

conclusions our results illustrated the presence of clonal groups of highly gentamicin-resistant strains of mrsa in hospitals in tehran. the php typing method provided useful information for both clonal dissemination and determining the epidemiological links of the clonal groups of the mrsa strains. materials and methods a total of 301 s. aureus isolates were collected during january to novembe...

conclusions: ten percent of the isolates were positive for meca gene among the vancomycin-oxacillin resistant strains, while van gene was not detected in any of the isolates. the data obtained would be useful in clinical control of resistant staphylococcal strains. results: a total of 120 staphylococcus isolates were screened, out of which, 32 (26%) were susceptible to both methicillin and vanc...

Background: Acinetobacter baumannii is one of the causes of nosocomial infections, especially in the intensive care unit. The emergence of multidrug-resistant strains of A. baumannii has caused many problems. One of the ways to handle the phenomenon of antibiotic resistance is the use of herbal medicines and their derivatives in place of or in combination with antibiotics. The aim of this study...

OBJECTIVES Francisella tularensis, a CDC class A potential bioterrorism agent, is a Gram-negative bacterium responsible for tularaemia. Understanding the mechanisms of resistance to antibiotics used as first-line treatment is of major security relevance. METHODS We propagated the three parental reference strains Francisella tularensis subsp. holarctica live vaccine strain, Francisella novicid...
