Microbialbiodegradation is known as an effective and harmless method to overcome environmental pollution with oil hydrocarbon. Some bacterial species were isolated from the Sarvestan oilfields (Iran, Fars province), then identified and applied for oil hydrocarbon decomposition. A carbon-free minimum medium (CFMM) containing 1% crude oil was used to isolate bacteria through incubation at 30°C in...

Bacterial Vaginosis (BV) is a condition of imbalance in the vaginal ecosystem, namely decreased number Lactobacillus followed by an increase numbers Gardnerella vaginalis and other anaerobic bacteria. About 90% Indonesian women have potential to experience discharge because Indonesia has tropical climate incidence continues every year up 70%. The purpose this research was determine correlation ...

lipopolysaccharide (lps) is an important structural component of the outer cell membrane complex of gram-negative microorganisms. its causative role in gram-negative bacteria-induced diseases and broad applications in different kinds of cell stimulation experiments provided a conceptual basis for studies directed at the isolation, purification, and detailed chemical characterization of lps. the...

this for granted. After Okinawa was returned to Japan in 1972, the program continued and so did the practice of Gram staining. Okinawa was a haven against managed care, extreme litigation, and the tendency to prescribe broad-spectrum antibiotics. Gram staining remained an integral part of clinical care. Currently, you can still see the white coats of house staff tainted with blue and red dots a...

Francisella philomiragia is a Gram-negative coccobacillus, which very rare human opportunistic pathogen causing pneumonia and systemic infection. It difficult to identify this bacterium through conventional Gram-staining biochemical methods due an amorphous Gram stain appearance after 24 h culture its relatively fastidious slow growth giving weak and/or delayed reactions in tests. often misiden...

Two hundred and fifty cases of clinically suspected urinary tract infection were analysed for the detection of bacteriuria. Parameters studied included direct Gram staining, pyuria on microscopic examination of uncentrifuged urine and dip strip method for the detection of blood, protein, nitrite and leucocyte esterase. Significant bacteriuria (colony count 10(5) per ml) was found in 112 cases w...

Halophilic bacteria are that can survive in environments with high salt levels, one of which is ponds. Therefore, it necessary to research determine the morphology halophilic for further use identification bacterial species. This study aimed colony and types gram bacteria. Isolation was carried out using scatter method. Bacterial purification by streak method, then staining were cell shape The ...

Dadiah is a traditional dairy food from West Sumatra. made by fermenting fresh buffalo milk in banana leaves covered bamboo sticks at room temperature for two days. nutritious because it contains lactic acid bacteria (LAB) that have probiotic properties. This study aims to determine the characteristics and biochemical properties of LAB catalase assay fermentation type. We identified found dadia...

Abstract Background & Aims of the Study: When the issue of the quality of the patient's care is addressed, determination of infection degrees in reference to the quality of such cares has gained a high priority. Therefore, infections in ambulance equipment might play a significant role in reduction of the quality of the hospital cares. This study was conducted wishing to det...

and spread during the summer to widely separated locations. In addition to white perch (Roccus americanus), striped bass (R. saxatilis) were involved to a lesser degree. Carefully selected moribund specimens were collected and delivered to the laboratory. Microscopy disclosed an abundance of polarly staining gram-negative rods in blood and organs of diseased fish. First isolations of these bact...
