The current study was aimed to investigate the prevalence of ureC, rsbA, zapA and mrpA virulence genes using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in Proteus spp. isolated from 5 commercially popular species of pet turtles and comparison of the mrpA gene sequences of Proteus mirabilis isolates with human clinical isolates. A total of 24 isolates in pet turtles were identified, comprised of P. mirabil...

PET (positron emission tomography) is a powerful imaging technique that can provide quantitative information on the distribution of positron emitter labeled radiopharmaceuticals (PET radiopharmaceuticals) in the body. Positrons (ß+) are positively charged beta particles. They are emitted when the atom is proton rich. A positron has only a transient existence. After losing all of its kinetic ene...

conclusions recent treatment, in addition to age, gender and daylight duration were proved as strong independent determinants on bat development and the level of metabolic activity at [18 f] dg pet/ct and should be considered as an important confounding factor in future researches. results one-hundred eighteen studies were recognized to demonstrate foci of fdg bat uptake (3.1%, mean age: 22.7 y...
