Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is an important cause of respiratory tract disease in infants and the elderly. Currently, no licensed vaccine against RSV is available. Here we describe the development of a safe and effective intranasal subunit vaccine that is based on recombinant fusion (F) protein bound to the surface of immunostimulatory bacterium-like particles (BLPs) derived from the food...

The activity of azlocillin, a new semisynthetic penicillin, was determined against 582 clinical isolates of gram-negative bacilli and gram-positive cocci. Over 75% of the isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa were inhibited at a concentration of 12.5 mug or less per ml. Azlocillin is also active against indole-negative and -positive Proteus spp., inhibiting 98 and 71%, respectively, at a concentra...

The aim of this article is to present the exact analytical solution for models as system (2+1) dimensional PDEs by using a reliable manner based on combined LA-transform with decomposition technique and results have shown high-precision, smooth speed convergence compared other classic methods. suggested approach does not need any discretization domain or presents assumptions neglect small param...

This paper studies the practice of aggregating choices within discrete choice models. Researchers often do not observe choices at the exact level they are made, and hence aggregate choices to the level that is observed. Modeling choices at a fine level of detail can also lead to large choice sets that exceed the practical capabilities for model estimation. However, the practice of aggregation m...

The blp(St) cluster of Streptococcus thermophilus LMD-9 was recently shown to contain all the genetic information required for the production of bacteriocins active against other S. thermophilus strains. In this study, we further investigated the antimicrobial activity of S. thermophilus LMD-9 by testing the susceptibility of 31 bacterial species (87 strains). We showed that LMD-9 displays an i...
