INTRODUCTION Circulating strains of Staphylococcus aureus (SA) have changed in the last 30 years including the emergence of community-associated methicillin-resistant SA (MRSA). A report suggested staphylococcal toxic shock syndrome (TSS) was increasing over 2000-2003. The last population-based assessment of TSS was 1986. METHODS Population-based active surveillance for TSS meeting the CDC de...

This study was carried out during two successive seasons of 2018 and 2019 on cherry tomato F1 hybrid Cherubino which harvested at turning stage (25% red colour) from a private Farm El Salhia Gadeda District, Sharkia Governorate, Egypt. The aim this work to the effect dipping fruits in solutions some edible materials, (arabic gum, cellulose, pectin, xanthan) maintaining quality storability posth...

Ethylene plays an important role in kiwifruit ripening. However, it is unclear whether there are differences ethylene production different parts of during postharvest Kiwifruit were treated with 0.5 μL L−1 1-MCP for 12 h at 20°C and stored 20 ± 1°C. The results showed the firmness, soluble sugar, total solids (TSS), AcACS1 AcETR2 gene expressions highest core, starch, AcACO2, AcACO3 seedless pu...

The present study was carried out to investigate the effect of recipes and varieties Mango (Mangifera indica L.) pickle on changes in physico-chemical properties during storage at Post Graduate Laboratory Department Horticulture, College Agriculture, Central Agricultural University, Imphal 2020-2021. experiment laid factorial randomized block design (FRBD) with eight treatments three replicatio...

A minimally addressed area in Saccharomyces cerevisiae research is the mapping of transcription start sites (TSS). Mapping of TSS in S.cerevisiae has the potential to contribute to our understanding of gene regulation, transcription, mRNA stability and aspects of RNA biology. Here, we use 5' SAGE to map 5' TSS in S.cerevisiae. Tags identifying the first 15-17 bases of the transcripts are create...

Toxic shock syndrome (TSS) is a potentially fatal illness caused by infection with the bacterium Staphylococcus aureus. TSS toxin-1 (TSST-1) contains a T-cell epitope with specificity for human V-beta-2. Binding of TSST-1 to the human major histocompatibility complex and T cell receptors activates T cells and triggers the secretion of high amounts of inflammatory cytokines, leading to TSS and p...

A prospective study of all cases of Streptococcus suis blood or CSF culture positive admitted to Lamphun Provincial Hospital in northern Thailand was carried out. Fifty-three cases of S. suis were identified, which comprised 70% of all viridans streptococci cases. The majority of cases (88.6%) were contracted orally and 83.0% had an underlying disease present. Five clinical syndromes were ident...

Several families of plant viruses evolved cap-independent translation enhancers (3'CITE) in the 3' untranslated regions of their genomic (g)RNAs to compete with ongoing cap-dependent translation of cellular mRNAs. Umbravirus Pea enation mosaic virus (PEMV)2 is the only example where three 3'CITEs enhance translation: the eIF4E-binding Panicum mosaic virus-like translational enhancer (PTE) and r...

Received: June 05, 2015 Revised: May 09, 2016 Accepted: May 11, 2016 Abstract: Background: Turbo Similarity Searching (TSS) has been proved as one of the effective and simple searching method in Cheminformatics. Emerging from the conventional similarity searching, TSS depended on the concept of fusion where relationship between the target being sought and the compound in the database are indire...

The present study was conducted to evaluate the effect of maturity stages on physicochemical characteristics grapefruit (Citrus paradisi cv. ‘Shamber Tarnab’) under storage conditions for 60 days at ambient temperature (16±1 °C with 55-60% relative humidity). Grapefruits were harvested different stages, namely mature green (MG) and full ripe (FR). fruits both assessed physical quality parameter...
