certain potato cultivars such as native potato species (nps) from the andes are known to have resistances to different pests and diseases. some accessions are also interesting from a nutritional and culinary perspective. a collection of 35 nps and 11 old spanish accessions were analysed for streptomyces scabies, rhizoctonia solani and globodera rostochiensis, as well as dry matter, reducing sug...
In the fall of 2008, light was shed on the practice of syringe re-use occurring in western Canada (Government of Alberta, 2009). In this situation, syringes had been re-used between patients to administer sedating medication through patient intravenous (IV) lines (Government of Alberta, 2009). Later it was reported that other incidents of syringe re-use had occurred in Canada (CBC News-Edmonton...
CONCERN about human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and other bloodborne pathogens is rising throughout society as infection becomes more prevalent. Many members of the Society of Interventional Radiology (SIR) have expressed the need for an official statement from the Society that addresses practice issues unique to interventional radiology. As a result, the SIR Subcommittee on HIV and Bloodborne...
The aim of this study was to assess the risk of blood and body fluid exposure among non-hospital based registered nurses (RNs) employed in New York State.

OBJECTIVES Knowledge, attitudes, and practices of healthcare providers related to occupational exposure to bloodborne pathogens were assessed in a tertiary-care hospital in Middle East. METHODS A cross-sectional study was undertaken using a self-administered questionnaire based on 3 paired (infectivity known vs. not known-suspected) case studies. Only 17 out of 230 respondents had an exposure...
Healthcare workers who use or may be exposed to needles are at risk of needlestick injuries, which can lead to serious infections by bloodborne pathogens. These injuries can be avoided by eliminating the unnecessary use of needles and using safety devices. The present study was aimed at evaluating the impact of a safety-engineered device, with passive fully automatic needlestick protection, on ...
Prevention of percutaneous sharps injuries in perioperative settings remains a challenge. Occupational transmission of bloodborne pathogens, not only from patients to health care providers but also from health care providers to patients, is a significant concern. Legislation and position statements geared toward ensuring the safety of patients and health care workers have not resulted in signif...
Increasing numbers of hospital-acquired infections have generated much attention over the last decade. The public has linked the so-called 'superbugs' with their experience of dirty hospitals but the precise role of environmental cleaning in the control of these organisms remains unknown. Until cleaning becomes an evidence-based science, with established methods for assessment, the importance o...
The care of patients with serious infections both within and outside healthcare settings is increasingly complicated by the high prevalence of resistant or multidrug-resistant (MDR) pathogens. Moreover, infections caused by MDR versus susceptible bacteria or other pathogens are associated with significantly higher mortality, length of hospital stay, and healthcare costs. Antimicrobial misuse or...
