background: many studies have been showed that certain illnesses including fungi and bacterial infections can be transmitted to human by contaminated swimming pools water. the main objective of the present study was to detect microbial (bacterial and fungi) and chemical (ph and chlorine levels) pollutions of the all swimming pools water in hamadan city, iran . methods: this study was a cross-se...

Background and Objective: The endophytes are the fungi or bacteria that live within a plant in a symbiotic relationship. This study aimed to investigate the effect of isolated bacterial endophytes from Allium jesdianum on some bacterial pathogens such as Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli as well as pathogenic fungi, including Trichophyton mentagrophytes and Candida albicans. Materials an...

Fungi grow under humid conditions and are, therefore, prone to biofilm infections. A 16S rRNA fingerprint analysis was performed on 49 sporocarps of Basidiomycotina in order to determine whether they are able to control these biofilms. Ninety-five bacterial phylotypes, comprising 4 phyla and 10 families, were identified. While ectomycorrhizal fungi harbored the highest bacterial diversity, sapr...

No studies have evaluated the efficacy of culturing cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) for fungi. Because of the facts that the most common fungi responsible for meningitis grow well in media utilized for routine bacterial cultures and that cryptococcal antigen tests are commonly ordered, the efficacy of routinely performing fungal cultures specifically to recover fungi has been questioned. We examined ...

Bacteria are able to synthesis a wide range of metabolites with fungicidal capabilities. The antagonistic potential of soil bacterial strains (E. coli, Baccillus fortis, B. faragiris, Pseudomonas flourescence and P. malophilia) was assessed by the dual culture technique against some food pathogenic fungi, i.e. Aspergillus flavus, A. niger, Penicillium italicum and P. simplicissmum. The result i...

conclusions the study showed that elevator buttons could lead to transmission of pathogenic bacteria. it is necessary to clean and disinfect elevator buttons daily, especially in departments with high contamination potential such as laboratories, particularly in biological laboratories and pilot plant rooms. methods the study was a across sectional research. samples were taken from elevator but...

Understanding how community structure of Bacteria, Archaea, and Fungi varies as a function of edaphic characteristics is key to elucidating associations between soil ecosystem function and the microbiome that sustains it. In this study, non-managed tropical soils were examined that represented a range of edaphic characteristics, and a comprehensive soil microbiome analysis was done by Illumina ...

BACKGROUND Understanding about the impact of white rot fungi on indigenous bacterial communities, NH4+ and turbidity in digested piggery wastewater, will allow the optimization of wastewater treatment methods and its use as a feasible medium for algal growth. Here, the white rot fungi were inoculated into undiluted and unsterilized digested piggery wastewater under different temperatures and pH...
