In this study, Dunaliella has been isolated in Jun. 2014 from Hoz-e Soltan and Aran-va-Bidgol salt Lakes (Iran). The isolates have been identified morphologically with the aid of simple light and invert microscope after isolation and purification on their specific medium (Moh202). By using molecular techniques such as polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and amplification of 18S rDNA gene primers, f...

Brucellosis is a zoonotic disease transmitted to humans either from animals or from their products.Although brucellosis can be found worldwide, the Mediterranean Basin, South and Central America, EasternEurope, Asia, Africa, the Caribbean, and the Middle East have currently been listed as high-risk regions. Thegenus Brucella is classified in at least nine species. Brucella melitensis is the glo...

Background and Objectives: Annexin is the common name for genes and proteins that were identified as calcium-dependent phospholipid-binding proteins. Recently a more complex set of functions has been recognized for this superfamily of proteins including in vesicle trafficking, cell division, apoptosis, calcium signalling, mineralization, crystal nucleation inside the extracellular organelle...

introduction: streptomyces species are mycelial, aerobic gram-positive bacteria that are isolated from soil and produce a diverse range of antibiotics. streptomyces griseus produces the antibiotic, streptomycin and forms spores even in a liquid culture. the gene cluster for the production of streptomycin antibiotic contains strr gene that encodes strr, a pathway-specific regulator. then, this p...

Rotaviruses group A are the major cause of diarrhea in calves under one month and every year causes enormous economic losses. Serological and molecular techniques can be used for rapid detection of rotaviruses but virus isolation requires specific methods of cell culture and suitable cell lines. In this study, 41 samples were collected from diarrheal calves up to the age of one month, from indu...

Phlebotomus papatasi is an important vector of L. major in Iran. P. papatasi was collected from peridomestic animal shelters, inside and around the houses and also the nearby burrows of the gerbil reservoir hosts, Rhombomys opimus, in several provinces in Iran. Mitochondrial Cytochrome b (Cyt b) of sandflies, which is a maternally-inherited gene marker, was used to see if there is any "isolatio...
