background lactoferrin is a multipurpose protein of the transferrin domestic. it is a spherical glycoprotein with a molecular weight of about 80 kda which is widely found in secretory discharges, such as milk, saliva, tear, and nasal secretions. lactoferrin is also found in secondary granules of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (pmn) and is released by some acinar cells. it also shows antibacterial...

        Freshwater crayfish (Astacus leptodactylus) is an important economic fisheries resource of Aras reservoir, Iran. The infection of freshwater crayfish by gram negative and gram positive bacteria are common in natural and cultural environments. These bacteria are considered as secondary disease agents or opportunities. This study was conducted to investigate infes...

Nano structured materials have wide range of applications due to their interesting size-dependent chemical and physical properties compared to particles of size in the range of micrometer. Copper oxide nano materials are of interest on account of their potential uses in many technological fields. In this study  CuO nanoparticles were synthesized via simple sol gel method using basic CuSO4<...

Background: Urinary tract infection is one of the most prevalent infections. Microorganisms causing UTI vary in their susceptibility to antimicrobials due to widespread use of inappropriate and empirical antibiotic therapy. Urinary tract infection (UTI) is also the most common nosocomial infection. Objective: This study was designed to determine the microbiological profile and antimicrobial sus...

BACKGROUND: Indonesia's tropical forest is home to around 80% of the world's medicinal plants. One these Zingiber purpureum, which have traditionally been used treat joint discomfort, common cold, and jaundice. The rhizomes this plant suggested possess antibacterial action in treatment infections. In study, Z. purpureum was screened for activity against 13 bacteria (Gram-positive Gram-negative)...

Background: Patients with Diabetes Mellitus are more prone to Urinary tract infection (UTI) than non-diabetic patients. has certain negative effects on the genital system and increases incidence of urinary in diabetic Design: Record based retrospective study. Methods: Records patients type-II diabetes having symptoms UTI were reviewed from August 2021 January 2022. Result: Out 210 patients, rat...

Infection of a wound is one the most important reasons delaying recovery an injured tissue. In this study, chitosan-based hydrogels were loaded with different concentrations sodium tetrafluoroborate (NaBF4) to fabricate antimicrobial care system. Antimicrobial activity, and cytotoxicity NaBF4, surface morphology, chemical bond structures activity Chitosan:NaBF4 against broad spectrum microorgan...

We isolated a new lytic Pseudomonas aeruginosa phage that requires type IV pili for infection. PA1Ø has a broad bactericidal spectrum, covering Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, and can eradicate biofilm cells. PA1Ø may be developed as a therapeutic agent for biofilm-related mixed infections with P. aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus.
