Salmonella carriage is an insidious problem for the poultry industry. While most Salmonella serotypes are avirulent in poultry, these bacteria can contaminate chicken meat during processing, leading to one of the most important food safety hazards. In this study, we examined the anti-Salmonella effects of Diamond V Original XPC™ (XPC) included in the finisher diet fed to commercial broilers. On...

The notion of (m,n)-ideals of semigroups was introduced by Lajos [13, 14]. Later (m,n) quasi-ideals and (m,n) bi-ideals and generalized (m,n) bi-ideals were studied in various algebraic structures. The notion of a rough set was originally proposed by Pawlak [16] as a formal tool for modeling and processing incomplete information in information systems. Some authors have studied the algebraic pr...

In recent years, feminists in the United States have consistently advocated for the appointment of more female justices to the Supreme Court. Given the records of Justices O'Connor and Ginsburg on the Court and broader empirical findings below the Supreme Court level showing a relationship between a judge's gender and her voting behavior, feminists have argued that, from a feminist perspective,...

Epithelial cells that line the human intestinal mucosa constitute the initial sites of host invasion by bacterial pathogens. A number of bacteria, such as Salmonella and Yersinia spp., have been shown to disrupt the integrity of the epithelial barrier, although little is known about the mechanisms underlying that effect. We found that polarized MDCK-1 epithelial cells infected with invasive Sal...

Case 1 A newborn baby was admitted to hospital at the age of 23 days old with fever of unknown origin up to 39 ̊C. The female newborn was born by a G2P2 healthy mother by caesarean section at 40 week’s gestation in a local clinic and weighed 3600 gm. The perinatal examination was unremarkable. Delivery course was smooth. Septic workup was arranged but no definite pathogen was identified. On phys...

Background: Salmonella spp. is one of the most common pathogens associated with fresh produce related foodborne illness. This study aimed to determine Salmonella spp. contamination level in betel leaf, internalization potential and possible decontamination process. Results: A total of 77% betel leaf sample collected from local market was found to be contaminated with Salmonella spp. Of all the ...

OBJECTIVES The relationship between quinolone resistance acquisition and invasion impairment has been studied in some Salmonella enterica serovars. However, little information has been reported regarding the invasive human-restricted pathogen Salmonella Typhi. The aim of this study was to investigate the molecular mechanisms of quinolone resistance acquisition and its impact on virulence in thi...

Radiol Bras. 2015 Nov/Dez;48(6):399–403 402 http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/0100-3984.2015.0074 tumors are constituted of plasmacytoid cells, presenting malignant degeneration and producing a specific immunoglobulin molecule. The incidence of EMP is higher in men than in women, at a 3–4:1 ratio, most frequently occurring around the age of 50– 60. It is estimated that such tumor represents 2–4% of pla...

A 54-year-old woman presented with left proptosis, chemosis, ophthalmoplegia, and tinnitus in March 1989. Angiography demonstrated a left cavernous DA VF. The feeding arteries from the left external carotid artery were embolized. Her symptoms were relieved for a while but soon recurred . On May 2, she was referred to us for treatment. Angiography revealed that all the branches of the left exter...
