Staphylococcus aureus is a widespread, hospital- and community-acquired pathogen, many strains of which are antibiotic resistant. It causes diverse diseases, ranging from local to systemic infection, affects both the skin internal organs, including heart, lungs, bones, brain.

The study of the effect on the internal organs of mice of the application of carcinogenic agents to the skin has occupied our attention during recent years, a preliminary analysis of findings in several thousand animals having already been published (1). Most of these earlier experiments were performed with the primary object of testing the reaction of the skin to various carcinogenic agents. M...

The Fifth International Conference on Pediatric Mechanical Circulatory Support Systems and Pediatric Cardiopulmonary Perfusion was held in conjunction with the Joint Congress of the American Society for Artificial Internal Organs (ASAIO) 55th Annual Conference and the International Federation for Artificial Organs (IFAO) at the Hilton Anatole Dallas Hotel, Dallas, TX, May 27–30, 2009. Approxima...

AIM The aim of the study was to examine pathology and the distribution pattern of Newcastle disease virus (NDV) in internal organs of chickens from a field case using immunohistochemical staining. MATERIALS AND METHODS 10 groups of broiler, layer, and domestic chicken were collected from necropsy room Division of Pathology, Bogor Agricultural University. These chickens were originated from We...

Antibiotic resistance and microbiota within edible snow crabs are important for the Chionoecetes (snow crab) fishing industry. We investigated these parameters using culture methods and antibiotic susceptibility tests with six internal organs from three species of Chionoecetes. Each sample revealed many unexpected microbial species within Chionoecetes internal organs. On the basis of 16S rRNA s...

Gulf toadfish were exposed to sublethal levels of copper (12.8 or 55.2 microM) for 30 days. Drinking in control fish averaged 1 ml kg(-1)h(-1) but exposure to 55.2 microM copper resulted in a complex biophasic pattern with initial (3 h and 1 day) inhibition of drinking rate, followed by an elevation of drinking rate from day 3 onwards. Drinking led to copper accumulation in the intestinal fluid...

Objective. To explore the area and sensitization variance of acupoint when internal organs are under pathological condition. To observe quantity-effect variance of subnucleus reticularis dorsalis (SRD) to electroacupuncture under both physiological and pathological conditions. To explain medulla oblongata mechanism of acupoint sensitization. Method. Mustard oil was imported into colon and rectu...
