background: failure in the treatment of burn patients infected with pseudomonas aeruginosa could happen as a result of the acquisition of antibiotic resistance, including carbapenems. objectives: the aim of the present study was to investigate the phenotypic and genotypic characteristics of the pseudomonas aeruginosa strains, isolated from burn patients. patients and methods: during a 12 month ...

background and objective: acinetobacter baumannii is an aerobic non-motile gram-negative bacterial pathogen that is resistant to most antibiotics. carbapenems are the most common antibiotics for the treatment of infections caused by this pathogen. mechanisms of antibiotic-resistance in a. baumannii are mainly mediated by efflux pumps-lactamases. the aim of this study was to determine antibiotic...

conclusions molecular epidemiology studies of infectious diseases have been useful when bacterial isolates have been clustered in a period of time and in different geographical regions with variable antibiotic resistance patterns. in spite of high geographical differences and different antibiotic resistant patterns, low genetic diversity among the studied tb isolates may refer to the low rate o...

background and objectives: electric, magnetic and electromagnetic fields can act as stress factors with different effects on biological systems. due to the nutritional and medicinal values, and the increasing electromagnetic radiations, the present study was performed to investigate the effects of the electromagnetic field on the developmental stages and cytotoxic properties of okra. methods: b...

background and objectives: citrobacter freundii is an opportunistic pathogen causing nosocomial infections and resistant to various antibiotics. we aimed to determine the clonal relationship of c. freundii isolates using pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (pfge). materials and methods: fifty clinical isolates of c. freundii were collected from the main hospital in kermanshah. after antibiotic sus...

background: recently, there are increasing concerns and interests about the potential effects of electromagnetic field (emf) on both human and animal health. objective: the goal of this study was to evaluate the harmful effects of 50 hz non-ionizing emf on rat oocytes. materials and methods: in this experimental study 30 rats were randomly taken from laboratory animals and their ags and weights...

background acinetobacter calcoaceticus baumannii (acb) complex are gram-negative opportunistic bacteria with low virulence properties. their resistance to antibiotics has become a matter of concern in hospital infections. objectives the present study aimed to determine the prevalence and antimicrobial susceptibility of acb isolates collected from the nemazee hospital of shiraz. in addition, pul...

The subject of electromagnetic fields is widespread today, including in the medical world. One them therapy fracture healing using Pulsed Electromagnetic Field (PEMF) method by utilizing a magnetic field. Fracture field utilizes Helmholtz coil, which influenced current and amount turns flowing This study conducted literature on PEMF LMHFV methods. A comparison these two methods will show differ...

Interfering electrons in a mesoscopic ring are irradiated with both classical and nonclassical microwaves. The average intensity of the charges is calculated as a function of time and it is found that it depends on the nature of the irradiating electromagnetic field. For various quantum states of the microwaves, the electron autocorrelation function is calculated and it shows that the quantum n...

introduction: the aim of the present study is to investigate the effect of interaperitoneal injection of baclofen (gaba-b agonist) and cgp35348 (gaba-b antagonist) on serum testosterone concentration in aggressive rats exposed to electromagnetic field. methods: fifty five mature male rats weighing 200±20 grams were studied. animals were divided into 2 main groups and four subgroups. main groups...
