conclusions the study results showed that stimulation of the american cockroach’s immunity system lead to production of antibacterial proteins and peptides which had inhibitory effect on the bacteria, depending on the bacterial strains and their sensitivity. likely this feature of insects can be used as therapeutic strategies to produce natural antimicrobial compounds against the pathogenic bac...

infective endocarditis is one of the most severe complications of parenteral drug abuse. the outstanding clinical feature of infective endocarditis in intravenous drug abusers is the high incidence of right-sided valve infection, and the tricuspid valve is involved in 60% to 70% of the cases. we herein report a case of isolated pulmonic valve infective endocarditis with a native pulmonary valve.

background: yogurt is one of the most popular food diets with refreshing taste, nutritional, and health benefits. the objective of this study was to investigate the effect of three herbal essential oils (eos) including peppermint, basil, and zataria on viability of the probiotic bacteria in yogurt samples and to evaluate the antimicrobial activities of the produced probiotic yogurts against esc...

background: multidrug resistant enterobacteriaceae which was confined to the hospital environments is now emerging in the domestic food related environments as well. the main objective of the present study was to investigate the prevalence of antibiotic resistant enterobacteriaceae in the domestic food related environments.  methods: resistance to ampicillin, chloramphenicol, ciprofloxacin, gen...

Background: Skin eruption is a disease that it is because of skin necrosis and adolescence and youth depression. The some species of Staphylococcuss are agent of this disease. There isn’t effective drug for curing of this disease. Many of medicinal plants (e.x. Stachys inflata Benth.) have anti- bacterial compounds and they can be used as a drug to cure skin eruption disease. Objective: This r...

plants are rich source of natural products used for centuries to cure various the plant-derived medicines are based upon the premise that they contain natural substances that can promote health and alleviate illness. silver nps represent material, which can be used as a potential antibacterial agent in medical applications and different commercial products due to its biological activity. recent...

background and objectives: bacterial resistance to antibiotics has motivated the researchers to evaluate the novel anti-bac- terial compounds such as some thiazole and imidazole derivatives. thereby, in this work, we investigated the anti-bacterial effects of one new thiazole and two new imidazole derivatives on bacillus cereus , listeria monocytogenes , escherichia coli, salmonella typhimurium...

background and aim: bacterial elimination from root canal system is one of the aims in endodontic treatments, so the addition of antibiotics to sealers can increase their antimicrobial efficacy, as in this study we are determining the in-vitro antimicrobial effect of ah26 and ah plus sealers mixed with amoxicillin, triple antibiotic pastes and nanosilver on enterococcus faecalis. materials and ...
