conclusions to avoid unfair competition and to assure consumers of accurate labeling, using this method is recommended for regulatory agencies. results the limit of detection of cow’s milk in buffalo’s milk, yogurt and cheese is 1, 2 and 4%, respectively. undeclared presence of cow’s milk was detected in 70% of the milk samples, 64% of the yogurt and 52% of the cheese samples. in 10% of the yog...

conclusions species identification of trichophyton is crucially important for epidemiological and phylogenetic purposes and for genotype delineation. rca based on its polymorphisms can be used to generate identification barcodes and as an alternative to dna sequencing; it is a very fast, specific, and economical tool for species identification. results of the 61 putative trichophyton clinical i...

species identification is always important. records of sea urchins and sand dollars species ‎‎(echinodermata, echinoidea) is given from iranian waters. nine species of echinoderms were ‎identified through the study. the species identification was made using morphological ‎characteristics and review of checklist key. nine species were identified here, including ‎echinometra mathaei, prionocidari...

hyalomma and haemaphysalis are two most important genera of ticks (acari: ixodidae). the rapid and accurate identification of field collected specimens is crucial in faunal works, laboratory assays, anti-tick vaccine experiments, etc. the present study was designed to introduce a rapid and more sensitive method for the differentiation of closely related hyalomma and haemaphysalis species namely...

identification  of clinically  significant  nocardia  species  is essential  for the definitive diagnosis, predict antimicrobial susceptibility, epidemiological purposes,  and  for  an  effective  treatment.   conventional   identification   of nocardia species in routine medical laboratories which is based on phenotypic (cellular morphology, colonial characteristics), biochemical and enzymatic...

Background and Purpose: The epidemiological alteration in the distribution of Candida species, as well as the significantly increasing trend of either intrinsic or acquired resistance of some of these fungi highlights the need for a reliable method for the identification of the species. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is one of the methods facilitating the quick and precise identification of Ca...

Background and Purpose :Candidiasis is a widespread fungal infection caused by different Candida species. Rapid identification of Candida species in clinical laboratory is becoming increasingly important since the identification and discrimination of ethological agents for early treatment. We aimed at molecular identification of commonly Candida species isolated from clinical samples by using b...

background: fusarium species are capable of causing a wide range of crop plants infections as well as uncommon hu­man infections. many species of the genus produce mycotoxins, which are responsible for acute or chronic diseases in ani­mals and humans. identification of fusaria to the species level is necessary for biological, epidemiological, pathologi­cal, and toxicological purposes. in this s...
