background: vibrio paraheamoloyticus is one the causative agents of vibriosis with high mortality in farmed fish and shrimp and under predisposing conditions.                                  objectives: this study was aimed to assess the effect of gamma irradiation on the inactivation of v.  paraheamoloyticus under fresh and freeze-dried conditions. methods: vials of 0.5 ml fresh culture of th...

In order to achieve the highest resolution in aberration-corrected (AC) high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) images, high electron doses are required which only a few samples can withstand. In this paper we perform dose-dependent AC-HRTEM image calculations, and study the dependence of the signal-to-noise ratio, atom contrast and resolution on electron dose and sampling. We ...

On the basis of degradation properties of Phanerochaete chroysosporium ME 446 found in white-rot fungi in respect of many organic compounds with toxic, mutagenic and carcinogenic characteristics, the physiological conditions effective for the degradation of heptachlor (1, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 8heptachloro-3a, 4, 7, 7a-tetrahydro-4, 7-methanoindene), an organic chlorine used in insecticides Phanerocha...

The notorious Staphylococcus aureus resistant strains with ever changing resistance patterns have limited treatment options and have led to substantial number of deaths. Almost dried antibiotic pipeline has led us to look into combinations of already approved antibiotics for tackling rising incidence of antibacterial resistance. Recommended use of vancomycin and ceftriaxone together for treatin...

There is controversy about the optimum dose of neostigmine for antagonizing neuromuscular block. We have studied 57 patients undergoing gynaecological surgery to establish a dose-response relationship when neostigmine was given to antagonize atracurium-induced block. Anaesthesia was induced with thiopentone and fentanyl and maintained with nitrous oxide and enflurane in oxygen and neuromuscular...
