Two important criteria of wireless body area networks (WBANs) are low power consumption and delay. These can be met by designing efficient medium access control (MAC) protocols. In this paper, two TDMA-based MAC protocols proposed. The first protocol, TM–MAC makes use only a main radio. second proposed TWM–MAC WUR alongside the compared with different categories standard it is shown that they o...

UNLABELLED The distribution of resistance to ampicillin, chloramphenicol, sulfonamides, tetracycline, and streptomycin among coliform in the Gomti river water samples was investigated. The coliform populations were isolated on Mac Conky and eosin methylene blue (EMB) agar plates supplemented with antibiotics. The incidence of resistance among the coliform population varied considerably in diffe...

Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) is capable of invading not only macrophages (Mphis) but also type II pneumocytes. In this study, we compared the antimicrobial activities of fluoroquinolones, including gatifloxacin, sitafloxacin and levofloxacin, against the MTB replication in the Mono Mac 6 human Mphi cell line (MM6-Mphis) and the A-549 human type II alveolar epithelial cell line (A-549 cells)...
