OBJECTIVE To evaluate the outcome in denovo AML patients treated with different remission induction and consolidation chemotherapy regimens in our population. METHODS A retrospective study on acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) patients was carried out at Armed Forces Bone Marrow Transplant Centre Rawalpindi Pakistan between July 2001 and June 2006. During 5 years period 46 patients received treatm...

Despite of a high abundance antibiotics, heavy metals, and organic matters detected in the Saigon River Ho Chi Minh City, level spread antibiotic resistance genes this river are poorly understood. In study, total 10 (ARGs), including conferring to aminoglycosides (aac(6)-Ib-cr), β-lactam antibiotics (blaCTX-M, blaSHV, blaTEM), quinolones (qnrA, qnrB), sulfonamides (sul1, sul2), trimethoprim (df...

qnr, aac(6')-Ib-cr, qepA, and oqxAB genes were detected in 5.7%, 4.9%, 2.6%, and 20.2% of 1,022 Escherichia coli isolates from humans, animals, and the environment, respectively, collected between 1993 and 2010 in China. The prevalence of oqxAB in porcine isolates (51.0%) was significantly higher than that in other isolates. This is the first report of oqxAB-positive isolates from ducks and gee...

SAE 1020 is a widely used plain carbon steel, as mortar reinforcement in buildings and small machine parts. But aside from good mechanical properties, its surface suffer from severe corrosion and high wear rate, due to modest hardness. Chromium (Cr) in excess of 12% in Fe alloys renders them resistant to several corrosive attacks. So we tried to introduce Cr in such amounts into the surface of ...

A total of 225 isolates of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium from food-producing animals collected between 2003 and 2007 were examined for the prevalence of plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance (PMQR) determinants, namely qnrA, qnrB, qnrC, qnrD, qnrS, qepA and aac(6')Ib-cr, in Japan. Two isolates (0.8%) of S. Typhimurium DT104 from different dairy cows on a single farm in 2006 and 2007 w...

The purpose of this study was to determine the prevalence and molecular characterization of plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance (PMQR) genes (qnrA, qnrB, qnrS, aac(6')-Ib-cr, and qepA) among ESBL-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae isolates in Kashan, Iran. A total of 185 K. pneumoniae isolates were tested for quinolone resistance and ESBL-producing using the disk diffusion method and double disk...
