background: crimean congo hemorrhagic fever (cchf) is an acute febrile haemorrhagic disease. this study was conducted to ascertain the infection status amongst slaughterhouse workers in iran's north-eastern provinces (razavi and northern and southern khorasan), so that analysis of the results could help clarification of the epidemiology of this disease in the aforementioned provinces and easter...

background: the world health organization (who) declares crimean congo hemorrhagic fe­ver (cchf) endemic in turkey. despite the magnitude of problem, no documented evi­dence exists in turkey, which reveals the aware­ness and practices of the country's adult popula­tion regarding cchf, its spread, symptoms, treatment, and preven­tion. this study was conducted to assess the level of knowledge, at...

The phosphomolybdic acid (PMA) has been used as an adsorbent for the removal of dyes (Methylene blue and Congo red dye) from synthetic aqueous solution. Different factors of the adsorbent, like, contact time, pH of the sorption medium, concentration of the dye solution, were investigated by the batch sorption experiment. The adsorption equilibrium data was best fitted by the Langmuir isotherm m...

The correlation between ICT-supported education system and economic development of a developing country has been documented by several studies (Anderson, 2009; Selwood et al, 2003; and Unwin, 2009). Today’s Information and Communications Technology can significantly and positively impact the educational and economic landscape of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). This paper investigates ho...

Instant adsorption of Congo Red (CR) by a 1D coordination polymer, [(H2L)0.5][Zn(1,2,3-BTA)(H2O)]·2H2O (1·2H2O), leads to the formation of a unique dye composite 1·0.75CR·6H2O, which demonstrates a remarkably enhanced photocurrent response compared to that of its precursor.

Cellulase is the key enzyme in the bio refinery process of producing green chemicals. As cellulase production cost is the major factor in these processes, there is lot of need to isolate the effective producers of cellulase from the natural environment which can degrade the abundantly available lignocellulose materials. Congo red clearing zone assay, gel diffusion assay and dyed congo red filte...

Phytoremediation is an eco-friendly and non destructive method of dye removal from water and soil. In this research study, phytoremediation potential of a macroalgae Chara vulgaris was investigated as a viable biomaterial for biological treatment of congo red in aqueous solution. The effects of parameters such as reaction time, pH, initial dye concentration, temperature and amount of algae on b...

Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever was for the first time recognized in Yugoslavia in 1971. In this paper were presented clinical and laboratory findings of a patient infected with Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever in Kosovo in 1999. The disease was manifested with fever, headache, vomiting, myalgia, abdominal pain, pharyngitis, conjuctival injection, diarrhoea, hypotension, gingival bleeding, skin ...

Only 6 cases with an association of disseminated superficial porokeratosis with dermal amyloid deposits are reported in the literature. We present the case of a 76-year-old woman who presented with a disseminated superficial porokeratosis. Histological examination revealed amyloid deposits in the upper dermis, which were typed with routine HE stains, Congo red stains and anticytokeratin antibod...

1. Congo red injected in vivo together with uric acid gives rise to more intense and diffuse red coloring in rats, especially in the subcutaneous and peri-articular tissues, than is the case in control rats injected simply with dye. 2. Uric add added in vitro to solutions of Congo red or trypan blue increases the speed of diffusion of these dyes, both through gelatin and the animal membranes (d...
