Objective To evaluate Console Back Cover the accuracy of disc diffusion method for detecting the susceptibility of Neisseria gonorrhoeae to seven surveillance drugs.Methods The agar dilution method and the disc diffusion method were compared in assessing the susceptibility of 60 N.gonorrhoeae strains to ceftriaxone, cefixime, spectinomycin, azithro
Genome-wide association mapping of rust resistance in Aegilops longissima
The rust diseases, including leaf rust caused by Puccinia triticina (Pt), stem rust caused by P.graminis f.sp.tritici (Pgt), and stripe rust caused by P.striiformis f.sp.tritici (Pst), are major limiting factors in wheat production worldwide.Identification of novel sources of rust resistance genes is key to developing cultivars resistant to rapidly
Complete genome sequence of Acinetobacter baumannii XH386 (ST208), a multi-drug resistant bacteria isolated from pediatric hospital in China
Acinetobacter baumannii is an important bacterium that emerged as a significant nosocomial pathogen worldwide.The rise of A.baumannii was due to its multi-drug resistance (MDR), while it 6.34 was difficult to treat multi-drug resistant A.baumannii with antibiotics, especially in pediatric patients for the therapeutic options with antibiotics were q
Study of the impact of consanguinity on abortion and mortality in the population of Beni Abbes (southwestern Algeria)
Abstract Background Despite the numerous studies confirming the involvement of consanguinity in health problems, some populations around the world continue to practice this marital behavior.Algeria, like many Arab-Muslim countries, has very high consanguinity rates that require studies to measure the effects on public health.This study aims to esti
Evaluation of novel radiation protection devices during radiologically guided interventions
Abstract Background In radiologically guided interventions, medical practitioners are subjected to radiation exposure, which may lead to radiation-induced diseases.In this study, novel radiation shields for the head and neck were evaluated for their potential to reduce radiation exposure.Method An anthropomorphic phantom was exposed on its left sid
