Identification of bacteria-regulated mechanisms for the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) and development of upconverting nanoparticle (UCNP) luminescence imaging for the monitoring of gut bacteria
… disease (IBD) is a chronic inflammatory state of the gastrointestinal tract, including two inflammatory conditions Crohn’s disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC). The environment, the gut microbiota, the genetic make-up and the immune response are believed to contribute to the aetiology of …

Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (libs): an innovative tool for studying bacteria
… rapidly determining the elemental composition of samples with minimal or no sample preparation. In this dissertation, I will describe the benefits of using LIBS for the rapid discrimination and identification of bacteria (both pathogenic and non-pathogenic) based on the relative concentration …

Antimicrobial resistance patterns of foodborne bacterial isolates from HIV/AIDS patients in Lusaka, Zambia.
… can pose a greater human health risk as a result of potential treatment failure, loss of treatment options and increased likelihood of severity of disease. Therefore, this study was designed to determine the antimicrobial drug resistance profile of foodborne bacterial isolates among HIV/AIDS …

Lab-on-a-Chip Integration of Size-based Separation Techniques for Isolation of Bacteria from Blood
… for maximizing sensitivity and specificity of detection and for ensuring reliability of assay readout. In general, sample preparation typically involves isolating and concentrating a population of target molecules, cells, or particles together with the removal of undesired components from …

Characterization of the vaginal microflora
The microbial flora of the vagina affects the health of women, their fetuses, and newborns. Conventional culture methods failed to detect some fastidious vaginal bacteria, leading to an incomplete picture of the diversity of the vaginal microflora. DNA-based identification methods have facilitated …

Comparison of Micrscan Identification and Susceptibility Testing Methods for Streptococcus Dysgalactiae to Conventional Biochemical Reactions and Kirby-Bauer Susceptibility Testing Methods
A total of 100 isolates of Streptococcus dysgalact iae from bovine mastitis infections was used to evaluate and compare the biochemical reactions of the gram positive Combo Type 6 panel on the MicroScan autoSCANR system to a conventional procedure for identification of streptococci. Of the 100 …

Identification of The Causative Bacteria In Musculoskeletal Infections Using 16S Rdna - Denaturing Gradient Gel Electrophoresis Analysis
Musculoskeletal infections are infections of the bone and surrounding tissues. They are currently diagnosed based on culture analysis, which is the gold standard for pathogen identification. However, these clinical laboratory methods are frequently inadequate for the identification of the causative …

Characterization of Extremophilic Bacteria for Potential in the Biofuel and Bioprocess Industries
… bioprocesses are constrained by the availability of microbes that are optimized for harsh bioprocess conditions. Over 500 soil and sediment samples collected from 77 saline and/or thermal sites in the continental United States, Hawaii, and Puerto Rico were used to inoculate fermentations in an …

Isolation of Bacterial pathogens from dead- in- shell Chicken embryos from local Hatcheries
… in Zambia, but no information is available on bacterial association with dead-in-shell mortality in hatcheries. Hence investigation into three commercial hatcheries of Zambia was made to find out the role of bacterial pathogens in embryonic mortality and hatchability. These hatcheries had an …

The damaged mucosal barrier in intestinal inflammation: interaction with therapeutic bacteria and roles for metallothioneins as immunomodulators
Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) are a group of chronic, relapsing, immunologically-mediated disorders of the intestine, the main forms being Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis. Recent studies underscore the importance of the damaged epithelial barrier and the dysregulated innate immune system …
