The reality of the use of growth hormones in fish (Rui (), Catla (), and Monosex Tilapia () production.

The unobservable use of hormones in fish production is becoming an alarming issue worldwide. To reveal the fact in Bangladesh, 144 fish samples (rui (), catla (), and monosex tilapia ()) were collected from different fish farms and markets of Mymensingh district. The market samples had two sources (Mymensingh and Rajshahi district).

Pesticides in vegetable production in Bangladesh: A systemic review of contamination levels and associated health risks in the last decade.

This paper reviewed the published data on the levels of different pesticide residues in vegetables (tomato, eggplant, beans, gourds, cauliflower, cabbage, cucumber, potato, carrot, onion, red chilli, red amaranth, lady's finger, spinach, coriander, and lettuce) from Bangladesh in the last decade. Vegetable production in Bangladesh has increased tremendously (37.63%) compared to the last decades, along with its pesticide use.

Prevalence and Antifungal Susceptibility of Clinically Relevant Species, Identification of and in Bangladesh.

species are major fungal pathogens in humans. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of individual species and their susceptibility to antifungal drugs among clinical isolates in a tertiary care hospital in Bangladesh. During a 10-month period in 2021, high vaginal swabs (HVSs), blood, and aural swabs were collected from 360 patients.

Drug Resistance Determinants in Clinical Isolates of in Bangladesh: Identification of Oxazolidinone Resistance Gene in ST59 and ST902 Lineages.

is one of the major causes of urinary tract infection, showing acquired resistance to various classes of antimicrobials. The objective of this study was to determine the prevalence of drug resistance and its genetic determinants for clinical isolates in north-central Bangladesh. Among a total of 210 isolates, isolated from urine, the resistance rates to erythromycin, levofloxacin, and gentamicin (high level) were 85.
