Genetic characterization of extensive drug resistant : an appalling impediment.

Introduction: Acinetobacter baumannii infections are a growing public-health concern. The bacterium's potentiality to acquire resistance to a number of commonly used antibiotics has turned it into a formidable pathogen.

Aims: Molecular characterization of extensive drug resistant (XDR) typing of A.

CRISPR Technology in Gene-Editing-Based Detection and Treatment of SARS-CoV-2.

Outbreak and rapid spread of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) caused by coronavirus acute respiratory syndrome (SARS-CoV-2) caused severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS-CoV-2) that started in Wuhan, and has become a global problem because of the high rate of human-to-human transmission and severe respiratory infections. Because of high prevalence of SARS-CoV-2, which threatens many people worldwide, rapid diagnosis and simple treatment are needed. Genome editing is a nucleic acid-based approach to altering the genome by artificially changes in genetic information and induce irreversible changes in the function of target gene.

Virulence characterization of and its relation with ESBL and AmpC beta-lactamase associated resistance.

Background And Objectives: Trend analysis reveals that has witnessed a steep enhancement in the antibiotic resistance and virulence over the last few decades. The present investigation aimed at a comprehensive approach investigating antibiotic susceptibility including, extended spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) and AmpC β-lactamase (AmpC) resistance and the prevalence of virulence genes among the isolates.

Materials And Methods: Sixty-one isolates were obtained from various clinical infections.

The pathogenesis of Staphylococcus aureus in autoimmune diseases.

Autoimmune disease are defined as the attacks on host tissue by the immune system. Several factors, e.g.

Type-specific human papillomavirus prevalence in cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and cancer in Iran.

In Iran, human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination is not currently included in the national vaccination program and there are no comprehensive approaches to cervical screening program. Regional data on distribution of HPV types in women is important to predict the impact of current HPV vaccines. Although several studies on distribution of HPV types in cervical precancer and cancer have been conducted in Iran, in most of them HPV positive samples were subjected to specific-primer genotyping (mainly 16 and 18), and leaving the other HPV genotypes almost undetermined.
