Objectives: To assessthe potential role of tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 3 as a staging marker of hepatocellular carcinoma.

Method: The experimental study was conducted at Faculty of Pharmacy, Kafrelsheikh University, Egypt, from December 2020 to March 2022 after approval from the Faculty of Pharmacy, Kafrelsheikh University, Egypt, and comprised male albino rats. The subjects were divided into 4 groups.

Co-existence of NDM-1 and OXA-48 genes in Carbapenem Resistant clinical isolates in Kafrelsheikh, Egypt.

Background: The noteworthy spread of carbapenem-resistant (CR-KP) isolates represents a significant safety threat.

Objective: Determination of the carbapenemase genes incidence among CR-KP clinical isolates in Kafrelsheikh, Egypt.

Methods: A total of 230 isolates were recovered from four hospitals in Kafrelsheikh, Egypt.

Emergence of Imipenem-Resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa Clinical Isolates from Egypt Coharboring VIM and IMP Carbapenemases.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an important human pathogen and the leading cause of nosocomial infections. P. aeruginosa is characterized by massive intrinsic resistance to a multiple classes of antibiotics with carbapenems being the most potent inhibitor of P.
