Constructed wetlands (CWs) are affordable and reliable green technologies for the treatment of various types wastewater. Compared to conventional systems, CWs offer an environmentally friendly approach, low cost, have fewer operational maintenance requirements, a high potential being applied in developing countries, particularly small rural communities. However, sustainable management successful application these systems remain challenge. Therefore, after briefly providing basic information...
Background Lupus nephritis (LN) is the most common severe manifestation of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) that can involve all kidney components. The International Society Nephrology/Renal Pathology (ISN/RPS) 2003 classification only focuses on glomerular involvement, although tubulointerstitial inflammation (TI) a better predictor renal failure. Objective To determine association non-albumin proteinuria (NAP) and severity in patients. Methods This cross-sectional study was carried out...
Background: Acinetobacter baumannii is an important opportunistic pathogen that causes serious nosocomial infections. Its ability to adhere surfaces, forming biofilms, acquiring genetic materials from unrelated genera making it a dangerous organism causing high morbidity and mortality. Objective: The goal of this study was isolate identify various samples the pattern antibiotic resistance. Methodology: This cross-sectional conducted in Department Microbiology Dhaka Medical College, Dhaka,...
Background: Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) has become a major concern for public health. Compared to infections caused by methicillin-susceptible (MSSA), MRSA causes severe with increased morbidity and mortality also places large economic pressure on our health care sector. Objective: The purpose of the present study was determine prevalence in different clinical samples isolated from admitted patients tertiary hospital, Bangladesh. Methodology: This cross-sectional...
<i>Acinetobacter baumannii</i> is one of the most significant threats to global public health with a seemingly limitless capacity for antimicrobial resistance. Developing preventive vaccines combat these pathogens can provide long-term protective immunity. This study was conducted evaluate specific protein against which antibody produced in serum and splenic cell culture supernatant after vaccination mice. The vaccine used formaldehyde-inactivated whole-cell...
A growing incidence of pathogens producing carbapenemases has been observed in many countries including Bangladesh. The present study was carried out to determine the presence carbapenemase producers among uropathogens. total 138 Gram-negative uropathogens were isolated and identified by conventional methods screened for production using imipenem discs. Phenotypic identification done double disc synergy test, combined assay, modified Hodge test. minimum inhibitory concentration determined...
A new direct agglutination test (DAT) for use with urine samples the diagnosis of visceral leishmaniasis (VL) has been developed and compared conventional DAT serum our previously reported enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) (urine ELISA). The DAT, in which anti-human IgG was used as enhancing antibody, tested from 75 VL patients 225 non-VL healthy people. sensitivity (90.7%), almost same that (91.0%) ELISA (93.3%). specificity (96.4%) nearly identical (97.3%). urine-based several...
We conducted a seroprevalence study and exposure survey of healthcare workers to assess the risk nosocomial transmission Nipah virus during an outbreak in Bangladesh 2004. No evidence recent infection was detected despite substantial exposures minimal use personal protective equipment.
Introduction: New Delhi metallo-beta-lactamse-1 (NDM-1) producing superbugs create a global public health problem because of their resistance to most antibiotics. This study was conducted determine the presence MBL producers, including NDM-1 in Bangladesh, along with antimicrobial patterns these organisms. Methodology: Thirty-five isolates resistant imipenem by disk diffusion technique were investigated for production. Minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) determined agar dilution method....
Context: Infection caused by extended-spectrum beta-lactamases (ESBL) producing organism is a major problem regarding antibiotic resistance. Aims: The aim of this study was to find out the antibiogram ESBL organisms isolated from various samples. Settings and Design: This cross-sectional carried in Department Microbiology Tertiary Care Hospital, Dhaka, Bangladesh January June 2014. Subjects Methods: One Hundred seventy-nine Gram-negative detected phenotypically double-disc synergy test were...
To observe the prevalence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), vancomycin-resistant S. (VRSA), and Panton-Valentine leukocidin (PVL)-positive aureus, this study was carried out in a tertiary care hospital Dhaka, Bangladesh. strains were recovered from 200 postoperative wound swab samples patients hospitalized Dhaka Medical College Hospital between July 2011 June 2012. Methicillin resistance determined by oxacillin cefoxitin disc diffusion method, minimum inhibitory...
A diagnostic method has been developed to detect anti-Leishmania donovani immunoglobulin G (IgG) in urine by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). In measuring anti-L. IgG, IgA, and IgM urine, the performed best detection of IgG. The sensitivity specificity were determined with panels samples from 62 visceral leishmaniasis (VL) patients, 59 healthy controls areas endemicity, 53 nonendemicity, malaria 13 tuberculosis 23 cutaneous 7 patients other diseases. Using L. promastigote crude...
The present study was undertaken to establish the efficacy of acridine orange staining for diagnosis Bacterial Vaginosis (BV) and association Gardnerella Vaginalis with BV. Two hundred sexually active females in age group 15-45 years, vaginal discharge itching, were selected study. A detailed history a thorough clinical examination all cases done. After making BV by Amsels criteria, also carried out Acridine staining, Gram stain, Nugent criteria isolation Gard. vaginalis from fluid. Out 200...
H. pylori infection occurs worldwide. Approximately 50% of the world population is infected with this organism. A cross-sectional study was conducted on 81 dyspeptic patients attending at Dhaka Medical College Hospital, for diagnostic endoscopy. measured by three invasive methods: culture, rapid urease test & histopathology. Among maximum (34.57%) were in 21-30 years age group, bearing male female ratio 1: 92.86. Forty four (54.32%) out culture positive, 61 (75.31%) positive and 62...
