Molecular studies on some factors of E. coli isolated from avian products and infants with diarrhea [PDF]
Extraintestinal pathogenic E. coli (ExPEC) are facultative pathogens that are part of the normal human intestinal flora which classified into several types, uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC), neonatal meningitis E. coli (NMEC), sepsis-associated E.

Effects of 5-fluorouracil in nuclear and cellular morphology, proliferation, cell cycle, apoptosis, cytoskeletal and caveolar distribution in primary cultures of smooth muscle cells. [PDF]
Colon cancer is one of the most prevalent types of cancer in the world and is one of the leading causes of cancer death. The anti-metabolite 5- fluorouracil (5-FU) is widely used in the treatment of patients with colon cancer and other cancer types. 5-FU-

Body Size Poorly Predicts Host-Associated Microbial Diversity in Wild Birds
The composition and diversity of avian microbiota are shaped by many factors, including host ecologies and environmental variables. In this study, we examine microbial diversity across 214 bird species sampled in Malawi at five major body sites: blood ...

ISOLATION AND IDENTIFICATION OF AVIAN MYCOPLASMAS IN SAUDI ARABIA [PDF]
Poultry industry is faced during the last years by pro- blems resulting from respiratory infections. Mycoplas- mas are reported by several authors to cause consider- able economic losses (Cahalam,1974).
