Optimization And Biodegradation Of Feather Waste

Feathers are by-product waste of poultry processing plant and produced in large amount. Waste feathers from poultry were not a major concern for the environment or for the plants and poultry farms. But with the increasing production of poultry which might be accompanied with an increase in feather waste. In this study, feather-degrading bacteria and the production of keratinolytic and proteolytic enzymes by these organisms was investigated.

Ventilator Associated Pneumonia Prevention: Cypriot Icu Nurses Knowledge

Ventilator Associated Pneumonia is pneumonia which occurs in patients receiving mechanical ventilation. The aim of the study was to explore knowledge of 200 Cypriot Intensive Care Nurses working in 7 public Hospitals across Cyprus, regarding its prevention through a validated questionnaire. The pass rate on the questionnaire was 6% and the fail rate 94%. The majority of the nurses admitted that they do not have sufficient knowledge regarding the VAP prevention.

Aspecific Detection And Differentiation Between Anaplasmaovis And Anaplasmamarginale Using A Msp1 Α Polymerase Chain Reaction Assay

Blood parasite constituent a major problem in goat breeding due to severe economic losses and lowered vitality which lead to a decrease of animal production and increase the susceptibility to bacterial and viral infections. The only common feature between these diseases is that they can all be transmitted by ticks. The objective of the present study was to determine the prevalence of Anaplasmosis in Iraq goats of Baghdad city and differentiation between Anaplasmaovis and Anaplasmamarginale by using PCR and PCR-RFLP.

Photodegradation Studies Of Mn Doped Cdse Qds On Brilliant Green Dye Under Sunlight Irradiation

The CdSe QDs doped with Mn (5%) ions was synthesized by chemical precipitation method using the aqueous route. The prepared QDs were characterized by XRD and UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy. XRD results show that the prepared samples were in zinc blende cubic phase. In UVVis studies, the absorption spectra of the prepared samples were strongly blue shifted with respect to their bulk counterpart due to quantum confinement effect.
