In this study it has been determined the total phenols percentage of
three Syrian honey types. Then the relation has been studied
between phenols level in these three types of Syrian honey and its
effect on the Escherichia coli which causes many t
ypes of intestinal
and uric infections and causes many diseases as bleeding.
Chemotherapy causes neutropenia and increase susceptibility to infections. Morbidity and mortality due to infections remain serious problem in children with cancer. Decreased serum levels of Mannose-binding lectin ( MBL) may represent a risk factor f
or infections in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia receiving chemotherapy.
The aim of this study was to determine whether low MBL levels is associated with increased risk of infections in Syrian children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
The study has been done at Children University Hospital in Damascus between 2013-2014. This study included 37 children diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) who were candidates for chemotherapy, and the infections were identified depending on patients files. The levels of Mannose-Binding Lectin (MBL) was determined by Enzyme Linked Immuno Sorbent Assay (ELISA).
The result was that MBL serum levels are higher in patients who did not develop infections compared to patients who developed infections, and all patients with low MBL levels developed infections in contrast to patients with normal MBL serum levels.
This research aimsto study the effect of single and mixed infection of Potato Y Virus (PVY) and Cucumber mosaic virus(CMV) on the number of leaves, number of branches, plant height and stem circumference of tomato plants (cv.Elegro and Local). The ex
periment was carried out in 2012 in a greenhouse in Tartous. Results show that the interactions in both varieties to virus infections are different. The mixed infections cause slight and weak effects compared to single infections. This is probably due to the antagonistic relationship between Potato Y virus and Cucumber mosaic virus and their effects on mean number of leaves, mean number of branches, mean height of plants, and mean stem circumference. Tomato plants' stems were (Elegro 106.42, 16.75, 103.58 cm, 4.84cm.; Local 94.42,15, 87.17 cm, 4.59 cm, respectively). Consequently, the timing of mixed infection playsarole in appearance, development and effect on other viruses.
The hyper immuno-globuline E (IgE) syndrome with recurrent infections or
Job syndrome is a rare immunodeficiency characterized by recurrent skin
and pulmonary abscesses and extremely elevated levels of IgE in serum with
eczematous dermatitis. Asso
ciated facial and skeletal features have been
recognized but their frequency is unknown. The genetic basis of this
syndrome is poorly understood.
A microbiological study carried out on a total of ١٣٤ nasal cavity swabs
were aseptically collected from apparently healthy camels, and examined
microbiologically.
The bacterial examination resultes isolation of ١٣ pathogenic and
Potentially path
ogenic bacteria isolates. These bacteria included: Pasteurella
multocida, E. coli, Streptococcus pyogenes, Citrobacter sp., Edwardsiella,
Klebsiella aerogenes, Staphylococcus albus, Enterobacter, Diplococcus
pneumonia, Serratia marcescens, Micrococcus sp., Providencia sp. and
Corynebacterium sp.
