Amplification and in silico Study of Plasmodium vivax and Plasmodium falciparum LDH Gene
Abstract: Several arsenal as well as quinolone drugs are available for treatment of malaria; still it remains a worldwide public health problem. Malarial parasite quickly develops resistance under selective drug pressure. Hence, we require an array of new drugs for malaria treatment. Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) is an essential enzyme for Plasmodia as they lack functional Krebs cycle in some stages of their lifecycle and thereby prove to be good targets for …

Susceptibility Patterns of ESBL Positive Uropathogenic Escherichia coli to CLSI Recommended Group Drugs for Enterobacteriaceae
Abstract: Bacterial pathogens causing acute infections are increasingly exhibiting resistance to the commonly used antibiotics and have thus become a great threat to public health. The failure of empirical therapy is frequently observed, even in community-acquired urinary tract infections. We, therefore, conducted a study in 2009-10 to find out what proportion of urinary tract infections with Escherichia coli were caused by ESBL producers, the assessment susceptibility pattern of ESBL positive and …
