The emergence and spread of multidrug-resistant bacteria is a major public health concern. This study sought to investigate the phenotypic and genotypic characteristics of clinical isolates of ESBL-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae, at University Hospital of Tizi-Ouzou.  Antibiotic susceptibility testing of the strains was carried out by the disc…[Read more]

Influenza A viruses (IAVs) are a major cause of human respiratory tract infections and cause significant disease and mortality. Human IAVs originate from animal viruses that breached the host species barrier. IAV particles contain sialoglycan receptor-binding hemagglutinin (HA) and receptor-destroying neuraminidase (NA) in their envelope. When IAV…[Read more]

Similar behavior is expected for the majority of 2D vdW magnets where higher-order exchange interactions are appreciable.Subseafloor oceanic crust is a vast yet poorly sampled habitat for life. Recent studies suggest that microbial composition in crustal habitats is variable in space and time, but biogeographic patterns are difficult to determine…[Read more]

05) the concentration of the hormone was higher if the baby was a girl (164.3654.45-284.87 pg/mg) than if it was a boy (101.1337.95-193.56 pg/mg). These findings show that the sex of the future baby could be conditioned, among many other variables, by the mother´s stress levels during conception and first weeks of pregnancy. Further research is…[Read more]

The National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) recently published a new strategic vision for the future of human genomics, the product of an extensive, multi-year engagement with numerous research, medical, educational, and public communities. The theme of this 2020 vision-The Forefront of Genomics-reflects NHGRI’s critical role in providing…[Read more]
