The present study was conducted to determine the molecular characterization of nucleoprotein (N) gene segment of the rabies virus (RV) in Sultanate of Oman. A portion of nucleotide sequence of N gene was amplified from the brains of 4 rabid animals (two goats, one sheep, and one camel) collected during 2011 to 2012, through reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The nucleotide sequences of the gene were subjected to molecular and phylogenic analysis. The phylogenic analysis was performed ...

The isotherms were measured at 23, 40 and 60 °C using an isopiestic method and they were treated with appropriate models available in the literature. The state diagram was developed using freezing points, as derived by the cooling curve method, and glass transition temperatures were measured by dynamic oscillation on shear. The limited ...

There are currently no reliable epidemiological data for estimating the burden of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) in Oman.
