Background and Aims: Confirmation of correct endotracheal tube placement is essential immediately after intubation for general anaesthesia. In this study, we have compared upper airway ultrasonography (USG) with reference to capnography for rapid confirmation of endotracheal tube placement after general anaesthesia. Methods: A prospective, single centre, observational study was conducted on 100 patients requiring tracheal intubation for general anaesthesia. Both capnography and upper airway USG were ...

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are gaining importance as effective therapeutic alternatives to conventional antibiotics. Recently we have shown that a set of nine synthetic antimicrobial peptides, four originating from thrombin-induced human platelet-derived antimicrobial proteins named PD1–PD4 and five synthetic repeats of arginine-tryptophan (RW) repeats (RW1-5) demonstrate antibacterial activity in plasma and platelets. Using WR strain of vaccinia virus (VV) as a model virus for enveloped virus in ...

Peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) plants were regenerated from embryo axes on four basal media: Murashige and Skoog (MS), Gamborg (B5), Potato Extract (PE) and Linsmaier and Skoog (LS). MS basal medium was found superior to others in supporting the development of a high frequency of plantlets and in increasing the number of roots per plantlet. Plants were also regenerated from cotyledon segments on MS medium supplemented with α-naphthalenacetic acid (NAA) and/or 6-benzyladenine (BA). On MS medium, 1 mg/l of ...

BACKGROUND: A single cost‐effective pathogen inactivation approach would help to improve the safety of our nation's blood supply. Several methods and technologies are currently being studied to help reduce bacterial contamination of blood components. There is clearly need for simple and easy‐to‐use pathogen inactivation techniques specific to plasma, platelets (PLTs), and red blood cells. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS: In this report, we introduce a novel proof of concept: using known therapeutic antimicrobial ...

Bacterial contamination of blood components such as ex vivo-stored platelets is a major safety risk in transfusion medicine. We have recently shown that synthetic antimicrobial peptides named PD1-PD4 derived from the thrombin-induced human platelet-derived antimicrobial proteins, and repeats of Arg-Trp (RW1-RW5) demonstrate microbicidal activity against selected bacteria and viruses. In the present study, we selected PD3, PD4, RW2, RW3 and RW4 and evaluated each individual peptide and their various ...

Bacillus anthracis is a Gram-positive, spore-forming bacterium representing the etiological agent of acute infectious disease anthrax, a lethal but rare disease of animals and humans in nature. With recent use of anthrax as a bioweapon, a number of techniques have been recently developed and evaluated to facilitate its rapid detection of B. anthracis in the environment as well as in point-of-care settings for humans suspected of exposure to the pathogen. Complex laboratory methods for B. anthracis ...

Emergence of drug resistant strains to currently available antibiotics has resulted in the quest for novel antimicrobial agents. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are receiving attention as alternatives to antibiotics. In this study, we used phage-display random peptide library to identify peptides binding to the cell surface of E. coli. The peptide with sequence RLLFRKIRRLKR (EC5) bound to the cell surface of E. coli and exhibited certain features common to AMPs and was rich in Arginine and Lysine residues. ...

Identification of short peptides that serve as specific ligands to biological materials such as microbial cell surfaces has major implications in better understanding the molecular recognition of cell surfaces. In this study we screened a commercially available random phage-display library against Staphylococcus aureus cells and identified peptides specifically binding to the bacteria. A synthetic peptide (SA5-1) representing the consensus sequence (VPHNPGLISLQG) of the bacteria-binding peptide was ...

The virus is culturable in various cells of human origin like the lymphocytes, NK cells, neuronal cells, and prostate cell lines.

Recent use of Bacillus anthracis as a bioweapon has highlighted the need for a sensitive monitoring system. Current bacterial detection tests use antibodies as bio-molecular recognition elements which have limitations with regard to time, specificity and sensitivity, creating the need for new and improved cost-effective high-affinity detection probes. In this study, we screened a commercially available bacteriophage-displayed random peptide library using Bacillus cereus 4342 cells as bait to identify ...

Unlike red cells, platelet concentrates (PC) are stored for up to 5 days at room temperature after collection, which is conducive for bacterial growth. In 42% of the sepsis cases following PCs, the most common bacterial contaminant is Staphylococcus spp. Timely detection of these contaminated units is ...

Abstract Microbial contamination of blood and blood products remains a major concern in transfusion medicine. Detection of bacterial contamination has been traditionally carried out by inoculating the contaminated blood/blood products into a liquid or solid nutrient medium followed by 18–24 h incubation period to observe any bacterial colony formation (growth). Although this technique is highly sensitive and specific, the test requires at least 24 hours for accurate diagnosis, which is a limitation ...
