However, azole resistance is an emerging problem reported worldwide in Aspergillus infection mainly caused by A.fumigatus . Increase azole resistance in A.fumigatus has reported with treatment failure and become a significant challenge in effective management of aspergillosis. Aim: The aim of this study is to investigate the triazole-resistant of A. fumigatus and underlying MDR pump genes in viable clinical isolates which obtained from patients suffering pulmonary infections in Thi-Qar province. Methods: The conventional Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) was used to confirm antifungal resistance by detecting the presence of MDR pump genes ( MDR3 and MDR4 ). Results: The results of using this technique showed that A. fumigatus isolates were positive to MDR pump genes with 90% and 96% for MDR3 and MDR4 genes, respectively. Conclusions: Our study revealed that the MDR pump genes are predominant in azole resistance isolates. Furthermore, PCR was proven to be highly effective method for identifying these genes.","PeriodicalId":152061,"journal":{"name":"University of Thi-Qar Journal of Medicine","volume":"615 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125454605","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Side to side anastomosis was carried out for most patients and the preferred site was just above the wrist joint on the lateral aspect of forearm between the radial artery and a nearby superficial vein which was mostly the cephalic vein or one of it's tributaries.

Abstract Objectives: To evaluate the antimicrobial activity of the aqueous methanolic extract was given by the leaves of Eucalyptus sp . growing in Thi-Qar Province, south of Iraq. Additionally, to detect the compounds within the extract by using the technique of gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Methodology: The healthy leaves of Eucalyptus sp . were collected, washed with tap water then by distilled water, dried, and pulverized through using a small mill to make the dried leaves as a powder. The leaves powder was extracted by absolute petroleum ether then aqueous methanol (80%) for obtaining a sticky crude extract of the aqueous methanol filtrate. The crude extract was tested against some microbial pathogens as well as analysis of the extract using the technique of GC-MS and phytochemical tests. Results: The current study showed the antimicrobial activity of the crude aqueous methanolic extract obtained from Leaves of Eucalyptus sp . by which 40000 µg∕ml of the extract exhibited inhibition zones around Staphylococcus aureus , Streptococcus mutans , Escherichia coli , and Klebsiella sp. besides Candida albicans that the inhibition zones were measured to be 30, 27, 26, 30, and 38 mm respectively. The chemical tests appeared the crude extract containsalkaloids, glycosides, flavonoids, tannins, andsaponin glycosides. GC-MS analysis detected constituents of the diethyl phthalate, benzene,1,1'-(1,2-cyclobutanediyl)bis-trans-,diisoctyladipate, and 2-methyl-7-phenylindole. Conclusion: The present study concluded that the leaves of Eucalyptus sp . possess the bioactive products which are needed to be separatedas the pure compoundsby using techniques of chromatography in order to separately tested in vitro and in vivo , then application of spectrometry techniques for characterization of their chemical structure. Finally, these compounds can be used to treat diseasesas drugs in hospitals.","PeriodicalId":152061,"journal":{"name":"University of Thi-Qar Journal of Medicine","volume":"117 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-08-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128944185","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
