Students in most cases are living in densely populated hostels with poor sanitary conditions. This coupled with poor hygienic practices constitute pre-disposing factors. This study investigates the carriage rate and antibiotic resistance profile of Salmonella among students in a tertiary institution who had suffered gastroenteritis and typhoid fever within one year of infection. Seventy four (74) stool samples were obtained from students in the university. Isolates were identified using standard methods, subjected to antimicrobial susceptibility by disc diffusion method. The incidence of the infection was found to be highest among participants of 20 - 24 years age group. Fifty-one (51) faecal samples were positive for enteric pathogens. Six (11.76%) Salmonella species were isolated from stool culture and all were Salmonella paratyphi B serotype. All the Salmonella paratyphi B showed hundred percent (100%) resistance to Ceftazidime, Ampicillin, Amoxicillin clavulanic acid and Cefuroxime but were susceptible to Ofloxacin and Ciprofloxacin. High carriage of Salmonella observed from this study calls for proactive action since most of the isolates were resistance to commonly prescribed antibiotic drugs.","PeriodicalId":92670,"journal":{"name":"Journal of human virology & retrovirology","volume":"69 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67075706","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}

These bacterial indicators of faecal contamination are used because of the assumption that they have the same behaviour in the water as enteric pathogens, which is not true with regards to viruses. Therefore, there is need for a supplementary viral indicator or to directly detect viruses from water. Detection of viruses in water is complicated because of occurrence of viruses in low numbers. There is need for concentration of the viruses from large volumes water to aliquots that can be used in PCR or cell culture. We present the adsorption-elution techniques for the recovery and concentration of enteric viruses from water and subsequent detection by quantitative real time RT-PCR/PCR.","PeriodicalId":92670,"journal":{"name":"Journal of human virology & retrovirology","volume":"3 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67075697","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}

Dengue virus circulates in most tropical and subtropical regions or the world with 50–100 million human cases annually. Dengue viruses have four known serotypes designated as DENV-1, DENV-2, DENV-3, and DENV-4, with each serotype can cause full spectrum of sign and symptoms associated with DF and DHF. Despite the threat of the dengue virus studies of nucleotide divergence among the different serotypes has largely been limited to a single gene. This lack of basic knowledge of viral diversity severely limits vaccine and anti-viral therapy development efforts. Previously core and pre membrane genes of Dengue have been used for phylogenetic analysis. We used NS3 gene of dengue virus, which is a conserved region of the dengue virus 2 to study the phylogeny of dengue among Philippine, Vietnam, Thailand, Japan, China, Singapore, Sri Lanka and Taiwan. Phylogenetic Analysis revealed that serotypes of Singapore, Sri Lanka, China, USA and Taiwan are likely ancestors. Serotypes of Thailand occupy an intermediate position and serotypes of Japan, Philippine and Vietnam are descendant from serotypes of Thailand.","PeriodicalId":92670,"journal":{"name":"Journal of human virology & retrovirology","volume":"3 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67075655","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}

In the United States, approximately 80,000 (6 percent) of known cases of HIV are 50 years of age and older and about 11 percent of all US cases of AIDS are in this age group. AIDS has been identified as the 15th leading cause of death in those over 65 years of age in the United States similar to other developed countries of the world. UNAIDS and WHO have estimated that out of the 40 million people living with HIV/AIDS in the world, approximately 2.8 million were 50 years and older. As treated HIV-infected patients live longer and the number of new HIV diagnoses in older patients rise, clinicians need to be aware of these trends and become familiar with the management of HIV infection in the older patients. Long-term treated HIV infected patients remain at higher than expected risk for cardiovascular disease, cancer, osteoporosis, and other diseases along with a number of complications typically associated with aging. However, additional research is needed to generate deeper insights regarding mutual impacts of HIV infection and aging in order to develop and implement effective prevention measures for safe antiretroviral therapy in the older HIV-infected patient. No guidelines are available as on date to specifically address the needs of the elderly HIV-infected patient. This article illustrates the recent updates on current global scenario of HIV-AIDS, aging, complications due to HIV infection and application of antiretroviral treatment (ART), aging and medical management strategies which might be useful for health care agencies and policy makers involved in addressing such issues associated to the older HIV-infected patients.","PeriodicalId":92670,"journal":{"name":"Journal of human virology & retrovirology","volume":"3 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67075644","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}

Pre­vious outbreaks in the Pacific Islands and the current outbreak have revealed a potential association with neu­rologic illnesses such as Guillain-Barre syndrome.The diagnosis of Zika virus infection is based on results of serum polymerase chain reaction or serologic test­ing.
