It has taken the form of a concentrated epidemic in two high risk groups, namely, injection drug users and males who have sex with males. Similarly the number of Pakistani women infected with HPV is elevating dramatically. Screening for HPV in Pakistani female patients is not commonly practiced, and as a consequence, HPV prevalence and its correlation with cervical cancer is unknown. This book, therefore, provides information on the prevalent subtypes of HIV-1 in Pakistan population particularly the high-risk groups and earthquake 2005 affectees. It demonstrates the divergence patterns of HIV in Pakistan, UAE and Kenya population. We also discussed the prevalence of HPV infection and genotypes of HPV in healthy sexually active women presenting in gynecology clinic for evaluation and in Pakistani women diagnosed with cervical carcinoma. Our findings emphasize on the need of country-wide screening, treatment and increasing awareness about HIV, its mode of transmission and ways of prevention. Our analysis also underscores the demand to implement regular HPV screening for Pakistani women. ····· 1036199827

Basically, two types of sleeping sickness affecting human are known namely Trypanosoma brucei gambiense and Trypanosoma brucei rhodensiense. According to WHO, the disease occurs in 36 sub Saharan countries within the distribution of the tsetse fly belt. Human sleeping sickness may not be a known world-wide killer disease such as malaria and AIDS however, it is an important disease in sub-Saharan Africa and is responsible for a considerable degree of suffering and mortality in countries where it is endemic. There is need to determine the prevalence of Human sleeping sickness since the disease can confused to be witchcraft or some immune-competent disease for example AIDS. Busia County of Western Kenya lies in the tsetse fly belt and therefore, sleeping sickness disease is of great a public health concern. The ability to predict the likelihood of an epidemic would enable control measures and surveillance infrastructures to be put into place in advance. ····· 1036199768

Management of this problem depends on knowing which sources of faecal matter are the causes. The most common illnesses related to recreational faecal water pollution, are gastro-intestinal, although acute febrile respiratory illness and infections of the ear, nose, throat and eyes have been monitored. Currently the legislation regarding faecal water pollution is set in Europe by the Water Framework Directive (2006) and SEPA is legally committed to the protection and improvement of all Scottish waters to maintain a policy on microbiological standards for relevant discharges. An extensive literature review examined microbiological, chemical, genotypic and phenotypic methods used for the determination of faecal pollution in water and sediments. Also, the application of the FC:FS ratio method was tested in the Angus burns and bathing waters and the use of the FC:FS ratio method in laboratory microcosms with numbers of faecal coliforms and streptococci that that were proportional to the numbers found in animal and human faeces was evaluated. ····· 1036199743

für 53.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray Avian influenza (AI) is one of the deadliest zoonotic diseases facing human and animal populations. Various diagnostic techniques are available for the detection of AIVs, although virus isolation remains the gold standard method for epidemiological and genetic studies. RT-qPCR is a useful molecular biology tool for the detection of theses viruses for its rapidity, automation, and high throughput. However one concern with such methods is that it dose not provide information on whether the virus sample is infectious or dead. This technique has the limitation of producing false negative as well as false positive results. This book, therefore, provides new insights into the isolation of avian influenza viruses from cloacal samples obtained from waterfowl captured in the United States. In addition, wild aquatic birds are usually co-infected with influenza A viruses and other paramyxoviruses, of the later, Newcastle disease virus (NDV) is the most important virus which has the potential to outgrow AIVs during virus isolation in embryonated chicken eggs (ECEs). As part of this study, a method was developed to inhibit NDV overgrowth in eggs to allow the improved isolation of AIVs in ECEs. ····· 1036198991
