(Brac University, 2019-09)Urinary tract infections are considered as the second most common type of infection occurred in body. Escherichia coli is the most common cause of urinary tract of infection for both male and female, higher percentage found ... -
Antibiotic resistance pattern of escherichia coli: a cross-sectional study of antibiograms
(BRAC University, 2018-09)Antibiotic resistance is one of the serious issues nowadays. This is a global problem and more problematic in developing and underdeveloped countries. It develops due to various reasons, like food habit, poor sanitization, ... -
Can phages be cheated? - A study on the influence of inducing molecules on bacteriophage propagation at low host cell densities
(Brac University, 2020-06)It has been reported in vitro that bacteriophages require a certain host cell density in order to propagate. However, previous studies have shown that in environment, especially in water bodies, bacteriophage infection ... -
