Antibacterial Activity of Live Cells of Lactobacillus Plantarum L40 as A Probiotic Against Pathogens Associated with Diabetic Foot Infections
...Show More Authors

     The present study was designed to select a suitable isolate of Lactobacillus sp. in order to use it as a probiotic formula for treating diabetic foot ulcer disease in diabetic mellitus patients. In order to determine the inhibitory action, 240 isolates of Lactobacillus from different sources, were taken and exposed for screening tests to evaluate the (antagonism-activities) toward 4 multi-drug resistant foot ulcer pathogens which were chosen from 120 pathogenic isolates:  Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumonia, Proteus mirabilis, and P. aeruginosa. Twenty Lactobacillus isolates were selected from primary screening according to the capacity to restrain its expansion of four markers, that were exposed toward second screenings to detect their ability to produce a high amount of bacteriocin. Based on the results, the isolate Lactobacillus L40 was selected as the highest bacteriocin producing isolate which was further characterized as Lactobacillus plantarum Next, several tests were performed to study the properties of L. plantarum L40, in particular its biosafety and its suitability to be a successful probiotic. Results showed that L. plantarum was resistant to cephalosporin groups such as ceftriaxone and cefepime whereas, it was sensitive to amikacin and chloramphenicol. In addition, results revealed that this bacterium was strongly adherent and a good biofilm producer; had high auto-aggregation capability and a high ability to adhere with S. Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumonia, Proteus mirabilis and P. aeruginosa. A gel formula containing live cells of L. plantarum L40 was prepared and based on the results, cells were successfully survived in this formula over 18 days. Therefore, it was selected to be utilized as a vector to store and transport viable cells of L. plantarum L40. This gel formula showed antibacterial activity by inhibiting Staphylococcus aureus, Klebsiella pneumonia, Proteus mirabilis, and P. aeruginosa growth. The results showed the possibility of using viable cells of bacteriocin-producing Lactobacillus plantarum as an effective probiotic to deal with some skin pathogens, and hence treat skin diseases such as diabetic foot ulcer disease.

A hand-held hybrid gamma-near-infrared fluorescence imaging camera
...Show More Authors

Objectives: Recently, there have been important advances in the clinical application of targeted hybrid near-infrared (NIR) fluorescent-radioactive tracers. ICG-99mTc-nanocolloid, for example, is already being used by some centres for sentinel lymph node biopsy in head and neck cancer. The radioactive component allows imaging at depths which would not be possible with NIR alone and, once exposed, the NIR fluorescence reporter can be imaged at very high resolution. Gamma detection is currently carried out with a separate hand-held gamma camera or with a non-imaging probe. Visualisation of NIR fluorescence during surgery requires a dedicated NIR camera, several of which are available commercially. We describe a novel hand-held hybrid NIR-gamm

Recently, wireless charging based RF harvesting has interfered our lives [1] significantly through the different applications including biomedical, military, IoT, RF energy harvesting, IT-care, and RFID technologies. Wirelessly powered low energy devices become significantly essential for a wide spectrum of sensing applications [1]. Such devices require for low energy resources from sunlight, mechanical vibration, thermal gradients, convection flows or other forms of harvestable energy [2]. One of the emerging power extraction resources based on passive devices is harvesting radio frequency (RF) signals powers [3]–[5]. Such applications need devices that can be organized in very large numbers, so, making separate node battery impractical.
