Burn injury compromises the skin barrier and enables bacterial infection, hence delaying burn wound healing. This study aimed to determine the microbial profile of burn wounds, and resistance patterns of microbes with respect to the source of the injured patient's wound. From 130 wound swab samples were collected from burn patients at Azadi Teachin...
Klebsiella pneumoniae is globally responsible for hospital- and community-acquired infections. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of K. pneumoniae and investigate the antibiotic resistance profile among clinical specimens at Azadi Teaching Hospital in Kirkuk, Iraq, and detect the rpoB gene for molecular identification of K. pneumoniae in...
Klebsiella spp. are gram-negative bacteria that are considered serious public health problems causing urinary
tract infections, bloodstream infections, pneumonia infections, and soft tissue infections. This study was
designed to investigate the prevalence of Klebsiella oxytoca (K. oxytoca) among clinical samples and determine
their resistance ag...
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a gram negative bacterium ,causes many infections specially in immunocompromised individuals and causes critical infections in cystic fibrosis patients. It has remarkable ability to resist various kinds of antibiotics by intrinsic , acquired and adaptive resistance mechanisms , because of the diversity in resistance mechan...
Background: “P. aeruginosa” is considered as ubiquitous bacteria that can rapidly obtain resistanceagainst various wide spectrum antibiotics It can rapidly obtain resistance against various widespectrum antibiotics which lead to problematic conditions. This study was proceeded with an aim todetermine the antibacterial resistance pattern and prevale...
Nasal carriage of Staphylococcus aureus (S.aureus) especially methicillin-resistant
S.aureus (MRSA) among health care personnel poses a risk to the patient. To detect
the prevalence of nasal colonization of “S.aureus” and its antibacterial susceptibility
profile among nursing students attending Faculty of nursing at the Kirkuk
University. Betwe...
Background and Aim: E.coli is a member of the Enterobacteriaceae family and gram-negative bacilli. Many genera of bacteria can be caused urinary tract infections. Uropathogenic E.coli is responsible for 80-90% of urinary tract infections around the globe. This study determined the prevalence rate of uropathogenic E.coli isolated from Women Patients...
The aim of current experiment is estimate the potential effects of D. viscosa extract to treat the kidney tissue changes of infected rats with S. aureus. 30 clinical samples were obtained from patients with chronic lung disease attending Al Jumhuri Hospital, at period February-April 2021. 20 adult rats were utilized in current experiment, and the r...
In this systematic review, we present the prevalence rates of the carbapenem resistance and carbapenemase genes of 11 articles reported in different regions of Iraq. The highest rates of carbapenem genes were blaOXA-48 (73.8%) followed by blaNDM-1 (67.27%), in Baghdad, in Waist also blaOXA-48 (57.8%) followed by blaNDM-1 (50%) were the highest rate...
Background: The nasal cavity is the main colonization site of Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) in human body. Nasal carriage may be a strong risk factor for some serious infection. Methods: One thousand anterior nasal swabs were collected,700 from healthy adult individuals in Kirkuk university which include 100 swabs from science staff , 300 from...
The current study was aimed to estimate microbial contamination and water quality in the Lesser-Zab River sediments in Kirkuk city, Iraq. 1L of water samples was collected, per month starting from October 2019 until the March 2020, from three studied stations. The current study included the measurement total aerobic bacteria and Total Coli form Bac...
Aims: Determine the prevalence of "P. aeruginosa" among clinical samples demonstrated from Azadi Teaching Hospital in Kirkuk, Iraq and to study the antibiogram profile of the isolates. Duration of Study: from July-December 2016. Methodology: The clinical isolates were characterized by standard methods of culturing, biochemical tests then they were...

Create an interactive environment through new electronic devices and technologies, and the presence of a variety of sources of information and experience. Not to attend the same location through distance learning, and this is one of the most important goals of e-learning. In times of corona virus isolation, the educational process should not "suffer" and we should not lack contacts with students and colleagues.
