Abstract: Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV)-2, a novel coronavirus from the same family as SARS-CoV and Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus, has spread worldwide leading the World Health Organization to declare a pandemic1. The disease caused by SARS-CoV-2, coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID- 19), presents flu-like symptoms which can become serious in high-risk individuals2. Here, we provide an overview of the known diagnostics method for COVID-19. We carried out a systematic literature search using the main online databases (PubMed, Google Scholar, MEDLINE, Up-to-date, Embase and Web of Science) with the following keywords: 'COVID-19',.....

Abstract: As an alternative to chemical fertilizers, biofertilizersare becoming increasingly used in agriculture to enhance the growth of crops. Azotobacter species is among the microorganisms exploited in this technology. This study aimed at isolation and characterization of Azotobacter species used in biofertilizer. The organism was isolated from composite soil samples and cultured using Ashby's agar. Biochemical characterization and Gram staining technique were carried out on the isolates. Analysis of the soil samples were further carried out to determine the nitrogen contents, electrical conductivity and pH. Biochemical characteristics indicated that the Azotobacter was a Gram negative organism and positive for indole, starch hydrolysis, catalase and methyl red tests. The results indicated the possibility of isolation of Azotobacter species in soil samples could be further used in biofertilizer.

Abstract: The synthesis of nanoparticles in the presence of AgNO3 using microorganisms and their metabolites is of increasing interest because they are potential producers of biocompatible and environmental friendly nanoparticles. The synergistic actions of citrate stabilized silver nanoparticles ((AgNPs) with chem) were compared with that of Nepali hog plum Choerospondias axillaris (Lapsi) synthesized silver nanoparticles ((AgNPs) with plant), The DNA analysis of Salmonella typhi , E Coli and Psedomenouse (AgNPs) with chem ,(AgNPs) with plant respect to the control group indicated the presence of new bands in the DNA pattern, which could be considered as a marker for genetic alterations in the DNA of the silver nanoparticles in the presence of AgNO3.

Abstract: Recently high sensitive cardiac troponin I assays permit use of lower thresholds for the early diagnosis of myocardial infarction. The objective of this study was to compare diagnostic performance of a new high sensitive troponin I to that of conventional troponin I in subjects with chest pain admitted to emergency department of care hospitals. Both assays were analyzed on Beckman Coulter DxC 860i fully automated analyzer. The precision, accuracy , ROC analysis, Correlation and inter-rater reliability of the assay were evaluated. The diagnostic performance of high sensitive cardiac troponin assay was excellent and these assays can substantially improve the early diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction, particularly in patients with a recent onset of a chest pain.

Abstract: This paper considers ethnomedicinal process of the indigenous people of Bayelsa State in the context of plant species use for the management erectile dysfunction (ED). Open ended approach was used to fetch information on plant species for the management of ED in the study area. Meanwhile locals who comprised Traditional Medicinal Practitioners (TMPs) and elderly people (≥ 60 years) that had maintained continuous domicile for a period not less than fifteen years were deliberately selected as the respondents. Important Value (IV) ascertained the significance of the species used for the treatment of ED, and abundant status was used to determine the species' abundance at source. Nineteen (19) plants species belonged to eighteen (18) families were assessed for ED management in the area, while eleven......
