Title: Infectious diseases and microalgae

Abstract:

Medical microbiology aims are the prevent, diagnosis and treatment of infectious diseases and include studies of various clinical applications of microbes for the improvement of health and Epidemiology is an important part of medical microbiology. According to the WHO, the pandemic is entering a new phase characterized by a dramatic shift of its epicenter to the developing world. Deaths from non-communicable diseases are on the rise. Emerging only at the end of 2019, the COVID-19 pandemic has quickly become a global threat to population health, infecting over 153 million people and caused a considerable number of additional deaths with still unknown long-term impact on morbidity as well as everywhere has impacted the ability of health systems to provide undisrupted health services. Clinical microbiology deals with the interrelation of macro- and microorganisms under normal and pathological conditions, their effects on the human body, and the methods of treating those infections. In the last decades, changing ways of life and nutrition have additionally prompted the emergence of new dangerous pandemics and relevant information necessary for optimal patient management that requires new decisions.

Title: An evaluation of opportunistic fungi in the broncho alveolar lavage samples

Abstract:

Opportunistic fungi are a constantly evolving group of pathogens that When the immune system cannot raise an adequate response, they are activated, begin to multiply, and soon overwhelm the body's weakened defenses. This study was performed to evaluate the amount of opportunistic fungi in BAL samples of diverse group of patients by interpreting the results of the study based on direct examination and culture methods. After receiving patients’ consent forms, and biography,a total of 120 BAL samples was taken by a pulmonary physician, and a part of the sample transferred to mycology laboratory for microbial examinations. From each BAL sample, 100 µl was cultured on Sabouraud Dextrose Agar (SDA) and for microscopic observation the sample was centrifuged and two smear was prepared from the sediment using Giemsa staining and 10% KOH. Yeast cells were counted on SDA and Direct smears were precisely examined for presence of yeasts or pseudohyphae, pneumocystis and filamentous fungi. The etiologic agents were identified by standard morphological and molecular Methods.

Title: prevalence of drug resistance bacteria in primary, secondary and tertiary healthcare level

Abstract:

Safe drinking water does not represent any significant risk to health over the life time of consumption, including different sensitivities that may occur between life stages (WHO 2015). Drinking water quality has a microbiological and a physicochemical dimension. Street vended drinking water is a major source of satisfying thirst for lots of people. This water may not be always safe for drinking and may contain potentially harmful microorganisms. The present study will be done to assess the microbiological quality (more specifically, the presence of fecal coliform bacteria) of street vended drinking water in Dhaka City.
