Journal ArticleDOI
Hepatitis C virus infection in Jordanian haemodialysis units: serological diagnosis and genotyping.
TL;DR: The prevalence of anti-HCV, blood transfusion, duration of dialysis and HCV genotypes suggest possible nosocomial HCV transmission among patients which needs confirmation by phylogenetic analysis of subgenomic HCV regions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Differentiation of native goat breeds of Jordan on the basis of morphostructural characteristics
TL;DR: A total of 493 does from 50 herds were measured to identify the different Jordanian goat breeds based on morphostructural characteristics, and nose shape was the most discriminating variable among different pair-wise breeds’ comparisons, followed by withers height then body weight, ear type, color and teat placement.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enterotoxicity and genetic variation among clinical Staphylococcus aureus isolates in Jordan
TL;DR: The genetic diversity of Jordanian clinical S. aureus isolates is demonstrated and it is shown that the presence of the toxin genes is not genotype specific.
Journal ArticleDOI
Antibiotic resistance patterns of mecA-positive Staphylococcus aureus isolates from clinical specimens and nasal carriage.
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that the nasal carriage rate of Staphylococcus aureus was 40% in Jordanian healthy young adult population, and 19% of nasal S. auresis and 57% of clinical isolates over the same period were resistant to oxacillin (MRSA), respectively.
