Example Sentences:
(1) In this article we report the survival and morbidity rates for all live-born infants weighing 501 to 1000 gram at birth and born to residents of a defined geographic region from 1977 to 1980 (n = 255) compared with 1981 to 1984 (n = 266).
(2) We conclude that chloramphenicol resistance encoded by Tn1696 is due to a permeability barrier and hypothesize that the gene from P. aeruginosa may share a common ancestral origin with these genes from other gram-negative organisms.
(3) Control incubations revealed an inherent difference between the two substrates; gram-positive supernatants consistently contained 5% radioactivity, whereas even at 0 h, those from the gram-negative mutant released 22%.
(4) In gram positive organisms, the concordance was lower only for the differentiation between group D streptococci and enterococci.
(5) It is the absorbed dose in joules per gram that is biologically significant and the data shows that the mean absorbed dose to death within either sex shows no significant difference with respect to age or weight, but that the difference between the sexes are significant, particularly among the aged ex-breeders.
(6) Enzymatic activity per gram of urinary creatinine was consistently but not significantly higher before extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy than in control subjects.
(7) Since resistance is mainly mediated by R plasmids, we undertook to investigate the characteristics of R plasmid-determined beta-lactamase in 6 Gram-negative rods.
(8) The test organisms included 218 gram-negative fermentative clinical isolates.
(9) Bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS), which are important components of the cell wall of gram-negative bacteria, induce a number of host responses both beneficial and harmful.
(10) Key therapeutic questions are whether beta-lactams can safely replace aminoglycosides for the treatment of gram-negative pneumonia, and whether monotherapy or aminoglycoside and beta-lactam combination antibiotic treatment is superior.
(11) The compounds favored the development of bacteria of the genus Pseudomonas and inhibited the growth of all other gram-negative bacteria.
(12) The antibiotic was effective against Gram-positive bacteria, fungi and yeasts, and prolonged the life span of mice bearing Ehrlich ascites carcinoma.
(13) Nine of the children had at least one positive Limulus assay, and eight of this group had bacteriologic cultures indicative of gram-negative infection.
(14) More Gram-positive infections are now being reported and the sensitivity of the causative organisms varies.
(15) We treated 51 patients diagnosed as having chronic bacterial prostatitis (gram-negative) with 2 ml.
(16) Hematoma clot weighing 10 grams was removed through emergency craniotomy, followed by external decompression.
(17) For further characterization of EC-GRAM the A431 cell line was used.
(18) Cure rates for nosocomial pneumonias from gram-negative bacilli treated with these 2 therapies also were similar (70% versus 60%, respectively).
(19) The experience illustrates the danger of assuming that all pneumococcus peritonitis is the primary variety and the advisability of routine Gram stain of the peritoneal fluid at operation in order to select the appropriate antibiotic.
(20) These results support the idea that P. aeruginosa may be a more permissive host than E. coli for the heterologous expression of genes from gram-negative bacteria.

(a.) Sorrow; grief; misery.
Example Sentences:
(1) The distribution of frequencies of the number per grame of Ascaris lumbricoides and Trichuris trichiura in the faeces of naturally infected human in endemic areas, were found following a negative binomial distribution and an overdispersal pattern, independently of the ages of hosts.
