| salmonella isolations in abattoirs in greece. | the prevalence of salmonellas in drain swabs from three abattoirs of athens was studied with the use of conventional methods of salmonella isolation as well as with a new procedure which involves secondary enrichment from the usual selenite broth or muller-kauffmann's tetrathionate broth in rappaport's medium slightly modified.in all groups studied the secondary enrichment in rappaport's medium led to an increase in the number of positive swabs, in the number of salmonella serotypes, and in the ... | 1970 | 4925084 |
| detection of chromosomal and plasmid--encoded virulence determinants in yersinia enterocolitica and other yersinia spp. isolated from food animals in greece. | the distribution of yersinia strains in animal reservoirs was examined in 835 food animals (pigs, chickens, sheep, cows) from different greek departments (attica, fthiotida, viotia and evia) over a one year period. the isolated strains were characterized with respect to the presence of chromosomal (yst) and plasmid-encoded virulence determinants (virf, yada) and their antimicrobial susceptibility was tested. in total, yersiniaspp. were obtained from 9.94% of the 835 food animals at slaughter tha ... | 2007 | 17825934 |
| development and use of an economic evaluation model to assess establishment of local centralized rural biogas plants in greece. | an economic evaluation model was developed in the laboratory of agricultural structures (las) of the agricultural university of athens-the modified basic economic evaluation model (mbeem). this model is an improved version of the original basic economic evaluation model, available in las, and it is used to assess the cost-effectiveness of biogas production systems. because of the parameters involved, a computer model was developed to facilitate the application of the mbeem. the model was used in ... | 2003 | 12794300 |
