  • Effect of pre-and probiotics on gut microbiome dynamics in chicken 
    Najem-Moussa, Wadiha (Notre Dame University-Louaize, 2019-02-02)
    During recent years, the practice of administering antibiotics to animal feed at sub-therapeutic levels has raised concern with consumers because of the apparent increase of antibiotic-resistant bacteria in the human food chain. Researchers have found that probiotics composed of naturally occurring beneficial live microbes such as bacteria (lactobacilli) could be the novel growth promoters. Supplementing poultry diet with probiotics has been found to improve growth performance, feed conversion efficiency, and immune responses, and help in combating enteric pathogens. The aim of this study is ...
  • A meta- analysis of antibiotic resistance prevalence among hospital and community- acquired infections 
    Mahmoud, Hala Bassam (Notre Dame University-Louaize, 2021)
    Antibiotic resistance and prevalence of hospital (HAI) and community-acquired (CAI) infections are significantly increasing in the world, though very few studies are addressing this topic in Lebanon. Therefore, this meta-analysis aims to identify antibiotic (AB) resistance prevalence among hospital and community acquired infections. Literature databases were searched for antibiotic resistance, HAI, and CAI in Lebanon from 2010 to 2020. To be eligible for inclusion, studies had to report data in Lebanon published between 2010 and 2020, antibiotic resistance in microorganisms responsible for either ...
