A STUDY OD DERMATHOPHYTES FLORA AMONG THREE ARMY BASES IN SOUTHERN IRAN
For many years , Penicilline was the only drug of choice for treatment of Gonorrhoeae, but the increased incidence of this disease in many parts of the world and the failure of Penicilline-therapy against it has brought the theory of penicilline-resistant strains of Gonococcus. On the other hand ,...
