  1. 1. Microbiota of the alimentary tract of children - implications for allergy and inflammatory bowel disease

    Author : Fei Sjöberg; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; gut flora; child; oral flora; allergy; duodenum; inflammatory bowel disease; culture; T-RFLP; pyrosequencing;

    Abstract : Allergy, which is the most common chronic disease in Swedish children and adolescents, is associated with a high standard of living and Western lifestyle. According to the hygiene hypothesis, allergy is due to inadequate stimulation of the immune system by microbes during early childhood, leading to failed maturation of the immune system. READ MORE

  2. 2. Characterization of the Intestinal Microbiota by DNA-Based Methods

    Author : Mei Wang; Livsmedelsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; mycology; Mikrobiologi; bakteriologi; virologi; mykologi; bacteriology; virology; Microbiology; Ulcerative colitis; T-RFLP; 16S rRNA; Brachyspira; Microbiota; Bacterial diversity; Bacterial translocation; Translocating bacteria;

    Abstract : The intestinal flora and the bacteria found in the extraintestinal sites were studied in liver injury rats, with or without Lactobacillus plantarum 299v pre-treatment. The dominating intestinal flora and translocating bacteria were typed by RAPD and identified by 16S rDNA sequencing. READ MORE

  3. 3. Composition and dynamics of the bacterial community in aerobic granular sludge reactors

    Author : Enikö Barbara Szabo; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; qPCR; sequencing batch reactors; microbial community composition; T-RFLP; functional groups; Illumina MiSeq; wastewater; aerobic granular sludge; nitrogen removal; population dynamics;

    Abstract : The aerobic granular sludge (AGS) technology is probably the future standard for wastewater treatment, due to its low footprint and low energy consumption. Although achieving granulation is usually not a challenge anymore, our understanding of the community assembly during start-up, and of the microbial ecology of these reactors in general, is incomplete.

  4. 4. Microcirculation, Mucus and Microbiota in Inflammatory Bowel Disease

    Author : Olof Schreiber; Lena Holm; Mia Phillipson; Henrik Sjövall; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; inflammatory bowel diseases; experimental colitis; DSS; TNBS; colonic mucosal blood flow; laser-doppler flowmetry; colonic mucus thickness; MUC2; colonic mucosal barrier function; iNOS; eNOS; probiotics; Lactobacilli; Lactobacillus reuteri; colonic microbiota; T-RFLP; bacterial translocation; intravital microscopy; P-selectin; leukocyte recruitment; platelet recruitment; Physiology; Fysiologi; Physiology; Fysiologi;

    Abstract : Inflammatory bowel diseases, (IBD), are a group of chronic disorders of the gastro-intestinal tract, and include Crohn’s disease (CD) and Ulcerative Colitis (UC). The pathogenesis is not known, but involves at least in part a loss of tolerance towards the commensal colonic microbiota. READ MORE

  5. 5. Use of microbiomics to study human impacts on complex microbial communities

    Author : Cecilia Jernberg; Janet K. Jansson; Charlotta Edlund; Julian R. Marchesi; Södertörns högskola; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : The study of bacterial communities in nature is currently a challenge. The majority of bacteria in clinical and environmental samples have not yet been cultured and therefore we cannot fully understand their roles in nature and how the ecological balance in a specific microbial ecosystem can be disrupted.
