11. Antibiotic Resistance and the Cellular Currency S-adenosyl-methionine : Modification of aminoglycosides and nucleic acids
Abstract : Streptomycin and spectinomycin are antibiotics that bind to ribosomes and inhibit protein synthesis. Common resistance mechanisms involve enzymatic modification of the two drugs by aminoglycoside nucleotidyltransferases (ANTs). The first part of this thesis covers the structural mechanism of two ANT enzymes. READ MORE

12. Antibiotic Resistance: A Multimethod Investigation of Individual Responsibility and Behaviour
Abstract : The rapid development of antibiotic resistance is directly related to how antibiotics are used in society. The international effort to decrease and optimise the use of antibiotics should be sustained by the development of policies that are sensitive to social and cultural contexts. READ MORE

Abstract : Anaerobic digestion (AD) is a well-established technology that can play a key role in development of a sustainable society. In AD, organic wastes such as animal manure, food waste and crop residues are used as substrate and converted to biogas and digestate, which represent green energy and a biofertiliser. READ MORE

15. Quantifying effects of antimicrobial drug combinations by modelling and simulation
Abstract : Antibiotic resistance is becoming an accelerating issue, both in the treatment of nosocomial infections and for public health in general. There is a pressing need for innovative methods to understand how available antibiotics could be combined to overcome and limit the emergence of resistance. READ MORE
