1. Molecular epidemiology of coagulase-negative staphylococci in hospitals and in the community
Abstract : Background Coagulase-negative staphylococci (CoNS) and in particular Staphylococcus epidermidis have emerged as major pathogens primarily causing nosocomial infections in patients with indwelling medical devices. These infections are often caused by multidrug-resistant strains of S. epidermidis (MDRSE). READ MORE

2. Generic Properties of Polymer Solutions
Abstract : Polymer solutions are abundantly present in our daily life, for example in paints, jellies, contact lenses and even in the living cells. Despite their ubiquity, we still have a poor understanding of the physical properties of solutions due to the extremely large number of internal degrees of freedom. READ MORE

3. Detection and Characterisation of Salmonella in Animal Feed Samples by PCR-Based Methods
Abstract : Animal feed is a recognised source of Salmonella enterica for farm livestock and may also indirectly cause infection in people consuming foods of animal origin. It is therefore important to have rapid, reproducible and specific methods for the detection of Salmonella in feed, and for the characterisation of strains for further epidemiological investigations or to trace the source of contamination in a production facility.

5. Microbial ecology and virulence gene studies of the insect pathogen Bacillus thuringiensis
Abstract : Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) is a spore-forming bacterium used as a bio-pesticide due to its insect toxicity. Bt was used as a model organism in a risk evaluation project. Prevalence, survival and spreading, as well as genome stability, putative virulence genes, and gene transfer were examined. Field release of a marked Bt subsp. READ MORE
