  2. 21. Bacterial viruses targeting multi-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae and Escherichia coli

    Author : Harald Eriksson; Anders Nilsson; Elisabeth Haggård-Ljungquist; Klas Flärdh; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Bacterial viruses; Bacteriophage; Phage; Phage therapy; multi-resistant bacteria; Klebsiella pneumoniae; molekylärgenetik; Molecular Genetics;

    Abstract : The global increase in antibiotic resistance levels in bacteria is a growing concern to our society and highlights the need for alternative strategies to combat bacterial infections. Bacterial viruses (phages) are the natural predators of bacteria and are as diverse as their hosts, but our understanding of them is limited. READ MORE

  4. 22. Effect of environmental factors on bacterioplankton community composition, diversity and functionality

    Author : Johanna Sjöstedt; Lasse Riemann; Silke Langenheder; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; marine microbiology; bacterioplankton; community composition; diversity; functionality; environmental factors; disturbance; distribution; Mikrobiologi; Microbiology; Akvatisk ekologi; Aquatic Ecology;

    Abstract : The ocean covers more than 70 % of the Earth surface and represents the largest ecosystem on Earth. Bacteria are an important part of the marine food web not only in remineralisation but also since they utilize dissolved organic matter (DOM) and make the energy available to higher trophic levels.

  5. 23. Processes governing the drinking water microbiome

    Author : Sandy Chan; Teknisk mikrobiologi; []
    Keywords : Drinking water microbiome; Biofilm; Slow sand filters; Ultrafiltration; Bacterial community; Flow cytometry; Next generation sequencing;

    Abstract : AbstractSafe drinking water is far from sterile and can contain 10^3-10^5 bacteria/mL. This water microbiome can be altered through various treatment processes in the drinking water treatment plant (DWTP), particularity when it comes in contact with biofilms. READ MORE

  6. 24. Aetiology in community-acquired pneumonia

    Author : Niclas Johansson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Background: Although community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) is a common and well-known disease, its microbial aetiology is still not well characterized. During the past few years nucleic acid detection using real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) has been developed for detection of many bacterial and viral pathogens causing respiratory tract infections.

  7. 25. 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
