11. Microcirculation, Mucus and Microbiota in Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Sammanfattning : 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. LÄS MER
12. Microbial Production of Bio-Based Chemicals: A Biorefinery Perspective
Sammanfattning : A shift from fossil- to renewable biomass feedstock for the emerging bio-based economy requires the development and adoption of new sustainable technologies that are more suited for transformation of biomass components to chemicals, materials and energy. This thesis presents investigations on the development of processes based on industrial biotechnology as a key element for the production of chemicals from agro-/industrial by-products. LÄS MER
13. Effect of Probiotics on Caries-related Variables
Sammanfattning : In relation to the caries disease, the aims of this thesis were to investigate the effect of probiotic drops on different caries-related variables in vivo (Papers I & III), on interference capability and genetic response to different metabolites in vitro (II) and systematically to review the best mode and dose of administration based on the examined oral outcomes (IV). The effects on colonisation and cariogenic bacteria were studied in plaque and saliva via plating and qPCR-analyses in teenagers and orthodontic patients after short-term exposure. LÄS MER
14. RAPD and REA for Characterization of Lactobacillus plantarum strains, and Enterococcus spp. with Special Reference to Enterococcus spp. from Meat and Humans
Sammanfattning : Restriction Endonuclease Analysis (REA) was used to characterize strains of Lactobacillus plantarum, Lb. pentosus, and Lb. reuteri. This method was shown to be a powerful tool for separation at the species and strain level. LÄS MER
15. Exploring probiotics-host interactions : intestinal immune and defence responses to Lactobacillus reuteri in health and disease
Sammanfattning : Lactobacillus reuteri, a ubiquitous inhabitant of the mammalian gastrointestinal (GI) tract has known health-promoting effects and various strains are commercially available as probiotics. Several probiosis mechanisms have been suggested in L. reuteri’s mode of action, but the mediators and factors involved are not well understood. LÄS MER
