1. Studies on colonization and infection with Staphylococcus aureus and other microbes in skin disease
Sammanfattning : The skin is colonized with a wide range of microbes. Some offer vital protection from colonization and infection with pathogenic strains while others have the capacity to cause or exacerbate disease. LÄS MER
2. Microbes Associated with Hylobius abietis : A Chemical and Behavioral Study
Sammanfattning : This thesis is based on three inter-related studies: the first part deals with the microbial consortium, the identification of microbes and their volatiles, the second part deals with the study of bio-chemical control methods of two conifer pests; the pine weevil Hylobius abietis (L.) and the root rot fungi Heterobasidion spp. LÄS MER
3. Microbial evolution: patterns of diversity in aquatic protists
Sammanfattning : Little is known about how microbes diversify in nature. In contrast to the more studied multicellular organisms, microbes can have a) huge population sizes, b) high reproductive rates and c) long-distance dispersal. These characteristics can affect their tempo and mode of diversification in ways that still need to be understood. LÄS MER
4. Lactobacillus iners and the normal vaginal flora
Sammanfattning : The ecological niche of the vagina contains a large number of different microbes that are constantly interacting with each other and the host. Culture methods have not been sufficient in order to resolve the complexity of the normal vaginal flora. LÄS MER
5. Gut microbes and the developing brain
Sammanfattning : The discovery that commensal gut microbiota can influence host development and physiology beyond the gastrointestinal (GI) tract has triggered a paradigm shift in our conceptualization of the origin of human diseases. A growing body of preclinical research has demonstrated that gut microbiota exert a modulatory role on the development and function of brain circuits involved in motor control, emotion and cognition.
