  1. 1. Antimicrobial materials from cellulose using environmentally friendly techniques

    Författare :Anna Ottenhall; Monica Ek; Josefin Illergård; Orlando Rojas; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Antibacterial; antifungal; cellulosic; mold; bacteria; biobased; bio-based; renewable; insulation; packaging; water treatment; water purification; paper filter; paper; membrane; Antibakteriell; fungicid; mögel; antimögel; pappersfilter; vattenrening; membran; papper; bakterier; cellulosa; förpackning; isolering; förnyelsebar; biobaserade; nya material; Fiber- och polymervetenskap; Fibre and Polymer Science;

    Sammanfattning : The transition to a more biobased society introduces both new opportunities and new challenges as we replace nonrenewable materials with renewable alternatives. One important challenge will be to control microbial growth on materials, both to protect the materials from biological degradation and to prevent the spread of infections and toxins that can cause illness.

  3. 2. In vitro Pharmacodynamics of Antifungal Agents in the Treatment of Candida Infections

    Författare :Anders Lignell; Jan Sjölin; Elisabeth Löwdin; Mats Kalin; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; amphotericin B; antagonism; Candida; human serum; inhibition; interaction; in vitro; kinetic model; pharmacodynamics; pharmacokinetics; posaconazole; protein binding; voriconazole; Infectious diseases; Infektionssjukdomar; Infektionssjukdomar; Infectious Diseases;

    Sammanfattning : Pharmacodynamic studies are important for the optimal use of antimicrobial agents. Combination antifungal therapy may be one method to improve outcome in invasive Candida infections. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Pharmaceutical And Immunollogical Challenge Of Fungal Pathogens

    Författare :Marios Stylianou; Constantin F. Urban; Christophe d' Enfert; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; mast cells; Candida albicans; yeast to hyphal form; antifungal drugs; repurposed drugs; HTS;

    Sammanfattning : Incidences of fungal infections are on the rise in immunosuppressed people. Predominant causative agents for these mycoses are species of the genus Candida, including Candida albicans, Candida glabrata and Candida dublieniensis. Despite a wide range of emerging pathogens, C. albicans remains the leading cause. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Deep Candida infections. Serology for laboratory diagnosis and antifungal activity of lactoferrin derived fragments

    Författare :Nahid Kondori; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Deep Candida infections (DCI) in patients who are immunocompromised or in intensive care units present both diagnostic and therapeutic problems. Serological tests for diagnosis of invasive fungal infections are used with varying results. Moreover, long term therapies with antifungal agents have led to the emergence of resistant Candida strains. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Candida albicans adaption to host microenvironments drives immune evasion

    Författare :José Pedro Lopes; Constantin F. Urban; Alistair Brown; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; fungi; candida albicans; neutrophils; mast cells; immune evasion; mycoses; infectious diseases; immunologi; Immunology; Infectious Diseases; infektionssjukdomar; Molecular Immunology; molekylär immunologi;

    Sammanfattning : Immunosuppressed patients are frequently afflicted with severe mycoses caused by opportunistic fungal pathogens. Besides being a commensal colonizing predominantly skin and mucosal surfaces, Candida albicans is the most common human fungal pathogen. LÄS MER
