1. Go with your gut : The human intestinal microbiota, international travel, Campylobacter and ESBL-producing Enterobacteriaceae
Sammanfattning : Up to 100 million people travel annually from industrialized countries to resource-limited ones. Each traveller contains an internal ecosystem composed of tens of trillions of microbes, known as the intestinal microbiota, which has a large effect on health. LÄS MER
2. Development of novel molecular methods for Campylobacter species and for Helicobacter pylori
Sammanfattning : Background and Aim: Different Campylobacter species and Helicobacter pylori are common causes of gastrointestinal infections that may result in diarrhea and chronic gastritis, respectively. The overall aim of this thesis was to develop novel methods for identification, differentiation and characterization of these bacteria. LÄS MER
3. Epidemiology and population structure of Campylobacter jejuni and related organisms in wild birds
Sammanfattning : Campylobacter jejuni is one of the most common causes to bacterial gastroenteritis in the industrialised world. Also other species of the Campylobacter genus give rise to human infections. C. jejuni occurs in many different animal hosts and can be isolated from water sources. LÄS MER
4. Host-pathogen interactions during Campylobacter and Yersinia infections
Sammanfattning : The innate immune system is known for protecting the host against invading pathogens, for instance enteropathogens infecting the gastrointestinal tract. The production of e.g. antimicrobial peptides, cytokines, and chemokines by innate immune cells and intestinal epithelial cells contribute to bacterial clearance. LÄS MER
5. Characterization of Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli water isolates
Sammanfattning : Campylobacter jejuni and C. coli are together the most common cause of bacterial gastroenteritis in the European Union. Campylobacter can be transmitted to humans via contaminated water, but it is largely unknown how these bacteria survive in water. LÄS MER
