  1. 1. Diagnosis of urinary tract infections : aspects of quality assurance and communication of concepts

    Författare :Olle Aspevall; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :Accreditation; concept system; chromogenic culture medium; external quality assessment; microbiology; terminology; urine culture.;

    Sammanfattning : Urinary tract infection (UTI) is a common disease; most cases are managed in primary health care (PHC. Dipslide (a type of urine culture test designed for point of care testing) is used in PHC in Sweden for the diagnosis of UTI. The results in an external quality assessment programme initiated in 1993 for dipslide did not improve over the years. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Rapid diagnosis of sepsis pathogens

    Författare :Mohammed Almuhayawi; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Sepsis is a growing global healthcare concern and is related to high morbidity and mortality. Studies have repeatedly demonstrated that the rapid administration of appropriate antimicrobial treatment is crucial for patient survival. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Rapid microbiological diagnosis of infections in sterile body fluids including blood

    Författare :Osman Altun; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Infections of normally sterile body fluids (SBF) including blood, cerebrospinal-, pleural-, peritoneal-, pericardial and synovial fluid are critical and require early diagnosis and rapid initiation of appropriate antimicrobial therapy. With the advanced and invasive care of modern medicine, infections of SBF are increasing worldwide. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Production, purification and characterization of antibacterial biomolecules from an alkaliphilic Bacillus

    Författare :Abolghasem Danesh; Bioteknik; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Forty alkaliphiles, which were isolated from samples collected in Eastern Africa, have been screened for production of antibacterial compounds. One of these isolates, Bacillus halodurans B20, was able to produce a prominent amount of antibacterial activity against a Gram-positive bacteria on agar plates [paper I] and selected for further study.

  7. 5. Caldicellulosiruptor Saccharolyticus: an Ideal Hydrogen Producer?

    Författare :Sudhanshu Pawar; Avdelningen för kemiteknik; []
    Nyckelord :Caldicellulosiruptor owensensis; Caldicellulosiruptor saccharolyticus; hydrogen; volumetric hydrogen productivity; biofilm; osmotolerance; wheat straw hydrolysate; evolutionary engineering; CSTR; UA reactor and uracil auxotrophy;

    Sammanfattning : Caldicellulosiruptor saccharolyticus is an extremely thermophilic, strictly anaerobic, Gram-positive and cellulolytic microorganism with a natural ability to produce hydrogen (H2) at nearly theoretical maximum yield, i.e. 4 mol/ mol of glucose. LÄS MER
