1. Structural studies of bacterial carbohydrate antigens with focus on oral commensal bacteria
Sammanfattning : 90% of the total number of cells in the human body consist of the normal bacterial flora. These bacteria are mostly not harmful and, indeed, even beneficial as long as they remain physiologically outside the body, e.g., within the gastro-intestinal tract. LÄS MER
2. Viridans group streptococci septicaemia and endocarditis : molecular diagnostics, antibiotic susceptibility and cinical aspects
Sammanfattning : Viridans group streptococci (VGS) are inhabitants in the oral cavity and in the gastrointestinal tract. They cause severe infections, they are responsible for up to 39 % of the cases of septicaemia in neutropenic patients with haematological diseases and cause infective endocarditis (IE), mainly in patients with native valves and previous heart disease.

3. Transcriptomic and taxonomic profiling of periodontitis by massively parallel sequencing
Sammanfattning : Periodontitis is a microbial-induced, chronic inflammatory disease that affects tissue and bone anchoring the teeth, and can ultimately lead to tooth loss. In addition, periodontitis may contribute to systemic diseases, such as cardiovascular disease (CVD), diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and inflammatory bowel diseases. LÄS MER
4. Effect of surface characteristics on cellular adherence and activity
Sammanfattning : Ersättning av förlorade tänder med tandimplantat är numera en vanlig behandlingsmetod med generellt goda resultat. Antalet implantatsystem på den internationella marknaden har ökat kraftigt under senare år. LÄS MER
5. Antimicrobial potential of strontium against bacteria associated with peri-implantitis
Sammanfattning : Dental implants are nowadays a standard treatment to replace missing teeth and restore function and aesthetics. However, biological complications associated with implants, e.g., peri-implant infections, are common and jeopardize the success of treatment. LÄS MER
