6. PCR detection of Streptococcus pneumoniae and Haemophilus influenzae in pneumonia patients
Sammanfattning : PCR is a rapid, reproducible method for nucleic acid detection. However, this technology displays significant deficiencies when applied in clinical microbiology. This work’s aim was to improve current diagnostics and provide sensitive and quantitative real-time PCRs. LÄS MER
7. The adaptive immune response against Streptococcus pneumoniae and epidemiology in Sweden and Angola
Sammanfattning : .... LÄS MER
8. Penicillin-Nonsusceptible Streptococcus pneumoniae in Malmö, Sweden. Aspects of Epidemiology, Microbiology and Genetics
Sammanfattning : S. pneumoniae is a major cause of common diseases such as acute otitis media and pneumonia, as well as more serious illnesses like septicemia and meningitis. The increasing level of resistance in pneumococci threatens to change the tradition of treating common respiratory infections with narrow-spectrum penicillin. LÄS MER
9. Antibiotic use and respiratory pathogens with focus on Streptococcus pneumoniae in Tanzanian children
Sammanfattning : This thesis describes the epidemiology of Streptococcus pneumoniae (pneumococci) and other respiratory pathogens after introduction of the 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13) and further portrays antibiotic use in Tanzanian children. Pneumococci are a leading cause of pneumonia in children. LÄS MER
10. Competence pilus biogenesis in Streptococcus pneumoniae
Sammanfattning : Horizontal gene transfer drives bacterial evolution and is crucial for the pathogenicity of many bacteria that can exchange genetic material through distinct mechanisms such as natural transformation. S. LÄS MER
