Sammanfattning : Agricultural management practices geared towards reducing nutrient leaching are in focus for the research presented in this thesis. Critical measures for reducing diffuse pollution from the agricultural sector depend on decisions of individual farmers. LÄS MER
2. Genotypic and phenotypic characterisation of Staphylococcus epidermidis isolated from prosthetic joint infections
Sammanfattning : Staphylococcus epidermidis has emerged in recent years as an important nosocomial pathogen, especially in infections associated with implanted foreign body materials (e.g., prosthetic joints and heart valves) and in individuals with a compromised immune system (e.g. LÄS MER

The aims of this thesis were to describe the epidemiology of invasive Staphylococcus aureus infections (ISA), the clinical course, and serological response in ISA in a prospective, population-based study. LÄS MER
4. The accessory gene regulator, agr, a system for coordinate control of virulence genes in Staphylococcus aureus
Sammanfattning : Bacterial pathogenicity is generally multifactorial, and genes encoding virulence factors are often subject to coordinate regulation. The regulating systems are supposed to adapt the production of virulence factors in response to changes in the environment during the process of infection. LÄS MER
