  1. 21. Miniaturised Microwell-based Cell Assays

    Författare :Emilie Weibull; Helene Andersson Svahn; Albert van den Berg; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; microwell; miniaturisation; high-resolution imaging; high-throughput; cell culture; single-cell; clone; heterogeneity; antibiotic susceptibility testing; concentration gradient; interfacing; microchannels; cell retrieval;

    Sammanfattning : Cell heterogeneity in genetically identical cell populations is becoming a well-known and important phenomenon in cell biology. Current methods commonly utilise population-based analysis founded on averaged result. Hence there is a need for high-throughput cell assays on the single-cell level. LÄS MER

  3. 22. Bacterial physiology and its role in antibiotic refractoriness

    Författare :Spyridon Gkotzis; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The pathological outcome of a bacterial infection depends on the interplay among the host’s innate defenses, the virulence arsenal of the pathogen and antibiotic treatment strategies. Understanding this interplay will provide mechanistic insights on antibiotic pharmacodynamics and bacterial pathogenesis, and set the stage for the development of novel therapeutic interventions.

  4. 23. Antibiotic resistance in Lactobacillus reuteri and Lactobacillus plantarum

    Författare :Maria Egervärn; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; Sveriges lantbruksuniversitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Lactic acid bacteria (LAB) may act as reservoirs of antibiotic resistance genes that can be transferred via the food chain or within the gastrointestinal tract to pathogenic bacteria. This thesis provides data required for assessing the potential risk of using antibiotic resistant strains of the LAB species Lactobacillus reuteri and Lactobacillus plantarum as food processing aids or probiotics.

  5. 24. Bacteremia after oral surgical procedures and antibiotic prophylaxis

    Författare :Gunnar Hall; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The use of antibiotic prophylaxis in patients predisposed to infective endocarditis who are undergoing oral surgical procedures is widely accepted. Because no controlled clinical trials of antibiotic regimens for the prevention of endocarditis in humans have been done, recommendations are based on results of, e.g. LÄS MER

  7. 25. Molecular characterisation of antibiotic resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis

    Författare :Pontus Juréen; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : To counteract the emergence of multi-drug resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) a number of approaches have been proposed, amongst which are the sound usage of the present anti-TB drugs and the development of prompt and specific tools for the diagnosis of resistance. To examine the role of drugs in the treatment of resistant TB, we investigated the general crossresistance between kanamycin and amikacin, which has been reported in numerous studies. LÄS MER
