1. Rödsot i Sverige 1750-1900: En sjukdoms demografiska och medicinska historia
Sammanfattning : major scourge in developing countries. In Sweden and the rest of the Western world, however, the disease is almost gone. These circumstances were very much different before the decline of infectious diseases among causes of death in the 19th century. Prior to that, dysentery affected Sweden at times with powerful epidemic outbreaks. LÄS MER
2. On the immune response in porcine enteric diseases : with special reference to swine dysentery, proliferative enteropathy and PMWS
Sammanfattning : Enteric infectious diseases are a common problem worldwide among pigs. It is important to gain a better knowledge about the pathogeneses of the diseases and the local immune response, in which the intestine has a very important role. LÄS MER
3. Genus Brachyspira in birds : phenotypes, phylogeny and pathogenicity
Sammanfattning : Spirochaetes of genus Brachyspira colonize the large intestine of some mammals and birds, and cause intestinal disease and production losses in pigs and chickens. The precise significance of Brachyspira spp. colonization in birds, the bacterial species involved, and the epidemiology are incompletely understood. LÄS MER
4. In silico analysis of Treponema and Brachyspira genomes : assembly, annotation and phylogeny
Sammanfattning : Spirochaetal bacteria are highly diverse in terms of life style, growth requirements and virulence, but they all belong to a monophyletic ancient lineage. Many spirochaetes are difficult to culture or have fastidious growth requirements. LÄS MER
5. Glucosyl transferase gene(s) of temperate bacteriophages SfX and SfV and their role in the modification of the O-antigen of Shigella flexneri
Sammanfattning : Shigella flexneri is the main cause of bacillary dysentery in developing countries with a high attack rate and mortality in young children. Thus developing a S. flexneri vaccine has been given priority by WHO. It has been documented that Shigella lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is highly immunogenic. LÄS MER
