  1. 6. Antibiotic susceptibility and resistance in Neisseria meningitidis : phenotypic and genotypic characteristics

    Författare :Sara Thulin Hedberg; Magnus Unemo; Per Olcén; Hans Fredlund; Ian Feavers; Örebro universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Neisseria meningitidis; meningococcal disease; antibiotic resistance; antibiotic susceptbility; biological cost; PCR; sequencing; Molecular biology; Molekylärbiologi; Microbiology; immunology; infectious diseases; Mikrobiologi; immunologi; infektionssjukdomar; Medical microbiology; Medicinsk mikrobiologi; Bacteriology; Bakteriologi; Biomedicin; Biomedicine; Medicin; Medicine;

    Sammanfattning : Neisseria meningitidis, also known as the meningococcus, is a globally spread obligate human bacterium causing meningitis and/or septicaemia. It is responsible for epidemics in both developed and developing countries. LÄS MER

  3. 7. Haemophilus influenzae-induced acute otitis media. Aspects of virulence and protection in an animal model

    Författare :Åsa Melhus; Malmö Klinisk mikrobiologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; bacteriology; Microbiology; conjugate vaccine; protection; virulence; acute otitis media; Haemophilus influenzae; animal model; virology; mycology; Mikrobiologi; bakteriologi; virologi; mykologi;

    Sammanfattning : Acute otitis media (AOM) is the most common illness diagnosed during early childhood. One of the major etiologic agents is Haemophilus influenzae. Apart from AOM, this organism can cause a broad range of infectious diseases such as meningitis, epiglottitis, arthritis, and pneumonia. Despite the importance of H. LÄS MER

  4. 8. Mechanisms of Adaptation to Deformylase Inhibitors

    Författare :Anna Zorzet; Dan Andersson; Paul Rainey; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; antibiotic resistance; compensatory evolution; compensatory mutations; protein synthesis; initiation factor 2; initiator tRNA; formylation; peptide deformylase inhibitors; Bacteriology; Bakteriologi; Mikrobiologi; Microbiology; Biokemi; Biochemistry; Geography; Geografi;

    Sammanfattning : Antibiotic resistance is a growing problem on a global scale. Increasing numbers of bacteria resistant toward one or multiple antibiotics could return us to the high mortality rates for infectious diseases of the pre-antibiotic era. LÄS MER

  5. 9. The role of wastewater in surveillance and emergence of antibiotic resistant bacteria

    Författare :Marion Hutinel; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Microbiology; Bacteriology; Antibiotic resistance; Surveillance; Horizontal gene transfer; HGT; Conjugation; Plasmids; Epidemiology; CPE; E. coli; Carbapenamase; Linezolid; Colistin; Selection; sul4; OXA-48; gar; NDM; mcr; wastewater; sewage; sewer;

    Sammanfattning : As antibiotic resistance spreads among bacterial pathogens, it reduces treatment options and increases treatment failures of infectious diseases. Strategies employed to reduce this spread or adapt to its consequences need to be based on reliable surveillance data which is lacking in many countries, often due to limited resources. LÄS MER

  7. 10. A microarray analysis of the host response to infection with Francisella tularensis

    Författare :Henrik Andersson; Anders Sjöstedt; David Stenger; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Francisella tularensis; tularemia; host response; gene expression; microarray; Clinical bacteriology; Klinisk bakteriologi;

    Sammanfattning : Francisella tularensis is a gram-negative bacterium that is the cause of the serious and sometimes fatal disease, tularemia, in a wide range of animal species and in humans. The response of cells of the mouse macrophage cell line J774 to infection with Francisella tularensis LVS was analyzed by means of a DNA microarray. LÄS MER
