21. Molecular detection and epidemiological studies of atypical bacteria causing respiratory tract infections
Sammanfattning : Respiratory infections are common causes of morbidity and mortality. Chlamydia pneumoniae, Mycoplasma pneumoniae and Bordetella pertussis cause respiratory infection, often with similar symptoms. Molecular diagnostic methods are preferred since these bacteria are difficult to culture. LÄS MER
22. Studies on bacterial transmission pathways in a high endemic area, with a focus on Helicobacter pylori
Sammanfattning : Even though half of the world’s population is infected with Helicobacter pylori, which causes gastritis, peptic ulcer and gastric cancer, the transmission routes of these bacteria remain unknown despite extensive epidemiological studies. Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) and Vibrio cholerae are two of the most common causes of acute watery diarrhea in developing countries. LÄS MER
23. Kleptoplasty in Dinophysis spp : Ecological role and evolutionary implications
Sammanfattning : This thesis deals with the question of whether planktonic protits of the genus Dinophysis have permanent plastids (=chloroplasts) or practice kleptoplasty, i.e. acquire plastids via predation on other microorganisms. Sequencing the plastid 16S rDNA of Dinophysis spp. LÄS MER
24. Presence and viability of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) in aquatic environments
Sammanfattning : Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) is one of the major causes of diarrhoea among children in developing countries and in travelers to these regions. The bacteria are spread via contaminated water and food, and surface and drinking water in developing countries has been found to harbor these organisms. LÄS MER
25. On the epidemiology, clinical presentation and transmission of respiratory viral infections
Sammanfattning : Respiratory viral infections encompass a large heterogenous group of pathogens that constitute a major burden of disease globally. The various routes of transmission including airborne spread make them difficult to control. LÄS MER
