Antibiotic resistance in wastewater
(PhD Thesis;2020:9, Doctoral thesis, 2020)Antibiotic resistance is a characteristic possessed by some bacteria that enables them to withstand the effects of antibiotic treatment. Antibiotic use and abuse may result in development of antibiotic resistant bacteria. ... -
Characterization of heteropathogenic and multidrugresistant (MDR) bacterial isolates from clinical and environmental sources using combined nanopore and next-generation sequencing technologies
(Doctoral thesis, 2020)Escherichia coli (E. coli) are usually harmless commensals that colonize the gastrointestinal tract of humans and other warm-blooded mammals. However, pathogenic counterparts have acquired virulence associated genes (VAGs) ... -
Dewatering of digested biomass
(PhD Thesis;2019:36, Doctoral thesis, 2019)The world’s population is increasing and as cities grow in population and area, efficient and safe handling of sewage is becoming increasingly important. Wastewater treatment generates two products; purified water and ... -
Extended spectrum cephalosporin-resistant E. coli from poultry : virulence-associated traits and their zoonotic potential
(PhD Thesis;2022:76, Doctoral thesis, 2023)Antimicrobial resistant microbes have become a global problem. In Norway, ESCresistant E. coli was discovered on retail poultry meat through the Norwegian monitoring program for antimicrobial resistance in bacteria from ... -
Forekomst av Shigatoksinproduserende Escherichia coli i norske kjøttvarer, med hovedvekt på stx2a-genet
(Master thesis, 2018)Shigatoksinproduserende Escherichia coli (STEC), også kalt Verotoksinproduserende E. coli (VTEC) har tilstedeværelse av gener som koder for Shigatoksin (stx). Noen STEC har i tillegg det intimin-kodende genet eae, og denne ... -
Neonatal colisepticemia in broiler chickens : -Avian pathogenic Escherichia coli and risk factors for high first week mortality
(PhD Thesis;2023:48, Doctoral thesis, 2023)Broiler chicken meat is regarded lean and more sustainable than meat from other terrestrial production animals. Because of this, the industry is continuing to grow globally. To maintain animal welfare, production sustainability ... -
Quinolone resistant Escherichia coli in Norwegian livestock : a comparative genomics study
(PhD Thesis;2020:16, Doctoral thesis, 2020)The occurrence of antimicrobial resistance in Norwegian livestock is generally low. This is a consequence of good animal health and welfare, which reduces the need for antimicrobial use. Quinolones are important antimicrobial ... -
Reinsing av gråvatn i ulike lausmassefilter : eit kolonneforsøk
(Master thesis, 2016-08-29)Ferskvatn er eit knapt gode i verda, og ureining av ferskvatn med patogene mikroorganismar er eit trugsmål mot liv og helse. Infiltrasjon av avløpsvatn i jord kan gi særs god reinsing av fosfor, organisk materiale, suspendert ... -
Shiga toxin-producing E. coli O26 : transduction of Stx bacteriophages
(Master thesis, 2017)Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) have been associated with several cases of foodborne disease outbreaks. In severe cases, infection with STEC has led to life-threatening conditions including haemorrhagic colitis ...
