Age-Dependent Fecal Bacterial Correlation to Inflammatory Bowel Disease for Newly Diagnosed Untreated Children

Nwosu, Felix; Thorkildsen, Lill-Therese; Avershina, Ekaterina; Ricanek, Petr; Perminow, Gøri; Brackmann, Stephan; Vatn, Morten H; Rudi, Knut (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013)

The knowledge about correlation patterns between the fecal microbiota and inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD)—comprising the two subforms Crohn’s disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC)—for newly diagnosed untreated children ...

An investigation of wild-type P1 prophage induction

Ormaasen, Ida (Master thesis, 2019)

The spread of antibiotic resistance genes is increasing, and the mechanisms involved need to be established. Connections between the temperate bacteriophage P1 and antibiotic resistance genes have been implied. Therefore, ...

Association of gut microbiota with metabolism in juvenile Atlantic salmon

Dvergedal, Hanne; Sandve, Simen Rød; Angell, I.L.; Klemetsdal, Gunnar; Rudi, Knut (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)

The gut microbiome plays a key role in animal health and metabolism through the intricate functional interconnection between the feed, gut microbes, and the host. Unfortunately, in aquaculture, the links between gut microbes ...

Associations in infant gut microbiota's taxonomic and inferred metabolic composition with immune cells at 12 months

Fredheim, Cecilie (Master thesis, 2020)

Den menneskelige mage-tarmkanalen rommer et sammensatt og mangfoldig økologisk felleskap av kommensal tarmflora tett tilknyttet verten. Fra dyrestudier er det bevist at tarmfloraens komponenter og metabolitter er essensielle ...

Associations of gut microbiota- and short-chain fatty acid composition during the first year of life with immune cells in one-year children

Jonsmoen, Unni Lise Albertsdóttir (Master thesis, 2020)

Mikroorganismene i tarmen etablerer komplekse mutualistiske forhold til verten og spiller en viktig rolle i modningen av vertens immunsystem. Modningsprosessen påvirkes enten direkte av bakterielle komponenter eller indirekte ...

Atlantic salmon raised with diets low in long-chain polyunsaturated n-3 fatty acids in freshwater have a Mycoplasma-dominated gut microbiota at sea

Jin, Yang; Angell, Inga Leena; Sandve, Simen Rød; Snipen, Lars-Gustav; Olsen, Yngvar; Rudi, Knut (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)

Breastfeeding associated microbiota in human milk following supplementation with Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG, Lactobacillus acidophilus La-5 and Bifidobacterium animalis subspecies lactis Bb-12

Simpson, Melanie Rae; Avershina, Ekaterina; Storrø, Ola; Johnsen, Roar; Rudi, Knut; Øien, Torbjørn (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)

Breastfeeding is one of the major factors affecting the early development of the infant gut microbiota, and weaning is associated with a shift in the gut microbiota toward a more adult composition. Through breastfeeding, ...

Carbohydrate utilization and short chain fatty acid production in Bifidobacteria

Mielnicka, Kasia (Master thesis, 2019)

In the first stage of life infants go through rapid growth and development and have high nutritional needs. During this first 6 months of life breast milk is considered to provide a complete postnatal nutrition. Positive ...

Characterization of conjugative plasmids in the gut microbiota from a preterm twin pair

Hagbø, Mari Elisabeth Sørås (Master thesis, 2017)

The increasing spread of antibiotic resistance genes is becoming one of the most challenging issues for human health worldwide. The human gut holds a very high density of bacteria, which allows high rates of gene transmissions ...

Characterization of Lactic Acid Bacteria from infants gut with antimicrobial activity against Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG

Andersen, Amanda Morken (Master thesis, 2018)

There are major individual differences in how the probiotic strain Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG) colonizes the intestine of infants. Understanding these differences will be of great importance in relation to the use of ...

Characterization of the infant gut microbiota mobilome

Ravi, Anuradha (PhD thesis;2017:37, Doctoral thesis, 2017)

The human gut is densely populated with a wide diversity of bacteria. These bacteria can serve as a reservoirs for multiple Antibiotic Resistance (AR) genes that in turn are associated with wide range of Mobile Genetic ...

Characterization of the microbiota composition associated with the hias continuous biofilm process

Goa, Inger Andrea Nesbø (Master thesis, 2018)

Fosforrensing av avløpsvann er essensielt for å unngå eutrofiering som forstyrrer økosystem i overflatevann. Den vanligste behandlingsprosessen har vært kjemisk utfelling. Ulemper med denne prosessen, derimot, er at fosfor ...
