A study of mechanisms involved in the pathogenicity of Enterococcus faecalis by DNA microarrays
Solheim, Margrete (PhD Thesis;2010:54, Doctoral thesis, 2010)Traditionally considered a harmless commensal of the mammalian gastrointestinal tract, Enterococcus faecalis now rank among the leading causes of nosocomial infections worldwide. Several genetic determinants enhancing the ... -
An explorative study of Enterococcus faecalis transcriptional responses to infection-relevant growth environments
Vebø, Heidi Cecilie (PhD Thesis;2010:10, Doctoral thesis, 2010)Enterococcus faecalis is commonly found in the gastrointestinal tract of humans. It is also an opportunistic pathogen and one of the leading causes of nosocomial infections worldwide. The treatment of E. faecalis infections ... -
Characterization of fecal lactic acid bacteria isolated from healthy Ethiopian infants : bacteriocin production and antibiotic suscepebility
Birri, Dagim Jirata (PhD Thesis;2011:55, Doctoral thesis, 2011)In this thesis lactic acid bacteria (LAB) were isolated from fecal samples of healthy Ethiopian infants, identified to species level, screened for bacteriocin production and tested for antibiotic susceptibility. Enterococci ... -
Class II bacteriocins : target recognition, resistance and immunity
Kjos, Morten (PhD Thesis;2011:11, Doctoral thesis, 2011)Bacteriocins are bacterial antimicrobial peptides which are active against strains often closely related to the producer. Bacteriocins produced by food grade lactic acid bacteria are considered promising for applications ... -
Full circle : genetics, biosynthesis, mode of action and resistance mechanisms of the bacteriocin garvicin ML
Gabrielsen, Christina (PhD Thesis;2013:68, Doctoral thesis, 2013)Bacteriocins are ribosomally synthesized antimicrobial peptides, produced by many lactic acid bacteria, which show high promise as antimicrobial agents for use in both food industry and for medical applications. In this ... -
Lactobacillus sakei metabolism and diversity
McLeod, Anette (PhD Thesis;2010:21, Doctoral thesis, 2010)Lactic acid bacteria are associated with food fermentation, acidification and preservation. Lactobacillus sakei is an industrially important species mainly due to its ability to ferment and preserve meat. It is used as ... -
Regulation of energy metabolism in enterococcus faecalis studied by transcriptome, proteome and metabolome approaches
Mehmeti, Ibrahim (PhD Thesis;2011:48, Doctoral thesis, 2011)Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB) are widely used as starter culture in food fermentation. Among LAB also pathogenic bacteria are found particular in enterococci and streptococci. Enterococcus faecalis is a gut commensal bacterium ... -
Studies of proteins involved in environmental responses of Enterococcus faecalis V583
Bøhle, Liv Borghild Anette Andreassen (PhD Thesis;2011:58, Doctoral thesis, 2011)Enterococcus faecalis has traditionally been considered a harmless inhabitant of the gastrointestinal tract of mammals. However, in the past decade E. faecalis has become a major cause of infections in hospitalized patients. ...
