• Bacteriocins : from discovery to characterization and applications 

      Oftedal, Thomas Førland (PhD thesis;2023:74, Doctoral thesis, 2023)
      Multidrug resistant bacteria have become a major concern in both human and veterinary medicine. Due to the waning efficacy of many antibiotics, new antimicrobial agents are needed. Bacteriocins are ribosomally ...
    • 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 ...
    • Functional insights into novel factors affecting cell division in Gram-positive bacteria 

      Myrbråten, Ine Storaker (PhD Thesis;2021:91, Doctoral thesis, 2021)
      The opportunistic pathogen Staphylococcus aureus is a major contributor to a range of different infections in human and animals that have become difficult to treat because of the rise of antibiotic resistant strains. New ...
    • The site-2-protease RseP as a novel antimicrobial target 

      Kristensen, Sofie Sagvaag (PhD Thesis;2023:22, Doctoral thesis, 2023)
      The discovery and development of antibiotics have revolutionized modern medicine. Today, several decades after the first patients were treated with antibiotics, bacterial infections are again becoming increasingly difficult ...
