An investigation of wild-type P1 prophage induction
(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, ... -
Characterization of conjugative plasmids in the gut microbiota from a preterm twin pair
(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 ... -
Detektering av betalaktamaser med utvidet spektrum (ESBL og karbapenemaser) i bakterier isolert fra akvatiske miljøer ved bruk av fenotypiske og genotypiske metoder
(Master thesis, 2018)Background: Antibiotic resistance is an escalating threat to the global health. Since the introduction of penicillin approximately 70 years ago, the development of resistance has increased along with the use of antibiotics. ... -
Funn av en kolistin-resistent bakterie, med en mulig induserbar klasse A-β-laktamase isolert fra utendørs miljø
(Master thesis, 2019)Background: The abuse of antibiotics has become a global issue which leads to the development and spread of antibiotic resistance (AR) bacteria in the environment. β-lactams are the most commonly used antibiotic group. ... -
Genetic and phenotypic characterisation of an ABC transporter system implicated in narasin resistance of Enterococcus faecium
(Master thesis, 2017)Antibiotic resistant strains of bacteria are increasingly prevalent all over the world. Better understanding of the resistance occurrence and spread is needed to stop this development. A narasin (Nar) resistance gene was ... -
Påvisning av antibiotikaresistente bakterier i melkeprøver fra norske kyr ved bruk av fenotypiske og genotypiske metoder
(Master thesis, 2020)Bakgrunn: Verden over er antimikrobiell resistens et økende helseproblem. Mangelen på overvåkning hos husdyr og matvarer er en begrensning på å forstå omfanget. Forekomst av antibiotikaresistente bakterier hos matproduserende ... -
Påvisning av hemolysiner og ß-laktamaser med utvidet spektrum (ESBL og karbapenemaser) blant bakterier isolert fra spiseklar salat i Norge
(Master thesis, 2020)Bakgrunn: Antibiotikaresistens er et økende problem og en trussel for den globale folkehelsen. Spredningen av multiresistente bakterier er en bekymring, spesielt humanpatogene bakterier som har ß-laktamaser med utvidet ... -
Påvisning av multiresistent og ESBL-produserende uropatogen Escherichia coli (UPEC) i akvatisk miljø
(Master thesis, 2019)The increasing prevalence of antibiotic resistant bacteria is a growing problem for the global public health. Among antibiotic drugs, β-lactams are the most widely used, but there is observed an increased resistance to ... -
Rensing og karakterisering av colwellicin, et antimikrobielt stoff isolert fra Shewanella colwelliana
(Master thesis, 2020)Da antibiotika ble introdusert på markedet, gav det håp om at infeksiøse sykdommer kunne bli bekjempet en gang for alle. Denne optimismen ble etter hvert overskygget av et økende antibiotikaresistensproblem. Resistensproblemet ... -
Screening and characterization of bacteriocins produced by lactic acid bacteria against Lactococcus garvieae
(Master thesis, 2018)Infectious diseases caused by bacteria have ravaged humankind multiple times in history until the discovery of antibiotics. Now, several decades later, bacteria resistant to nearly all antibiotics have been reported due ... -
YthA : a lone ranger or team player in the cell envelope stress response of Lactococcus lactis IL1403?
(Master thesis, 2019)Considering the increasing problem of antibiotic-resistant pathogens emerging world- wide, research into novel antimicrobial substances that can become clinically relevant is now of the utmost importance. The small ...
