(Master thesis, 2009-04-07)Bacillary dysentery caused by Shigella bacteria (shigellosis) is a major health problem in developing countries. Even though contaminated drinking water is expected to play an important role for the dissemination of this ... -
Molecular characterization of antibiotic resistant bacteria in newly HIV diagnosed adults in a community setting in Tanzania. Implications for infection prevention and control in HIV : Antibiotic resistant bacteria, HIV, Community, Sub-Saharan Africa
(Doctoral thesis, 2022-08-26)Mennesker som lever med HIV-infeksjon i utviklingsland har økt risiko for å bli smittet med antibiotikaresistente bakterier. Høyere forbruk av antibiotika på grunn av HIV-relatert sykdom gir et seleksjonspress som kan føre ... -
Molecular characterization of Corynebacterium diphtheriae isolates, Russia, 1957-1987
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2002)In the 1990s, the Newly Independent and Baltic States of the former Soviet Union experienced the largest diphtheria outbreak since the 1960s; it was caused by Corynebacterium diphtheriae strains of a unique clonal group. ... -
Molecular characterization of the apical organ of the anthozoan Nematostella vectensis
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014-12-03)Apical organs are sensory structures present in many marine invertebrate larvae where they are considered to be involved in their settlement, metamorphosis and locomotion. In bilaterians they are characterised by a tuft ... -
