  1. 1. The battle against sepsis : exploring the genotypic diversity of pseudomonas and proteus clinical isolates

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Suud Ahmed; [2023]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Sepsis is a dangerous and potentially fatal condition that has a mysterious origin, underscoring the significance of prompt and accurate diagnosis and treatment. Bacterial whole-genome sequencing, which is widely used in clinical microbiology, stands at the forefront of sequencing technologies, particularly to combat sepsis. READ MORE

  3. 2. Antibiotic use and resistance in the food and agricultural sectors in Bangladesh : present risk factors and possible improvements

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Clinical Sciences

    Author : Linnea Eberson; [2022]
    Keywords : AMR; Bangladesh; AMU; multidrug resistant MDR ; low-and middle-income countries;

    Abstract : Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is one of the biggest threats against public health in the world. Antimicrobial substances are used within all different sectors and contribute to development of AMR. READ MORE

  4. 3. Antibiotic Susceptibility Testing: Effects Of Variability In Technical Factors On Minimum Inhibitory Concentration Using Broth Microdilution

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk biokemi och mikrobiologi

    Author : Seemal Aziz; [2021]
    Keywords : Antibiotic susceptibility settings; broth microdilution; antimicrobial resistance; minimum inhibitory concentration; MIC; AST; Sepsis;

    Abstract : Background Broth microdilution (BMD) is a gold-standard reference method to determine minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of antibiotics. For this, a standardized concentration of bacterial inoculum (2e5–8e5 colony-forming units, CFU/ml) is added to progressively higher concentrations of antibiotics. READ MORE

  5. 4. Sepsis-associated Escherichia coli whole-genome sequencing analysis using in-house developed pipeline and 1928 diagnostics tool

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Geivi Lember; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Sepsis is a life-threatening condition that is caused by a dysregulated host response to infection. Timely detection of sepsis and antibiotic treatment is important for the patient’s recovery from sepsis. READ MORE

  6. 5. The influence of antimicrobial agents on the development of antibiotic resistance in the vaginal bacterial flora of artificially inseminated mares : a study on mares in a stud environment

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Clinical Sciences

    Author : Elin Wilén; [2021]
    Keywords : antibiotics; antimicrobial resistance; bacteriology; breeding; equine reproduction; reproductive techniques; semen extender; stud farm;

    Abstract : In Sweden and in many other countries, artificial insemination (AI) is frequently used in horse breeding. The technology makes it possible to use genetic material from horses in different geographical locations in an effective way, minimizing the risk of infection or even injury to both horses and stud personnel.
