Study of microbial interaction networks among heterotrophic bacteria from river waters KU Leuven
Rivers represent aquatic ecosystems among the most suffering from anthropogenic activities, by their regular and important exposure to massive inputs of organic matter and chemical pollutants. Bacteria play a key role in rivers’ ‘self-purification’ by their action of mineralization of organic matter and export of carbon to the atmosphere, and besides they form an important trophic link as they are located at the bottom of the food chain. ...

Data-based modeling of recovery from mastitis in dairy cows KU Leuven
The prevention, detection and treatment of mastitis forms the basis for the contemporary udder-health management. After detection and startup of treatment, recovery; being the suppression of the causal pathogen (bacteriological healing), the disappearance of clinical symptoms and the regeneration of the udder tissue (clinical healing) isn't objetively monitored. Due to lack of information about this recovery, it is impossible for the dairy ...
