Identification of quantitative proteomic differences between Mycobacterium tuberculosis lineages with altered virulence Ghent University
Impact of mucin, bile salts and cholesterol on the virulence of Vibrio anguillarum towards gnotobiotic sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) larvae Ghent University
Relation between virulence of Vibrio anguillarum strains and response to the host factors mucin, bile salts and cholesterol Ghent University
Virulence factors of Helicobacter suis with emphasis on U+03B3-glutamyl transpeptidase Ghent University
Effect, persistence, and virulence of coagulase-negative Staphylococcus species associated with ruminant udder health Vrije Universiteit Brussel
The aim of this review is to assess the effect of coagulase-negative staphylococci (CNS) species on udder health and milk yield in ruminants, and to evaluate the capacity of CNS to cause persistent intramammary infections (IMI). Furthermore, the literature on factors suspected of playing a role in the pathogenicity of IMI-associated CNS, such as biofilm formation and the presence of various putative virulence genes, is discussed. The focus is on ...
Bacteria that inhibit quorum sensing decrease biofilm formation and virulence in Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 Ghent University
Virulence comparison and quantification of horizontal bovine viral diarrhoea virus transmission following experimental infection in calves Ghent University
An integrative structural biology approach in the study of bacterial persistence and virulence Ghent University
Antibiotics have provided an enormous contribution to humansU+2019 fight against infectious microorganisms resulting in a dramatic decrease in mortality due to microbial infections around the globe. However, the widespread and uncontrolled use of antibiotics, particularly as growth promoters in feedstock caused an environmental stress for bacterial evolution and Multi Drug Resistance (MDR) and Multi Drug Tolerance (MDT) are two of the major ...
Virulence profiling and disease association of verocytotoxin-producing Escherichia coli O157 and non-O157 isolates in BelgiumVirulence profiling and disease association of verocytotoxin-producing Escherichia coli O157 and non-O157 isolates in Belgium Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Whereas the association of verocytotoxin-producing Escherichia coli (VTEC) O157:H7 with the hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) is well established, the medical importance of many non-O157 serotypes remains unclear. Using PCR we have investigated the distribution of the pathogenicity island O island 122 (OI-122) and other virulence genes in VTEC belonging to seropathotypes (SPT) A to D and assessed their association with human disease. Two hundred ...
