Determining the fitness and competitive advantage of the epidemic ExPEC clone E. coli ST131
Extraintestinal pathogenic E. coli (ExPEC) is the major aetiological agent of urinary tract infections (UTIs) in humans. The emergence of the CTX-M producing E. coli ST131 clone represents a major challenge to public health worldwide because of its ability to cause a wide range of …

Comparative genotypic and phenotypic characteristics of human associated extraintestinal Escherichia coli isolated from cats and dogs
Escherichia coli extraintestinal infections (ExPEC) cause significant disease in humans and companion animals (cats and dogs) predominantly urinary tract infections, but also sepsis and neonatal meningitis. E. coli also causes avian pathogenic E. coli (APEC), a very important cause of mortality and …

Populations of Escherichia coli in clinical samples of Urinary Tract Infections and bacteraemia
Extraintestinal pathogenic E. coli (ExPEC) strains are the main etiologic agent of urinary tract infections (UTIs). ExPEC strains are also reported to be the most common cause of bacteraemia in the world, which often originate from UTI. The population structure of UTI E. coli strains is well …

Purposing digital media for education: critically exploring values and expectations in applying digital media for children’s learning and development.
This thesis explores the impact of expectations of technology on educational practices and the challenges in researching these impacts. Expec tations of technology are not universal, but there is a prevalent solutionist perspective that provides a simplistic account of technology. The critical …

Investigating behaviors of zoonotic and human pathogens on plants
… of these extraintestinal pathogenic E. coli (EXPEC) to cause intestinal illnesses as well as foodborne urinary tract infections (FUTIs) in humans. In these studies we demonstrate the enhanced ability of avian pathogenic E. coli (APEC) to persist on leafy greens indicating enhanced …

Vergleichende geno- und phänotypische Charakterisierung von Escherichia coli aus Menschen, Hausschweinen und Wildtieren
… (InPEC) und extraintestinal pathogene E. coli (ExPEC) unterschieden. Die Pathogenese von E. coli-Infektionen ist durch Virulenzfaktoren determiniert, welche von jeweils spezifischen virulenzassoziierten Genen (inVAGs und exVAGs) kodiert werden. Häufig werden exVAGs auch in E. coli-Isolaten aus …
