Abstract:
The cationic surfactant Lauric arginate (LAE) has gained approval for utilization in meat products (limit: 200 mg/kg). However, as for other antimicrobials, its activity is reduced when applied to complex food matrices. The current study therefore aims to better understand protein-antimicrobial agent-interactions and their influence on the antimicrobial activity of (i) LAE and (ii) methylparaben against Listeria innocua and Pseudomonas fluorescens in defined model systems (pH 6). Antimicrobials were utilized alone or in combination with nutrient broth containing either no protein or 2% bovine

Abstract:
Antibiotic resistance has exponentially increased during the last years. It is necessary to develop new antimicrobial drugs to prevent and treat infectious diseases caused by multidrug- or extensively-drug resistant (MDR/XDR)-bacteria. Host Defense Peptides (HDPs) have a versatile role, acting as antimicrobial peptides and regulators of several innate immunity functions. The results shown by previous studies using synthetic HDPs are only the tip of the iceberg, since the synergistic potential of HDPs and their production as recombinant proteins are fields practically unexplored.

Non-pathogenic lactic acid bacteria are economically important Gram-positive bacteria used extensively in the food industry.

The hypothesis examined by this thesis is that Lactococcus lactis can be modified to be an effective antimicrobial agent.

Increasing incidence of antimicrobial resistance requires identification of novel drugs, and the human genome presents thousands of potential targets. Intracellular pathogens rely on host proteins and pathways during their entry, replication and egress. Poxviruses are reliant on host Abl tyrosine kinases for release of enveloped virus, the last step in their egress. Release can be inhibited by Abl kinase targeting drug imatinib, with treatment shown to rescue mice infected with a lethal dose of vaccinia virus (VACV).

The continual threat of antimicrobial resistance means that optimizing current antimicrobial therapy is of paramount importance.

Elements of PK that require due consideration when optimizing antimicrobial therapy, including volume of distribution, antimicrobial clearance, and protein binding, are also discussed. Fi
