Danish strategies to control Campylobacter in broilers and broiler meat: facts and effects.

4 May 2009 Thermotolerant Campylobacter spp. have been the most common bacterial cause of human gastrointestinal disease in Denmark since 1999. In 2003, the Danish voluntary strategy to control Campylobacter was intensified. The focus was on biosecurity, ... Read more...

Update on Campylobacter jejuni vaccine development for preventing human campylobacteriosis.

29 Apr 2009 Campylobacteriosis constitutes a serious medical and socioeconomic problem worldwide. Rapidly increasing antibiotic resistance of bacterial strains compels us to develop alternative therapeutic strategies and to search for efficient ... Read more...

M-cell targeting of whole killed bacteria induces protective immunity against gastrointestinal pathogens.

18 Apr 2009 As the majority of human pathogens infect via a mucosal surface, delivery of killed vaccines by mucosal routes could potentially improve protection against many such organisms. Our ability to develop effective killed mucosal vaccines is inhibited by ... Read more...
