The fields of study she is best known for:
Alison D. O'Brien mainly investigates Microbiology, Escherichia coli, Toxin, Enterobacteriaceae and Shiga-like toxin.
Her research in Microbiology intersects with topics in Mutant, Salmonella, Bacteria, In vivo and Virulence.
Her study looks at the relationship between Escherichia coli and fields such as Virology, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems.
Alison D. O'Brien combines subjects such as Enterotoxin, Antiserum, Shigella dysenteriae, Kidney and Shiga toxin with her study of Toxin.
Her Enterobacteriaceae research incorporates elements of Plasmid and Feces.
In her research, HeLa is intimately related to Vero cell, which falls under the overarching field of Shiga-like toxin.
Her most cited work include:
- Shiga and Shiga-like toxins. (594 citations)
- Shiga-like toxin-converting phages from Escherichia coli strains that cause hemorrhagic colitis or infantile diarrhea (503 citations)
- Multicenter Evaluation of a Sequence-Based Protocol for Subtyping Shiga Toxins and Standardizing Stx Nomenclature (497 citations)
What are the main themes of her work throughout her whole career to date?
Her scientific interests lie mostly in Microbiology, Escherichia coli, Shiga toxin, Toxin and Virology.
Her Microbiology research includes themes of Salmonella, Bacteria, Gene, Virulence and Enterobacteriaceae.
Her Escherichia coli study frequently links to other fields, such as Molecular biology.
While the research belongs to areas of Shiga toxin, Alison D. O'Brien spends her time largely on the problem of Antibody, intersecting her research to questions surrounding Lethal dose.
Her research integrates issues of Vero cell, Shigella, Enterotoxin and Shigella dysenteriae in her study of Toxin.
Her work on Serotype as part of general Virology research is frequently linked to Bloody diarrhea, bridging the gap between disciplines.
She most often published in these fields:
- Microbiology (79.38%)
- Escherichia coli (54.64%)
- Shiga toxin (33.51%)
