Antoon D. L. Akkermans

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

• Bacteria
• Gene
• DNA

Temperature gradient gel electrophoresis, Microbiology, Ribosomal RNA, 16S ribosomal RNA and Ribosomal DNA are his primary areas of study. His study connects Polymerase chain reaction and Temperature gradient gel electrophoresis. Antoon D. L. Akkermans interconnects Human gastrointestinal tract, Microbial ecology, Lactobacillus and Biochemistry in the investigation of issues within Microbiology.

Antoon D. L. Akkermans works mostly in the field of Ribosomal RNA, limiting it down to topics relating to Bacteria and, in certain cases, Dot blot and DNA. He works mostly in the field of 16S ribosomal RNA, limiting it down to concerns involving Amplicon and, occasionally, Human feces. His study in Ribosomal DNA is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Bifidobacterium and Sequence analysis.

His most cited work include:

• Molecular Microbial Ecology Manual (1548 citations)
• Temperature Gradient Gel Electrophoresis Analysis of 16S rRNA from Human Fecal Samples Reveals Stable and Host-Specific Communities of Active Bacteria (1222 citations)
• Molecular monitoring of succession of bacterial communities in human neonates. (723 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Antoon D. L. Akkermans mostly deals with Microbiology, 16S ribosomal RNA, Bacteria, Temperature gradient gel electrophoresis and Biochemistry. The study incorporates disciplines such as Probiotic, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Weaning, Lactobacillus and Sulfate-reducing bacteria in addition to Microbiology. His studies deal with areas such as Ribosomal RNA, Molecular biology, Botany and Ribosomal DNA as well as 16S ribosomal RNA.

His work deals with themes such as Gene, Polymerase chain reaction and DNA, which intersect with Molecular biology. His research integrates issues of Identification, Dot blot and Propionate in his study of Bacteria. In his research on the topic of Temperature gradient gel electrophoresis, Community Fingerprinting is strongly related with Microbial ecology.

He most often published in these fields:

• Microbiology (33.33%)
• 16S ribosomal RNA (32.08%)
• Bacteria (26.42%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2003-2014)?

• Microbiology (33.33%)
• Biochemistry (19.50%)
• Molecular biology (13.84%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His scientific interests lie mostly in Microbiology, Biochemistry, Molecular biology, Soil bacteria and Polymerase chain reaction. His Microbiology research incorporates themes from Temperature gradient gel electrophoresis, 16S ribosomal RNA, Lactobacillus, Bacteria and Gram-negative bacteria. His 16S ribosomal RNA research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Ribosomal RNA and Propionate.

As a part of the same scientific study, Antoon D. L. Akkermans usually deals with the Biochemistry, concentrating on Food science and frequently concerns with Creep feeding and Dry matter. The concepts of his Molecular biology study are interwoven with issues in Dot blot, Gene, DNA and DNA–DNA hybridization. His Polymerase chain reaction course of study focuses on Microbial ecology and Electrophoresis, Species diversity, Community Fingerprinting and Ecology.

Between 2003 and 2014, his most popular works were:

• Molecular Microbial Ecology Manual (1548 citations)
• Denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) in microbial ecology. (554 citations)
• Post-natal development of the porcine microbiota composition and activities (222 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

• Bacteria
• Gene
• DNA

Microbiology, Weaning, Lactobacillus, Temperature gradient gel electrophoresis and 16S ribosomal RNA are his primary areas of study. His work carried out in the field of Microbiology brings together such families of science as Bacteria and Biofilm. His work on Microorganism as part of his general Bacteria study is frequently connected to Tap water, thereby bridging the divide between different branches of science.

His Weaning research includes elements of Lactobacillus reuteri, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Ileum and Escherichia coli. Temperature gradient gel electrophoresis is a subfield of Biochemistry that Antoon D. L. Akkermans studies. His 16S ribosomal RNA research incorporates elements of Cloning, Ribosomal RNA, Antibiotics and Small intestine.
