Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Bacteria
  • Antibiotics
  • Microbiology

His primary areas of investigation include Microbiology, Bacteria, Virology, Bartonellosis and Serotype. The concepts of his Microbiology study are interwoven with issues in Bartonella vinsonii, DNA–DNA hybridization, Bartonella elizabethae, Enterobacteriaceae and Polymerase chain reaction. His research integrates issues of Chemotaxonomy and Genotype in his study of Bacteria.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Legionella and Thermal denaturation. Arnold G. Steigerwalt has included themes like Bartonella Infection, Bartonella and Bartonella koehlerae in his Bartonellosis study. Arnold G. Steigerwalt combines subjects such as Food poisoning, Vibrio fluvialis, Vibrio furnissii and Human feces with his study of Serotype.

His most cited work include:

  • Borrelia burgdorferi sp. nov.: Etiologic Agent of Lyme Disease (478 citations)
  • Escherichia vulneris: a New Species of Enterobacteriaceae Associated with Human Wounds (477 citations)
  • Evaluation and Improvement of Real-Time PCR Assays Targeting lytA, ply, and psaA Genes for Detection of Pneumococcal DNA (390 citations)

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

Arnold G. Steigerwalt mainly investigates Microbiology, Bacteria, 16S ribosomal RNA, Genetics and DNA. His Microbiology study incorporates themes from DNA–DNA hybridization, Virology, Legionella, Ribosomal RNA and Enterobacteriaceae. His work deals with themes such as Erwinia, Yersinia enterocolitica, Botany and Enterobacter, which intersect with Enterobacteriaceae.

His Bacteria research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Taxonomy, Chemotaxonomy, Genotype and Gram-negative bacteria. His work in 16S ribosomal RNA covers topics such as Leptospiraceae which are related to areas like Leptospira kirschneri. His study in DNA is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Molecular biology and Escherichia coli.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Microbiology (92.72%)
  • Bacteria (32.52%)
  • 16S ribosomal RNA (18.45%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2002-2017)?

  • Microbiology (92.72%)
  • 16S ribosomal RNA (18.45%)
  • Bacteria (32.52%)

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

His primary scientific interests are in Microbiology, 16S ribosomal RNA, Bacteria, Genetics and Ribosomal RNA. Streptococcaceae is the focus of his Microbiology research. The 16S ribosomal RNA study combines topics in areas such as Nocardia, Nocardiaceae, Leptospiraceae and Phylogenetic tree.

His Bacteria research integrates issues from Lactose and Leptospirosis. His work investigates the relationship between Ribosomal RNA and topics such as Streptococcus that intersect with problems in 16s rrna gene sequencing. Within one scientific family, Arnold G. Steigerwalt focuses on topics pertaining to Polymerase chain reaction under Virology, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Serotype and Real-time polymerase chain reaction.

Between 2002 and 2017, his most popular works were:

  • Evaluation and Improvement of Real-Time PCR Assays Targeting lytA, ply, and psaA Genes for Detection of Pneumococcal DNA (390 citations)
  • Detection of pathogenic leptospires by real-time quantitative PCR. (212 citations)
  • Accuracy of Phenotypic and Genotypic Testing for Identification of Streptococcus pneumoniae and Description of Streptococcus pseudopneumoniae sp. nov. (211 citations)

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

  • Bacteria
  • Antibiotics
  • Gene

Arnold G. Steigerwalt mainly focuses on Microbiology, Bacteria, 16S ribosomal RNA, Leptospira and Leptospiraceae. His study deals with a combination of Microbiology and Streptococcus pseudopneumoniae. The study incorporates disciplines such as Brucella and Brucellosis in addition to Bacteria.

His research in 16S ribosomal RNA intersects with topics in Phylogenetics and Phylogenetic tree. His studies in Leptospiraceae integrate themes in fields like Leptospira kirschneri, Gel electrophoresis and Pulsed-field gel electrophoresis. His studies examine the connections between Serotype and genetics, as well as such issues in Polymerase chain reaction, with regards to Real-time polymerase chain reaction.
