Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Amino acid
  • Organic chemistry

Edward P. Abraham mostly deals with Microbiology, Stereochemistry, Enzyme, Biochemistry and Penicillin. Microbiology is often connected to Esterase in his work. His study in Stereochemistry is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Tripeptide, Reagent, Cofactor and Valine.

Edward P. Abraham interconnects Hydrolysis, Penicillamine and Isolation in the investigation of issues within Penicillin. The concepts of his Antibiotics study are interwoven with issues in Nisin and Gram-negative bacteria. His work on Cephaloridine is typically connected to Mycelium as part of general Cephalosporin study, connecting several disciplines of science.

His most cited work include:

  • An Enzyme from Bacteria able to Destroy Penicillin (744 citations)
  • FURTHER OBSERVATIONS ON PENICILLIN (540 citations)
  • The structure of cephalosporin C (204 citations)

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

Edward P. Abraham focuses on Stereochemistry, Microbiology, Biochemistry, Cephalosporin and Antibiotics. The Stereochemistry study combines topics in areas such as Tripeptide, Hydrolysis, Cephalosporium acremonium and Valine. His research in Penicillin and Beta lactam antibiotics are components of Microbiology.

His study on Cephalosporin C is often connected to Degradation as part of broader study in Cephalosporin. His Antibiotics research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Beta-lactamase and Gram-negative bacteria. The various areas that Edward P. Abraham examines in his Enzyme study include Reagent and Deacetoxycephalosporin-C synthase.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Stereochemistry (34.62%)
  • Microbiology (23.72%)
  • Biochemistry (23.72%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 1978-2011)?

  • Stereochemistry (34.62%)
  • Biochemistry (23.72%)
  • Penicillin (17.31%)

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

Edward P. Abraham spends much of his time researching Stereochemistry, Biochemistry, Penicillin, Biosynthesis and Enzyme. His studies deal with areas such as Tripeptide, Cephalosporium acremonium and Valine as well as Stereochemistry. Edward P. Abraham's looking at Penicillin as part of his Microbiology and Antibiotics and Penicillin study.

In his articles, Edward P. Abraham combines various disciplines, including Microbiology and Cytolysis. His Enzyme research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Reagent and Deacetoxycephalosporin-C synthase. When carried out as part of a general Cephalosporin research project, his work on Cephalosporin C is frequently linked to work in Volume and Research development, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study.

Between 1978 and 2011, his most popular works were:

  • Isolation, sequence determination and expression in Escherichia coli of the isopenicillin N synthetase gene from Cephalosporium acremonium (192 citations)
  • The biosynthesis of penicillins and cephalosporins (181 citations)
  • Purification of isopenicillin N synthetase. (106 citations)
