1990 - Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
Frank G. Oppenheim focuses on Biochemistry, Histatin, Saliva, Amino acid and Candida albicans. Biochemistry and Microbiology are frequently intertwined in his study. His work on Histatin 3 as part of general Histatin study is frequently linked to Zinc, bridging the gap between disciplines.
His Saliva research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Tooth enamel, Proteomics, Dentistry and Bioinformatics. In his study, Superoxide dismutase, Reactive oxygen species and Cell killing is inextricably linked to Mitochondrion, which falls within the broad field of Candida albicans. His Salivary Proteins study deals with Polymorphism intersecting with Molecular biology.
His scientific interests lie mostly in Biochemistry, Histatin, Saliva, Molecular biology and Microbiology. His study in Amino acid, Peptide sequence, Peptide, Enzyme and Proteolysis is carried out as part of his Biochemistry studies. In his study, Stereochemistry is strongly linked to Histidine, which falls under the umbrella field of Histatin.
His Saliva study combines topics in areas such as Tooth enamel, Immunology and In vivo. His research in Molecular biology intersects with topics in Recombinant DNA, Submandibular gland, Secretion, Messenger RNA and Mucin. His work in Microbiology addresses issues such as Proteases, which are connected to fields such as Zymography and Protease.
His main research concerns Saliva, Biochemistry, Microbiology, Immunology and Histatin. The concepts of his Saliva study are interwoven with issues in Biomarker, In vitro, Cytokine and Pathology. His Microbiology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Biofilm, Streptococcus mitis, Antigen and Gluten.
In the subject of general Immunology, his work in Asthma and Immune system is often linked to Profiling and Inflammatory mediator, thereby combining diverse domains of study. His research in Histatin is mostly focused on Histatin 3. His work in Histatin 3 tackles topics such as Protein structure which are related to areas like Genetics, Mucin and Amino acid.
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Saliva, Biochemistry, Microbiology, Histatin and Immunology. His Saliva study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Antibody, Monoclonal antibody, Cytokine and In vivo. In most of his Biochemistry studies, his work intersects topics such as Calcium-binding protein.
His Microbiology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Antigen, Collectin and Gliadin, Gluten. His research investigates the connection between Histatin and topics such as In vitro that intersect with problems in Tooth enamel, Dentistry, Enamel demineralization, Enamel Pellicle and Cell biology. His work carried out in the field of Immunology brings together such families of science as Periodontitis, Protein purification, Gingival sulcus and Gingivitis.
