Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Bacteria
  • Gene

Hyun Koo focuses on Microbiology, Biofilm, Streptococcus mutans, Dental plaque and Biochemistry. His Microbiology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Matrix, Actinomyces naeslundii, Streptococcus sobrinus and Virulence. Multicellular organism is closely connected to Microorganism in his research, which is encompassed under the umbrella topic of Virulence.

His Biofilm research integrates issues from Computational biology and In vivo. His work in Streptococcus mutans covers topics such as Glucosyltransferases which are related to areas like Glucan. His Dental plaque study incorporates themes from Corpus albicans and Candida albicans.

His most cited work include:

  • Biology of Streptococcus mutans-derived glucosyltransferases: role in extracellular matrix formation of cariogenic biofilms. (567 citations)
  • Targeting microbial biofilms: current and prospective therapeutic strategies. (469 citations)
  • Exopolysaccharides Produced by Streptococcus mutans Glucosyltransferases Modulate the Establishment of Microcolonies within Multispecies Biofilms (321 citations)

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

Hyun Koo mainly focuses on Biofilm, Streptococcus mutans, Microbiology, Biochemistry and Bacteria. The various areas that Hyun Koo examines in his Biofilm study include Nanoparticle, Polysaccharide, Matrix, Glucosyltransferases and In vivo. His research in Matrix tackles topics such as Extracellular matrix which are related to areas like Cell adhesion and Biophysics.

His Streptococcus mutans research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Dental plaque, Saliva, Antibacterial activity and Candida albicans. The Microbiology study combines topics in areas such as Extracellular, Propolis, Actinomyces naeslundii and Virulence. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Biological activity, Streptococcus sobrinus and Glucosyltransferase.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biofilm (69.05%)
  • Streptococcus mutans (61.90%)
  • Microbiology (58.33%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Biofilm (69.05%)
  • Microbiology (58.33%)
  • Streptococcus mutans (61.90%)

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

Hyun Koo mostly deals with Biofilm, Microbiology, Streptococcus mutans, Candida albicans and Virulence. His Biofilm study combines topics in areas such as Bacterial colonization, Iron oxide nanoparticles, Corpus albicans, Biophysics and Antimicrobial. His Microbiology research includes themes of Microbiome, Exoenzyme and Bacterial Physiological Phenomena.

His Streptococcus mutans research integrates issues from Virulence factor, Farnesol, Drug delivery, Drug resistance and Drug. The concepts of his Candida albicans study are interwoven with issues in Titanium, Sorbitol, Fungal growth and Sucrose. While the research belongs to areas of Virulence, he spends his time largely on the problem of Bacteria, intersecting his research to questions surrounding In vivo, Cytotoxicity, Intracellular and Glutathione.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Dextran-Coated Iron Oxide Nanoparticles as Biomimetic Catalysts for Localized and pH-Activated Biofilm Disruption (58 citations)
  • Biofilm Matrixome: Extracellular Components in Structured Microbial Communities (56 citations)
  • Catalytic antimicrobial robots for biofilm eradication. (34 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Bacteria
  • Gene

His primary areas of investigation include Biofilm, Streptococcus mutans, Iron oxide nanoparticles, Biophysics and Spatial structure. His Biofilm research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Nanotechnology, Farnesol, Microbiology, Matrix and Virulence. Candida albicans is the focus of his Microbiology research.

His work deals with themes such as Microbiome, Pathogen, Computational biology and Bacteria, which intersect with Virulence. Much of his study explores Streptococcus mutans relationship to Corpus albicans. His Iron oxide nanoparticles study incorporates themes from Dextran, Coating and Catalysis.
