Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Bacteria

Microbiology, Biochemistry, Lipopolysaccharide, Haemophilus influenzae and Heptose are his primary areas of study. His Microbiology study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Virology, Epitope, Antigen, Polysaccharide and Bacteria. In his study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Epitope, Monoclonal antibody is strongly linked to Neisseria meningitidis.

His Biochemistry study which covers Stereochemistry that intersects with Residue and Methanococcales. His Lipopolysaccharide research includes elements of Oligosaccharide, Transferase and Strain. His research integrates issues of Sialic acid, Analyte, Electrospray, Mass spectrometry and Virulence in his study of Haemophilus influenzae.

His most cited work include:

  • Phosphorylcholine on the lipopolysaccharide of Haemophilus influenzae contributes to persistence in the respiratory tract and sensitivity to serum killing mediated by C-reactive protein. (281 citations)
  • Host-derived sialic acid is incorporated into Haemophilus influenzae lipopolysaccharide and is a major virulence factor in experimental otitis media. (175 citations)
  • USE OF THE COMPLETE GENOME SEQUENCE INFORMATION OF HAEMOPHILUS INFLUENZAE STRAIN RD TO INVESTIGATE LIPOPOLYSACCHARIDE BIOSYNTHESIS (154 citations)

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

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Microbiology, Lipopolysaccharide, Biochemistry, Haemophilus influenzae and Epitope. His Microbiology study incorporates themes from Neisseria meningitidis, Bacteria, Virology and Antigen. His Lipopolysaccharide research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Transferase, Enzyme and Strain.

In his research on the topic of Biochemistry, Polysaccharide and Organic chemistry is strongly related with Stereochemistry. As part of the same scientific family, James C. Richards usually focuses on Haemophilus influenzae, concentrating on Mass spectrometry and intersecting with Capillary electrophoresis. His Epitope research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Phosphorylcholine, Glycoconjugate and Monoclonal antibody.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Microbiology (49.09%)
  • Lipopolysaccharide (42.42%)
  • Biochemistry (40.00%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2007-2015)?

  • Biochemistry (40.00%)
  • Microbiology (49.09%)
  • Lipopolysaccharide (42.42%)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Biochemistry, Microbiology, Lipopolysaccharide, Lipid A and Epitope. In the field of Biochemistry, his study on Mutant, Heptose, Oligosaccharide and Amino acid overlaps with subjects such as Phosphocholine. His Mutant research integrates issues from Glycosyltransferase, Allele, Haemophilus influenzae and Haemophilus.

He interconnects Moraxella catarrhalis, Galactosyltransferase and Locus in the investigation of issues within Microbiology. His research in Lipid A intersects with topics in Virulence factor, Serotype, Burkholderia and Polyclonal antibodies. His work investigates the relationship between Epitope and topics such as Neisseria meningitidis that intersect with problems in Neisseriaceae and Escherichia coli.

Between 2007 and 2015, his most popular works were:

  • Carrier molecules for use in veterinary vaccines (26 citations)
  • Naturally-occurring human serum antibodies to inner core lipopolysaccharide epitopes of Neisseria meningitidis protect against invasive meningococcal disease caused by isolates displaying homologous inner core structures. (23 citations)
  • Identification of a Novel Lipopolysaccharide Core Biosynthesis Gene Cluster in Bordetella pertussis, and Influence of Core Structure and Lipid A Glucosamine Substitution on Endotoxic Activity (20 citations)

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

  • Enzyme
  • Gene
  • Bacteria

James C. Richards spends much of his time researching Epitope, Antigen, Lipid A, Antibody and Biochemistry. His Epitope study combines topics in areas such as Neisseria meningitidis and Microbiology. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Sepharose, Affinity chromatography, Neisseriaceae, Moraxella catarrhalis and Heptose.

His Antigen research incorporates elements of Veterinary medicine, Immune system, Biotechnology and Recombinant DNA. Lipopolysaccharide covers James C. Richards research in Lipid A. His primary area of study in Biochemistry is in the field of Glycosyltransferase.
