His primary areas of study are Candida albicans, Farnesol, Microbiology, Corpus albicans and Biochemistry. His work carried out in the field of Candida albicans brings together such families of science as Mutation, In vitro, Fungal protein and Yeast. His study looks at the relationship between Farnesol and topics such as Biofilm, which overlap with Farnesol metabolism.
His study focuses on the intersection of Microbiology and fields such as Dimorphic fungus with connections in the field of Aspergillus nidulans, Hypha and Cell biology. His Corpus albicans study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Quorum sensing, Extracellular, Growth medium and Farnesyl pyrophosphate. In general Biochemistry study, his work on Tyrosol, Fusel alcohol, Phenethyl alcohol and Aromatic amino acids often relates to the realm of Tryptophol, thereby connecting several areas of interest.
His primary scientific interests are in Biochemistry, Microbiology, Candida albicans, Bacillus thuringiensis and Farnesol. He has included themes like Germ tube and Sexual dimorphism in his Biochemistry study. His work in Microbiology addresses subjects such as Sodium dodecyl sulfate, which are connected to disciplines such as Lysis.
Kenneth W. Nickerson studies Candida albicans, namely Corpus albicans. The study incorporates disciplines such as Toxin, Protein crystallization, Chromatography, Bioassay and Aedes aegypti in addition to Bacillus thuringiensis. Kenneth W. Nickerson interconnects Biofilm, Biological activity, Stereochemistry and Farnesyl pyrophosphate in the investigation of issues within Farnesol.
The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Candida albicans, Biochemistry, Microbiology, Corpus albicans and Quorum sensing. His Candida albicans research integrates issues from Farnesol, Mutant, Fungal protein, Hyphal growth and Respiratory chain. Biochemistry is closely attributed to Germ tube in his study.
His study in the fields of Fungi imperfecti under the domain of Microbiology overlaps with other disciplines such as Chemokinesis. His studies deal with areas such as Lactoylglutathione lyase, Cytokine, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Farnesyl pyrophosphate and Lipid metabolism as well as Corpus albicans. His Quorum sensing research incorporates elements of Secretion, Phagocyte, Immune system and Dimorphic fungus.
Kenneth W. Nickerson mainly focuses on Candida albicans, Biochemistry, Corpus albicans, Farnesol and Microbiology. His Candida albicans research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Fungal protein and Yeast. Kenneth W. Nickerson combines subjects such as Probiotic and Food microbiology with his study of Yeast.
His studies in Corpus albicans integrate themes in fields like Lyase, Catalytic triad, Glutathione and Saccharomyces cerevisiae. His work deals with themes such as Zymosan, Macrophage, Cytokine and Tumor necrosis factor alpha, which intersect with Farnesol. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Biological activity and Cell growth.
