Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Bacteria
  • Enzyme
  • Gene

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Microbiology, Bacteriocin, Antimicrobial, Listeria monocytogenes and Bacteria. His studies deal with areas such as Bacillus amyloliquefaciens, Bacillus subtilis, Lactobacillus and Bacillus as well as Microbiology. His Bacteriocin study combines topics in areas such as Bacillaceae, Pediococcus acidilactici, Biochemistry, Escherichia coli and Antimicrobial peptides.

His study in Antimicrobial is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Bacillales, Bacterial vaginosis, Gardnerella vaginalis, Antibiotics and Vagina. Michael L. Chikindas interconnects Nisin and Food microbiology in the investigation of issues within Listeria monocytogenes. His Bacteria research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Natural product, Efflux and Food additive.

His most cited work include:

  • Bacteriocins: Safe, natural antimicrobials for food preservation (1396 citations)
  • Listeria: A foodborne pathogen that knows how to survive (773 citations)
  • Isolation, purification and partial characterization of plantaricin 423, a bacteriocin produced by Lactobacillus plantarum (265 citations)

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

Michael L. Chikindas mainly investigates Microbiology, Antimicrobial, Bacteriocin, Probiotic and Food science. His Microbiology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Listeria monocytogenes, Biofilm and Bacteria. His work deals with themes such as In vitro, Peptide and Escherichia coli, which intersect with Antimicrobial.

His Bacteriocin research includes themes of Nisin, Mode of action, Biochemistry, Efflux and Antimicrobial peptides. Michael L. Chikindas combines subjects such as In vivo, Bacillus subtilis and Lactobacillus with his study of Probiotic. His work in Food science addresses subjects such as Bacilli, which are connected to disciplines such as Bacillus.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Microbiology (54.55%)
  • Antimicrobial (39.61%)
  • Bacteriocin (35.71%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Probiotic (37.01%)
  • Food science (31.17%)
  • Bacillus subtilis (23.38%)

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

Probiotic, Food science, Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus amyloliquefaciens and Bacilli are his primary areas of study. His Probiotic research incorporates elements of Microorganism, Lactobacillus, In vivo and Microbiology. His research on Microbiology frequently links to adjacent areas such as Resistance.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Escherichia coli and Biofilm. His work is dedicated to discovering how Escherichia coli, Salmonella are connected with Bacteriocin and other disciplines. Michael L. Chikindas focuses mostly in the field of Biofilm, narrowing it down to matters related to Antimicrobial and, in some cases, Gardnerella vaginalis, Shelf life, Bacteria and Lactobacillus rhamnosus.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Functions and emerging applications of bacteriocins. (164 citations)
  • Bacillus Probiotic Supplementations Improve Laying Performance, Egg Quality, Hatching of Laying Hens, and Sperm Quality of Roosters (25 citations)
  • Bacillus Probiotic Supplementations Improve Laying Performance, Egg Quality, Hatching of Laying Hens, and Sperm Quality of Roosters (25 citations)

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

  • Bacteria
  • Enzyme
  • Gene

Michael L. Chikindas focuses on Bacillus subtilis, Probiotic, Bacilli, Bacillus amyloliquefaciens and Food science. Probiotic is a subfield of Bacteria that he tackles. Michael L. Chikindas works mostly in the field of Bacilli, limiting it down to concerns involving Antimicrobial and, occasionally, Gardnerella vaginalis, Antibiotic sensitivity and Proteus mirabilis.

In his study, Productivity and Hatching is strongly linked to Bacillus, which falls under the umbrella field of Food science. His research in Lactobacillus focuses on subjects like Lactobacillus acidophilus, which are connected to Microbiology. In general Microbiology, his work in Pathogen is often linked to Benzoyl peroxide linking many areas of study.
