Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Immune system
  • Gene
  • Internal medicine

Per Brandtzaeg mainly focuses on Immunology, Immune system, Antibody, Secretory component and Antigen. His research links Microbiology with Immunology. His Immune system research includes themes of Germinal center and Effector.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Breast milk and Salivary secretion. His studies in Secretory component integrate themes in fields like Cytoplasm, Cell biology, Secretion, J chain and Receptor. His Antigen research integrates issues from Lamina propria, Disease and Plasma cell differentiation.

His most cited work include:

  • The complex pattern of cytokines in serum from patients with meningococcal septic shock. Association between interleukin 6, interleukin 1, and fatal outcome. (1030 citations)
  • The immune geography of IgA induction and function (677 citations)
  • Plasmacytoid Dendritic Cells (Natural Interferon- α/β-Producing Cells) Accumulate in Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus Lesions (636 citations)

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

Per Brandtzaeg mostly deals with Immunology, Antibody, Pathology, Molecular biology and Immune system. The study of Immunology is intertwined with the study of Intestinal mucosa in a number of ways. His study involves Secretory component and Immunoglobulin E, a branch of Antibody.

His studies deal with areas such as Receptor, Biochemistry, Polymeric immunoglobulin receptor, J chain and Cell biology as well as Secretory component. His work on Immune system is being expanded to include thematically relevant topics such as Microbiology. His Lamina propria study incorporates themes from CD8 and Intraepithelial lymphocyte.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Immunology (47.70%)
  • Antibody (27.94%)
  • Pathology (22.36%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2021)?

  • Environmental risk assessment (11.78%)
  • Biotechnology (11.58%)
  • Genetically modified organism (7.78%)

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

His primary areas of investigation include Environmental risk assessment, Biotechnology, Genetically modified organism, Genetically modified maize and Food safety. His Environmental risk assessment research spans across into areas like Genetically modified soybean, Glyphosate and Environmental health. Per Brandtzaeg undertakes interdisciplinary study in the fields of Biotechnology and Directive through his works.

His Genetically modified organism research incorporates themes from Carnation and Glufosinate. His Carnation study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Cut flowers, Ornamental plant and Petal. In his works, he undertakes multidisciplinary study on Food safety and Norwegian.

Between 2011 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The impact of perinatal immune development on mucosal homeostasis and chronic inflammation (344 citations)
  • Secretory IgA: Designed for Anti-Microbial Defense. (177 citations)
  • Secretory immunity with special reference to the oral cavity (126 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Immune system
  • Internal medicine

Per Brandtzaeg mainly focuses on Immunology, Food safety, Biotechnology, Genetically modified organism and Environmental risk assessment. His studies link Homeostasis with Immunology. His Antibody study combines topics in areas such as Medical microbiology, Internal medicine and Antigen.

His study in Immune system is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Inflammation and Saliva. His work carried out in the field of Lymphatic system brings together such families of science as Receptor, Germinal center and Secretory component. As a part of the same scientific study, he usually deals with the Secretory component, concentrating on J chain and frequently concerns with Somatic hypermutation, Immunoglobulin D, Ligand, Molecular biology and Western blot.
