Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Bacteria
  • Enzyme

Todd R. Klaenhammer focuses on Microbiology, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Bacteria, Genetics and Bacteriocin. The concepts of his Microbiology study are interwoven with issues in Plasmid, Lactobacillus and Lactococcus. His research in the fields of Genetic transfer overlaps with other disciplines such as Plasmid preparation.

Todd R. Klaenhammer has researched Lactobacillus acidophilus in several fields, including Cell culture, In vitro, Catabolite repression, Mutant and Molecular biology. His Bacteria research integrates issues from Protease and Gram-negative bacteria. His Bacteriocin research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Streptococcus, Peptide sequence, Biochemistry and Antibacterial agent.

His most cited work include:

  • Genetics of bacteriocins produced by lactic acid bacteria (1661 citations)
  • Bacteriocins of lactic acid bacteria (1339 citations)
  • Comparative genomics of the lactic acid bacteria (1079 citations)

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

Todd R. Klaenhammer mainly focuses on Microbiology, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Bacteria, Bacteriophage and Biochemistry. His Microbiology study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Probiotic, Lactobacillus gasseri, Lactobacillus, Plasmid and Immune system. His Lactobacillus research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Lactobacillus plantarum and Bacteriocin.

His research in Lactobacillus acidophilus intersects with topics in Cell, Gene expression, Mutant, S-layer and Mucin. His research integrates issues of Antimicrobial, Fermentation, Food science and Recombinant DNA in his study of Bacteria. He has included themes like Lytic cycle, Lactococcus lactis, DNA and Streptococcaceae in his Bacteriophage study.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Microbiology (46.70%)
  • Lactobacillus acidophilus (27.20%)
  • Bacteria (23.08%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2012-2021)?

  • Microbiology (46.70%)
  • Lactobacillus acidophilus (27.20%)
  • Biochemistry (21.98%)

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

His main research concerns Microbiology, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Biochemistry, Probiotic and Lactobacillus. Todd R. Klaenhammer interconnects Prebiotic, Fibronectin, Lactobacillus gasseri, Immune system and Bacteria in the investigation of issues within Microbiology. Todd R. Klaenhammer combines subjects such as Plasmid, Gene, Mutant and Ampicillin with his study of Lactobacillus gasseri.

His Bacteria study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Acquired immune system and Bacterial virus. His studies in Lactobacillus acidophilus integrate themes in fields like Proteome, In vitro, Intestinal mucosa, S-layer and Mucin. His Lactobacillus research includes elements of Bacteriocin, Genetically modified organism and Metabolism.

Between 2012 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Expanding the biotechnology potential of lactobacilli through comparative genomics of 213 strains and associated genera (265 citations)
  • Genomic and phenotypic evidence for probiotic influences of Lactobacillus gasseri on human health (101 citations)
  • Identification of probiotic effector molecules: present state and future perspectives (89 citations)

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

  • Gene
  • Bacteria
  • Enzyme

Todd R. Klaenhammer spends much of his time researching Probiotic, Microbiology, Lactobacillus, Lactobacillus acidophilus and Biochemistry. His studies deal with areas such as Biotechnology and Food products as well as Probiotic. His work on Antibiotic resistance as part of general Microbiology study is frequently linked to Melibiose, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of science.

His research investigates the link between Lactobacillus and topics such as Bacteriocin that cross with problems in Comparative genomics, Pediococcus, Phylogenetics and Genome editing. His Lactobacillus acidophilus research is included under the broader classification of Bacteria. The study incorporates disciplines such as Gastrointestinal tract and Antimicrobial in addition to Bacteria.
