Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Bacteria
  • Gene
  • Enzyme

Yves Le Loir mainly investigates Microbiology, Mastitis, Lactococcus lactis, Context and Bacteria. His studies in Microbiology integrate themes in fields like Prevotella, Coagulase and Staphylococcus aureus. The Staphylococcus aureus study combines topics in areas such as Polymerase chain reaction and Enterotoxin.

The Udder research he does as part of his general Mastitis study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Quality, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science. His Lactococcus lactis study combines topics in areas such as Oxidase test, Biochemistry, Heterologous and Antigen. His Biotechnology research extends to the thematically linked field of Bacteria.

His most cited work include:

  • Staphylococcus aureus and food poisoning. (952 citations)
  • Respiration Capacity of the Fermenting Bacterium Lactococcus lactis and Its Positive Effects on Growth and Survival (185 citations)
  • Protein secretion in Lactococcus lactis : an efficient way to increase the overall heterologous protein production. (183 citations)

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

Yves Le Loir focuses on Microbiology, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacteria, Lactococcus lactis and Mastitis. Specifically, his work in Microbiology is concerned with the study of Pathogen. In general Staphylococcus aureus study, his work on Staphylococcal infections often relates to the realm of Context, thereby connecting several areas of interest.

His Bacteria study incorporates themes from Food science and Metabolism. Within one scientific family, Yves Le Loir focuses on topics pertaining to Streptococcaceae under Lactococcus lactis, and may sometimes address concerns connected to Antibiosis. Yves Le Loir focuses mostly in the field of Mastitis, narrowing it down to matters related to Immunology and, in some cases, Bacteriology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Microbiology (97.56%)

  • Propionibacterium freudenreichii (25.00%)

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

Yves Le Loir mainly focuses on Microbiology, Probiotic, Propionibacterium freudenreichii, Staphylococcus aureus and Food science. His study in Pathogen and Mastitis is done as part of Microbiology. Bacteria covers he research in Probiotic.

Many of his research projects under Bacteria are closely connected to Adenylate Cyclase Toxin with Adenylate Cyclase Toxin, tying the diverse disciplines of science together. His research integrates issues of Proteases, Immune system, Pathogenicity island and Phosphorylation, Cell biology in his study of Staphylococcus aureus. His study in the field of Lactobacillus casei also crosses realms of Spray dryer, Water content, Pilot scale and Materials science.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Spray drying of probiotics and other food-grade bacteria: A review (108 citations)
  • Double use of concentrated sweet whey for growth and spray drying of probiotics: Towards maximal viability in pilot scale spray dryer (30 citations)
  • Staphylococcus aureus Extracellular Vesicles Elicit an Immunostimulatory Response in vivo on the Murine Mammary Gland. (20 citations)

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

  • Bacteria
  • Gene
  • Enzyme

Yves Le Loir spends much of his time researching Probiotic, Bacteria, Microbiology, Food science and Context. The various areas that Yves Le Loir examines in his Probiotic study include Propionibacterium freudenreichii and Lactobacillus. His research investigates the connection with Bacteria and areas like Biochemistry which intersect with concerns in Mucus and Intestinal inflammation.

His work on Pathogen as part of general Microbiology study is frequently linked to Adenylate Cyclase Toxin, bridging the gap between disciplines. His work in the fields of Food science, such as Lactobacillus casei, intersects with other areas such as Spray dryer, Water content, Pilot scale and Materials science. The concepts of his In vivo study are interwoven with issues in Chemokine, Immune system, Lipoteichoic acid, Staphylococcus aureus and Mastitis.
