Vakevainen M, Jansen W, Saeland E, Jonsdottir I, Snippe H, Verheul A, et al.
Clin Diagn Lab Immunol . 2001 Mar; 8(2):363-9. PMID: 11238223
Host protection against Streptococcus pneumoniae is mainly mediated by opsonin-dependent phagocytosis. Several techniques for measuring opsonophagocytic activity (OPA) of antibodies to S. pneumoniae have been standardized and used. These include...

Ayad E, Verheul A, Engels W, Wouters J, Smit G
J Appl Microbiol . 2001 Jan; 90(1):59-67. PMID: 11155123
Combinations of lactococcal strains from various origins with divers properties were developed as new starters for new dairy products. Flavour formation by such tailor-made cultures was studied. In some cases,...

Verheul A, Wouters J, Rombouts F, Abee T
J Appl Microbiol . 1999 Jan; 85(6):1036-46. PMID: 9871325
Exogenously provided carnitine (beta-hydroxy-L-tau-N-trimethyl aminobutyrate) was found to stimulate aerobic growth of enterohaemorrhagic Escherichia coli O157:H7 in a medium of inhibitory osmotic strength. Its osmoprotective ability is comparable with that...

Verheul A, Rombouts F, Abee T
Appl Environ Microbiol . 1998 Mar; 64(3):1059-65. PMID: 9501445
For effective utilization of peptides, Listeria monocytogenes possesses two different peptide transport systems. The first one is the previously described proton motive force (PMF)-driven di- and tripeptide transport system (A....

Chaka W, Heyderman R, Gangaidzo I, Robertson V, Mason P, Verhoef J, et al.
J Infect Dis . 1997 Dec; 176(6):1633-6. PMID: 9395381
Cytokine levels were studied in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of 16 adults with cryptococcal meningitis (CM). Low levels of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha and interferon-gamma, high levels of interleukin (IL)-1beta,...

Verheul A, Glaasker E, Poolman B, Abee T
J Bacteriol . 1997 Nov; 179(22):6979-85. PMID: 9371443
The naturally occurring compatible solutes betaine and L-carnitine allow the food-borne pathogen Listeria monocytogenes to adjust to environments of high osmotic strength. Previously, it was demonstrated that L. monocytogenes possesses...

Bennik M, Verheul A, Abee T, Gorris L, Smid E
Appl Environ Microbiol . 1997 Sep; 63(9):3628-36. PMID: 9293015
The natural variation in the susceptibilities of gram-positive bacteria towards the bacteriocins nisin and pediocin PA-1 is considerable. This study addresses the factors associated with this variability for closely related...

Verheul A, Russell N, vant Hof R, Rombouts F, Abee T
Appl Environ Microbiol . 1997 Sep; 63(9):3451-7. PMID: 9292996
A nisin-resistant (NISr) variant of Listeria monocytogenes Scott A was isolated by stepwise exposure to increasing concentrations of nisin in brain heart infusion (BHI) broth. The NISr strain was about...

Johansen C, Verheul A, Gram L, Gill T, Abee T
Appl Environ Microbiol . 1997 Mar; 63(3):1155-9. PMID: 9055431
The inhibitory effect of the cationic peptide protamine on Listeria monocytogenes, Escherichia coli, and Shewanella putrefaciens has been studied in detail. The addition of protamine (10 to 1,000 micrograms/ml) resulted...
