Responses of Campylobacter spp. These bacteria are under oxygen and temperature stress during food storage and may be subjected to pH and chemical stresses during processing. We are studying the microbial physiology of Campylobacter spp. Separation of proteins on 2-dimensional gels and their identification by mass spectrometry is one tool used to study the proteins synthesised as a result of cold shock.
Study also involves use of gene reporter systems to follow stress responses.
