Genome Plasticity and Infectious Diseases
Comprehensive examination of the current understanding of pathogen adaptation and microevolution. • Introduces the rapidly evolving field of genome plasticity, presents the latest research findings, and explores the relevance of these findings to infection and infection control. • Compiles and analyzes current investigations on the genome fluidity of pathogenic microbes. • Explores bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites from the aspect of host genome plasticity and its impact on infection.
PCR Detection of Microbial Pathogens
Hands-on laboratory experts present a set of "classic" PCR-based methods for the identification and detection of important animal and food microbial pathogens, including several zoonotic agents. These proven techniques can be precisely applied to a wide variety of microbes, among them Campylobacter spp., chlamydiae, toxigenic clostridia, Escherichia coli (STEC), Listeria monocytogenes, mycoplasmas, salmonellae, and Yersinia enterocolitica. Additional chapters review the specificity and performance of diagnostic PCR analysis, the pre-PCR processing of samples, the critical aspects of standardizing PCR methods, and the general issues involved in using PCR technology for microbial diagnosis.
Understanding Pathogen Behaviour Virulence, Stress Response and Resistance
Pathogens respond dynamically to their environment. Understanding their behavior is critical for two important reasons: because of emerging evidence of increased pathogen resistance to established sanitation and preservation techniques and because of the increased use of minimal processing technologies, which are potentially more vulnerable to the development of resistance. Understanding Pathogen Behavior: Virulence, Stress Response And Resistance collects and summarizes the wealth of recent research in this area and its implications for microbiologists and QA staff in the food industry.

Emerging Bacterial Pathogens
One of the greatest public health achievements during the last century was the reduction of infectious diseases due to public sanitation measures, vaccines and antibiotics. However, in recent years, several new infectious diseases have been identified, and since the appearance of the first penicillin-resistant bacteria, 'old diseases' have reemerged. Volume 8 of Contributions to Microbiology provides an overview of a great variety of bacterial pathogens representative of those groups and discusses the underlying reasons for disease emergence. The various chapters clearly illustrate how changes in society, technology and the environment result in the appearance or spread of bacterial pathogen...
Karch's Pathology of Drug Abuse
Written in the same accessible manner as previous editions, the fifth edition of Karch‘s Pathology of Drug Abuse is an essential guide to the pathology, toxicology, and pharmacology of commonly abused drugs. The book focuses on the investigation of drug-related deaths, practical approaches to the detection of drug abuse, and discussions of medical
Karch's Drug Abuse Handbook
Karch’s Drug Abuse Handbook, Third Edition remains the quintessential compendium addressing the pharmacological, medical, and legal aspects of drugs and informing the forensic community of the latest scientific advances and emergent practices. For this edition, Dr. Karch has brought on clinical and forensic toxicology expert Dr. Bruce Goldberger, editor-in-chief of the Journal of Analytical Toxicology and president of the American Board of Forensic Toxicology, to serve as co-editor. In addition, world-renowned scientists and medical professionals have contributed their work and expertise in tackling the latest developments in drug testing, drug-related medical emergencies, and the drug tox...
Pediatric Kidney Disease
The extensively revised third edition of this text offers an in-depth practical guide to clinical conditions encountered in pediatric nephrology. Extensively updated disease-specific chapters offer detailed coverage of relevant basic science, diagnostic work-up, laboratory evaluation methods, appropriate management options and potential complications. Topics covered include disorders of renal development, glomerular disorders, the kidney and systemic disease, renal tubular disorders, tubulointerstitial disease, urinary tract disorders, acute kidney injury, chronic kidney disease, dialysis, kidney transplantation and hypertension.
