Pathogenomics
The first book on this young, highly dynamic, and expanding field. This comprehensive, interdisciplinary text focuses on those pathogenic bacteria that are of high scientific and public health interest, yet which also display great potential for the development of new diagnostic, prophylactic and therapeutic procedures. The authors cover all aspects of pathogenomics, including methods, genomics and applications. In addition, the ongoing development of genome, transcriptome, proteome and bioinformatic analyses of pathogenic microorganisms and their host interactions makes for a comprehensive introduction to the field of modern genomic analysis. This result is invaluable to researchers and students wishing to gain a general overview of microbial functional genome analysis and pathogenesis, while also representing a good starting point for those new to the area.
Genes and Proteins Underlying Microbial Urinary Tract Virulence
Proceedings of the FEMS Symposium on Genes and Proteins Underlying Microbial Urinary Tract Virulence: Basic Aspects and Applications, held September 16-19, 1999, in Pécs, Hungary. Urinary tract infections are among the most frequent diseases caused by microbial pathogens. In this volume, researchers, clinical microbiologists and clinicians exchange the latest ideas covering four major aspects of this important topic: Genetic information, synthesis and assembly of virulence factors in urinary pathogens; Regulation of genes involved in the phenotypic appearance of virulence; Host-parasite interactions determining the process and outcome of the infection; Possible applications of the above aspects in diagnosis, therapy and prevention.
Recent Advancements in the Diagnosis of Human Disease
Viruses, bacteria, fungi and parasites are known to cause the most common human disease. It frequently spreads through direct contact (from human to human, animal to human), and through contaminated food or water. With the advancement of diagnostic techniques, it is now possible to rapidly identify microorganisms causing human disease and correlate with the corresponding clinical infection. Therefore, there is a need to develop robust and high-throughput diagnostic methods to prevent and control human disease of public health importance. This book entitled “Recent Advancements in the Diagnosis of Human Disease” will help the scientific community to better understand the transmission dynamics of some human diseases.
Toxoplasma gondii
For years, toxoplasmosis has been known as disease mostly affecting newborns. Since immunocompromised patients (AIDS) present a high risk of reactivation of chronic toxoplasmosis this parasitic disease has gained increasing interest. Besides presenting clinical and therapeutical concepts, this volume provides current knowledge about genetics and immunology of T. gondii and the interaction with its 'host'. Since in vivo and in vitro models of toxoplasmosis exist, and genetic manipulation has become possible, this protozoan parasite has recently been accepted as a model for understanding the pathogenesis and persistance of other intracellular parasites. The articles of the book compromise both reviewing current concepts and reporting on yet unpublished results of leading scientists in this field.
Historical Scientific Instruments in Contemporary Education
These essays draw on recent and versatile work by museum staff, science educators, and teachers, showing what can be done with historical scientific instruments or replicas. Varied audiences - with members just like you - can be made aware of exciting aspects of history, observation, problem-solving, restoration, and scientific understanding, by the projects outlined here by professional practitioners. These interdisciplinary case studies, ranging from the cinematic to the hands-on, show how inspiration concerning science and the past can give intellectual pleasure as well as authentic learning to new participants, who might include people like you: students, teachers, curators, and the interested and engaged public. Contributors are Dominique Bernard, Paolo Brenni, Roland Carchon, Elizabeth Cavicchi, Stéphane Fischer, Peter Heering, J.W. Huisman, Françoise Khantine-Langlois, Alistair M. Kwan, Janet Laidla, Pierre Lauginie, Panagiotis Lazos, Pietro Milici, Flora Paparou, Frédérique Plantevin, Julie Priser, Alfonso San-Miguel, Danny Segers, Constantine (Kostas) Skordoulis, Trienke M. van der Spek, Constantina Stefanidou, and Giorgio Strano.
Mikrobiologische Diagnostik
Unverzichtbar für das klinisch-mikrobiologische Labor! Die von Friedrich Burkhardt begründete "Mikrobiologische Diagnostik" ist seit Erscheinen im Jahr 1992 ein unverzichtbarer Ratgeber für alle mikrobiologisch tätigen Ärzte und MTA und gehört zur Grundausstattung eines jeden mikrobiologischen Labors im deutschen Sprachraum. Das Buch bietet eine vollständige und aktuelle Zusammenfassung der gesamten bakteriologischen, virologischen, mykologischen und parasitologischen Diagnostik mit hohem Praxisbezug. Neben den mikrobiologischen Grundlagen und der Darstellung der allgemeinen mikrobiologischen Arbeitsmethoden geht es ausführlich und nachvollziehbar auf alle Aspekte des klinisch-mikrobiologischen Diagnostikprozesses mit Präanalytik, Untersuchungsverfahren und Befundinterpretation ein. Neu in der 2. Auflage: Aufgrund des enormen Zuwachses an Quantität und Qualität klinisch-mikrobiologischer Verfahren in den letzten Jahrzehnten und der Erweiterung und Diversifizierung des zur Verfügung stehenden Methodenspektrums wurde die vorliegende Neuauflage komplett neu gegliedert und vollständig überarbeitet.
