Practical Handbook of Microbiology, 2nd Edition


Description

The field of microbiology has developed considerably in the last 20 years, building exponentially on its own discoveries and growing to encompass many other disciplines. Unfortunately, the literature in the field tends to be either encyclopedic in scope or presented as a textbook and oriented for the student. Finding its niche between these two poles, the second edition of the bestselling Practical Handbook of Microbiology provides in-depth chapters on all aspects of the field, from classical microbiology to genomics, in an easily accessible volume.

21st Century U.S. Army Correspondence Course References: Principles of Epidemiology and Microbiology - Army Medical Department Course Student Self-Study Guide

21st Century U.S. Army Correspondence Course References: Principles of Epidemiology and Microbiology - Army Medical Department Course Student Self-Study Guide (Ringbound)

Description

This ringbound book presents a reproduction of an important U.S. Army Correspondence Course reference, Introduction Health Care Ethics (Volume Two) - Army Medical Department Course Student Self-Study Guide. These medical courses were developed by the U.S. Army Medical Department Center and School at Fort Sam Houston, Texas. Contents include: Principles Of Epidemiology And Microbiology - Introduction - One of the important landmarks in man's struggle to conquer disease was the invention of the microscope, generally attributed to Anton van Leeuwenhoek of Holland. Leeuwenhoek described the appearance of protozoa to the Royal Society of London in 1673. Thus, the world became aware of microbial life. Subsequently, Louis Pasteur, Lord Lister, Robert Koch, and others established the role of microorganisms as the causative agents of many diseases and developed techniques for determining the etiology (cause) and preventive measures for many previously uncontrolled diseases. During the period 1893--1902, several important events occurred in military medicine that benefited not only the Army, but mankind in general. Under the direction of Army Surgeon General George Sternberg (also known as "The Father of American Bacteriology"), Walter Reed, William Gorgas, and other medical officers made dramatic progress in the etiology and control of typhoid fever, malaria, and yellow fever. This subcourse introduces the basic principles of disease transmission and epidemiology--principles which were used by Reed and Gorgas and which are in use today. It also introduces the student to the study of the microbiological agents, which are important from a military and public health viewpoint. Subcourse Components: This subcourse consists of three lessons. Lesson 1, Introduction to Disease Transmission and Epidemiology. Lesson 2, Public Health Microbiology. Lesson 3, Practical Application of Microbiology Our news and educational titles are privately compiled collections of official public domain U.S. government files and documents - they are not produced by the federal government. They are designed to provide a convenient user-friendly reference work and educational tool.

Medical Microbiology

Medical Microbiology
Publisher: Thieme Publishing Group | ISBN: 3131319917 | edition 2004 | PDF | 724 pages | 21,8 mb


Medical Microbiology comprises and integrates the fields of immunology, bacteriology, virology, mycology, and parasitology, each of which has seen considerable independent development in the past few decades. The common bond between them is the focus on the causes of infectious diseases and on the reactions of the host to the pathogens. Although the advent of antibiotics and vaccines has certainly taken the dread out of many infectious diseases, the threat of infection is still a fact of life: New pathogens are constantly being discovered; strains of „old“ ones have developed resistance to antibiotics, making therapy more and more difficult; incurable infectious diseases (AIDS, rabies) are still with us.

Handbook of Drugs for Tropical Parasitic Infections



Parasitic infections such as malaria, schistosomiasis, trypanosomiasis and onchoceriasis are the scourge of the tropical countries. Many of the drugs used for the treatment of tropical parasitic infections were introduced more than 30 years ago. Most of these drugs are toxic and have complicated dosage regimens, but, because of the low economic incentive, pharmaceutical companies have shown little interest in developing new drugs to control diseases prevalent in developing countries.; However, there has been notable progress in research into parasitic diseases and a number of important drugs have been introduced for some diseases since the 1970s. Moreover, recent data on the pharmacokinetics and field evaluations of these drugs have revealed that their effectiveness can be improved and their safety increased.; This handbook is designed to provide information about the pharmacological properties and therapeutic uses of the major drugs currently employed to combat the human parasitic infections encountered in the tropics. Each of the 38 drugs covered in the book are presented under the following headings: chemical structure, physical properties, pharmacology and mechanism of action, pharmacokinetics, clinical trials, pregnancy and lactation, side effects, contraindications and precautions, dosage, preparations, and references.

The diversity of their activities varies from causing diseases in human and other animals and plants to the production of various useful products.
Microbes have a very significant role in the era of biotechnology and hence microbiology has today come forth as one of the most demanding subject in the science stream of graduate and post graduate courses.
The contents of the present book have been divided into 17 chapters covering basic studies of microorganisms excluding their application part. Book covers detailed information on history of microbiology, evolution of microorganisms, classification, Nomenclature and latest information of Bergey’s manual. Chapter covers information about structure, metabolism reproduction, function and diseases caused by Bacteria, Viruses, Bacterial viruses, Plant viruses, Animal viruses, Archaea, Mycoplasma and Phytoplasma. General account of cyanobacteria including their nutrition and reproduction have been given. Book provides detailed information about Gram negative and Gram positive Bacteria and Eukaryotes viz. Algae and fungi.
At end of book appendix and various types of questions have been given for the benefit of students. A concise account of microorganisms is given in the text book, so as to make the students aware of the nature and other important aspects of the microorganisms.
