    • Inglés
    Structural and Functional Dynamics of Nontuberculous Mycobacterium Proteins: Insights into Pathogenic Mechanisms explores the structural and functional dynamics of nontuberculous mycobacterium (NTM) proteins, focusing on their roles in pathogenicity, the mechanisms underlying microbial infections, and the potential for developing targeted therapeutic strategies to combat these emerging pathogens. The book begins with a foundational overview of nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM), distinguishing them from Mycobacterium tuberculosis, their epidemiology, clinical significance, and structural biology. It discusses key structural features of NTM proteins and advanced techniques for protein structure determination, proteomic analyses, and bioinformatics approaches.Additiona... sections investigate the pathogenic mechanisms and the complexities of the host-pathogen interaction. Concluding with insights into emerging research, interdisciplinary collaboration, future treatment, and prevention strategies, this book is a helpful resource for researchers and healthcare professionals engaged in the study of infectious diseases.

    Antimicrobial Resistance, Sepsis, and the Invisible Threats to Women’s Health focuses on the burden of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and sepsis on women's health, providing the latest information to educate both global researchers and healthcare professionals. The book begins by introducing the fundamental concepts of antimicrobial resistance and sepsis, setting the stage for a deeper exploration of their impact on women's health. It examines the epidemiology of sepsis and antimicrobial resistance in women, highlighting key risk factors, research gaps, reproductive health, antimicrobial resistance, and sepsis in detail, and further emphasizing their disproportionate impact on women's health.Additional coverage includes strategies for recruiting women in clinical trials and research studies, exploring the One Health approach integrating women's health into the broader context of AMR and sepsis and the role of artificial intelligence and technology in combating AMR and sepsis. The book concludes with case studies of female patients and their families affected by AMR and sepsis.

    Environmental Microbiology, Fourth Edition is the revised edition of a key, foundational text for the field of environmental microbiology which hits all the pillars of the field and takes into account the tremendous advances in environmental microbiology over past decade. It provides comprehensive information on traditional methodologies utilized to study environmental microbes, as well as state-of-the-art technologies. Emphasis is placed on molecular and bio-informatic approaches to the study of environmental microbes, including nucleic acid and ‘omic methodologies. The book is divided into seven parts that stretch across microbiology concepts, microbial environments, microbial methods and technologies, microbial transport, biogeochemistry, and bioremediation, water and foodborne pathogens, wastewater treatment and distribution, and urban microbiology. 1) “Environmental Microbiology” is the study of microbes within all habitats, and their beneficial and detrimental impacts on human health and welfare. This book illustrates the significance of environmental microbes in our daily lives in terms of not only the overall health of the planet, but also: what infects us; what heals us; what we drink; what we eat; and what we breathe.
