English | ISBN: 1616682981 | 2010 | 142 pages | PDF | 3 MB
Timely pathogen detection is an important issue for the efficient prevention of outbreaks in the populations world-wide. The development of the sensor biotechnology in the last decades has set the basis for improved, faster and simplified detection of multiple analytes in complex matrices and a number of electrochemical, piezoelectric, and optical biosensors that have been applied with different success to the detection of either whole bacteria or bacterial components. The main advantages of this new technologic approach rely on the rapid response, cost-effectiveness, easiness of manipulation and the possibility of performing on-site and real-time analysis of the samples provided by biosensors. This book reviews the biosensor technology with a focus on its potential application to pathogen detection in the human food chain.

English | 2004 | pages: 133 | ISBN: 9241562552 | PDF | 1,0 mb
Contamination of drinking water by microbial pathogens can cause disease outbreaks and contribute to background rates of disease. There are many treatment options for controlling pathogens from drinking water. Finding the right solution for a particular supply involves choosing from a range of processes.

Free Download Sharon K. Collinge, Chris Ray, "Disease Ecology: Community Structure and Pathogen Dynamics"
English | 2006 | pages: 241 | ISBN: 0198567081 | PDF | 1,9 mb
Disease Ecology highlights exciting advances in theoretical and empirical research towards understanding the importance of community structure in the emergence of infectious diseases. The chapters in this book illustrate aspects of community ecology that influence pathogen transmission rates and disease dynamics in a wide variety of study systems. The innovative studies presented here communicate a clear message: studies of epidemiology can be approached from the perspective of community ecology, and students of community ecology can contribute significantly to epidemiology.

Free Download Host-Pathogen Interactions (2nd Edition)
English | 2024 | ISBN: 1071636162 | 497 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 34 MB
This fully updated volume serves as multidisciplinary compendium of approaches and techniques employed to analyze the role of different molecules, processes, or strategies used by different guests to survive and proliferate in their associations with eukaryotic hosts. Beginning with animal-pathogen interactions, the book then continues with chapters exploring virus-host interactions, plant-microbe interactions, as well as different molecular techniques that were initially applied to non-pathogenic interactions but can be adapted to study other host-pathogen associations. Written for the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology series, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step and readily reproducible laboratory protocols, as well as tips for troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls.

This book covers all aspects of naturally occurring phenomenon of Plant-Pathogen Interaction (PPI). Recent findings and scientific explanations to understand PPI are provided accompanied by numerous helpful photographs and pictorial presentations. In addition, tabulated data is also included to aid in getting insight into the subject and identifying the missing links. Essential information is provided on physiological, biochemical and pathology consequences of PPI and distinguished sections are devoted to explain molecular and regulatory mechanism underlying PPI. Further topics include different classes of plant pathogen, receptor molecules, signaling system, secondary metabolism and plant defense system etc. This book helps the readers in understanding the state of art and emerging technics to explore PPI and in identifying the missing links which further help in creating the background for future exploration of PPI in terms of experimental and technical advancements.
