Maggiori informazioni sul libro

This book deals with different aspects of bacterial resistance to antimicrobial drugs, covering basic mechanisms of gene mobilisation within and between bacteria, consequences of antibiotic use and abuse, and new therapeutic approaches to infectious diseases. This is an overview that brings together new information in an accessible way. Clinical researchers will better understand the basic principles of gene transfer and specific resistance mechanisms, and basic researchers will learn about the medical impact of antibiotic resistance, and the need for further research in this area.
