Full Description


Understanding of the critical events in the development of bacterial infections. * Covers historical perspectives, general principles, methodologies, and specific host cell and bacterial components associated with the process, including post-adhesion consequences, regulation of adhesin expression, and anti-adhesion therapy. * Serves as an essential reference for students and investigators interested in host-pathogen interactions. This title is published by the American Society for Microbiology Press and distributed by Taylor and Francis in rest of world territories.
