This book covers the latest research in biofilm, infection, and
antimicrobial strategies in reducing and treating musculoskeletal,
skin, transfusion, implant-related infections, etc. Topics covered
include biofilms, small colony variants, antimicrobial biomaterials
(antibiotics, antimicrobial peptides, hydrogels, bioinspired
interfaces, immunotherapeutic approaches, and more), antimicrobial
coatings, engineering and 3D printing, antimicrobial delivery
vehicles, and perspectives on clinical impacts. Antibiotic
resistance, which shifts the race toward bacteria, and strategies
to reduce antibiotic resistance, are also briefly touched on.
Combined with its companion volume, Racing for the Surface:
Pathogenesis of Implant Infection and Advanced Antimicrobial
Strategies, this book bridges the gaps between infection and tissue
engineering, and is an ideal book for academic researchers,
clinicians, industrial engineers and scientists, governmental
representatives in national laboratories, and advanced
undergraduate students and post-doctoral fellows who are interested
in infection, microbiology, and biomaterials and devices.
