From the slippery covering on rocks in a stream, to the clogging
slime in a bathtub drain, biofilms are present in everyday life in
a variety of forms. This seemingly harmless build-up also accounts
for 80 percent of all microbial infections. With chapters authored
by experienced contributors from academia and industry, Applied
Biomedical Microbiology: A Biofilms Approach demonstrates effective
ways to combat the health and economic havoc that biofilms are
wreaking, while also tapping into their positive potential. Replete
with Tables and Illustrations, Many in Color Under the editorial
guidance of esteemed industrial microbiologist Dr. Daryl Paulson,
this book presents an in-depth discussion of medically challenging
biofilms. It provides a solid foundation in the basic microbiology
of biofilms and then goes on to discuss the biofilms associated
with medical devices, catheters, and dental unit water lines as
well as those that impact cardiovascular medicine, the
gastrointestinal system, periodontal disease, and chronic wounds.
This informative work concludes with an exploratory chapter of the
various methods used to investigate biofilms. Applied Biomedical
Microbiology: A Biofilms Approach presents key information clearly
and concisely - a useful guide for environmental, food, and water
microbiologists as well as biochemists, pharmaceutical scientists,
and product and biofilm engineers.
