The respiratory tract is a frequent target of infections caused by
a wide range of organisms. The book provides reader-friendly
information on aspects of pulmonary infections, including
comprehensive accounts of bacterial and viral diseases, therapeutic
approaches, molecular and classical culture-related techniques of
diagnosis and explaining the basic cell biological mechanism. The
role of oxidative stress, both helpful in fighting invading
pathogens and detrimental in yielding to infection is detailed as
it is often undervalued and needs focus. The chapters encompass
latest developments and applications in bacteriology and virology,
preventive and therapeutic tips, and raise attention to
implementation of proper antibiotic policies by medical
institutions to decrease resistance to antimicrobials. The
perennial problem of low influenza vaccination coverage rate is
rationalized. The volume will be of interest to both clinicians and
biomedical researchers engaged in this exciting field.
