The concept of this book arose out of an international workshop,
which we organized and held at the University of Wales Conference
Centre at Gregynog. The workshop was the first occasion on which
researchers from all the different disciplines concerned with the
extracellular virulence factors of mucoid strains of Pseudomonas
aeruginosa in relation to cystic fibrosis (CF) had met to discuss
this multifaceted problem. It was deemed a particularly timely
moment to gather together experts for the exchange of facts, ideas
and hypotheses. No formal abstracts were presented and no
proceedings were published. But during the succeed ing months the
organizers were persuaded by a number of participants that a wider
audience should benefit from what had proved to be such a fruitful
cross-fertilization of expertise. Thus we moved from being workshop
organizers to book editors, sure in the knowledge that at least we
had a willing and enthusiastic set of contributors It should be
stressed, however, that this book is not a transcript of that
workshop. Not all those participants are authors, and some new
names have been added. Instead we have focused on alginate as an
extracellular virulence factor of P. aeruginosa in CF pulmonary
infections. Recent advances in the biochemistry and molecular
genetics of alginate bio synthesis, as well as in our understanding
of the basic defect in CF and isolation of the gene, mean that the
book is even more timely than when first planned."
