Synopsis

Through the use of molecular and cellular biological techniques, numerous advances have been made in understanding the molecular basis of virulence mechanisms and toxin biosynthesis in organisms that contaminate food and feed. Microbial Foodborne Diseases: Mechanisms of Pathogenesis and Toxin Synthesis serves as an advanced text on these techniques, providing useful, up-to-date information by recognized authorities on the molecular mechanisms of pathogenesis and toxin production of some of the most important foodborne pathogens.

This book focuses on the molecular and cellular processes that govern pathogenicity and toxin production in foodborne and waterborne pathogens - viral, bacterial, fungal, and protozoan. It also includes current information related to the association of each pathogen with particular foods and water, epidemiology, methods of early detection, toxicology, and economic impact of the pathogen. It not only serves as an excellent reference, it is also a valuable tool in the rational design of preventative controls and therapeutic approaches to the disease process.

Providing useful, up-to-date information by recognized authorities Microbial Foodborne Diseases focuses on the molecular and cellular processes that govern pathogenicity and toxin production in foodborne pathogens - viral, bacterial, fungal, and protozoan. It includes current information related to the association of the pathogen with particular foods (and water), epidemiology, methods of early detection, toxicology, and economic impact of the pathogen. The book discusses important new areas of research, with implications toward the development of strategies for the control of the disease process.
