Table of contents:
The Ecology of Antibiotic Resistance Genes
Abigail A. Salyers, Nadja B. Shoemaker, and George T. Bonheyo
Antibiotic Resistance: How Bacterial Populations Respond to a Simple Evolutionary Force
Fernando de la Cruz, Juan M. Garca-Lobo, and Julian Davies
Global Response Systems That Cause Resistance
Paul F. Miller and Philip Rather
Drug Efflux
Kim Lewis and Olga Lomovskaya
Mechanisms of Aminoglycoside Antibiotic Resistance
Gerard D. Wright
b-Lactamases and of
Focuses on combating bacterial pathogens by understanding their strategies of defense!
Each chapter begins with a summary of concepts, so those not actively working in the field gain an overall picture of what follows!
Highlights antibiotic resistance in pathogens that poses the greatest threat to human health!
Containing nearly 2000 references for additional research, Bacterial Resistance to Antimicrobials
discusses the ecology of drug resistance genes, acquired response, and selection in natural bacterial populations
describes global response systems that are a basis of resistance
details antibiotic modification, inactivation, and host target modification as means of resistance development
considers efflux mechanisms, one of the major causes of multidrug resistance
covers concepts for developing therapies against multidrug resistant organisms
emphasizes the structural basis of lactamases and other enzymes involved in inactivation of antibiotics
surveys the epidemiology of methicillin resistance among nosocomial isolates and community-acquired strains
outlines molecular detection methods for mainstream diagnostic tests
assesses the promise of modern genomics to identify novel targets for drug discovery screening
Presenting the molecular basis, methods of detection and identification, and concepts for reducing the development and spread of resistant bacterial strains, Bacterial Resistance to Antimicrobials is an excellent reference for microbiologists, pharmacists, public health officials, infectious disease specialists, organic and medicinal chemists, and upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in these disciplines.
