Medical Implications of Biofilms Book

Human tissues often support complex microbial communities growing as biofilms that can cause infections. As microbes in biofilms exhibit increased tolerance towards anti-microbial agents and decreased susceptibility to host defense systems, biofilm-associated diseases have become increasingly difficult to treat. Not surprisingly, interest in biofilms has increased dramatically in recent years. New microscopic and molecular techniques have revolutionized our understanding of biofilm structure, composition, organization and activities, resulting in advances in the prevention and treatment of biofilm-related diseases. This book brings these advances to the attention of clinicians and medical researchers.Read More
