Stress Responses of Lactic Acid Bacteria
Springer 2011; US$ 189.99Beginning with the basics of lactic acid bacteria and stress response, then working into specific fields of research and current developments, "Stress Responses of Lactic Acid Bacteria" will serve as an essential guidebook to researchers in the field, industry professionals, and advanced students in the area. The exploration of stress responses... more...
Recent Advances on Model Hosts
Springer 2011; US$ 149.99Most studies of bacterial or fungal infectious diseases focus separately on the pathogenic microbe, the host response, or the characterization of therapeutic compounds. Compartmentalization of pathogenesis-related research into an analysis of the "pathogen", the "host," or the "antimicrobial compound" has largely been... more...
Current Topics in Innate Immunity II
Springer 2011; US$ 149.99Mounting evidence in the past decade indicates that innate immunity mediates functions above and beyond first-line defense against infection. It is now appreciated that innate immune mechanisms are critically involved in the development of adaptive immunity and, moreover, the regulation of diverse physiological and homeostatic processes. The latter... more...
The Forgotten Cure
Springer 2011; US$ 15.99This book fills a void. Never before has a comprehensive history of phage therapy-a once-neglected, now resurgent field-been written. Kuchment writes from the perspective of the eager student of history for the common reader. more...

Direct-Fed Microbials and Prebiotics for Animals
Springer 2011; US$ 149.99The practice of supplementing direct fed microbial and prebiotic additives to domestic animals during growth is becoming more widespread in food animal production. Beneficial effects particularly in cattle, pigs and poultry, including improved general health, foodborne pathogen reduction, more efficient food utilization, faster growth rate and increased... more...
Anoxia
Springer 2011; US$ 169.99Anoxia defines the lack of free molecular oxygen in an environment. In the presence of organic matter, anaerobic prokaryotes produce compounds such as free radicals, hydrogen sulfide, or methane that are typically toxic to aerobes. The concomitance of suppressed respiration and presence of toxic substances suggests these habitats are inhospitable to... more...
