The Comprehensive Sourcebook of Bacterial Protein Toxins, Third Edition
Bacterial toxins play an important role in infectious diseases. Several are amongst the most potent biological agents known to man. Cholera, pertussis, botulinum, clostridium and tetanus toxins are all produced by bacteria. In many cases, it is the toxin produced and not the infectious agent itself that causes pathology. Botulinum toxin has now of course found clinical application as botox, and anthrax, and other toxins, have potentially devastating effects if misused as an agent of biological terror. This book describes the major achievements and discoveries relevant to bacterial protein toxins since the turn of the new century, illustrated by the discovery of more than fifty novel toxins (many of them identified through genome screening). format hardback language english publication year 01 08 2004 subject medicine subject 2 clinical medicine professional title the comprehensive sourcebook of bacterial protein toxins third edition author alouf joseph e editor popoff michel r editor publisher academic pr publication date jan 27 2006 pages 1047 binding hardcover edition 3 rd dimensions 9 00 wx 11 25 hx 1 75 d isbn 0120884453 subject science life sciences biology microbiology description bacterial toxins play an important role in Read medical textbooks online like The Comprehensive Sourcebook of Bacterial Protein Toxins here
