内容説明・目次

内容説明

An up-to-date examination of phages, exploring their role in the biology and pathogenicity of specific pathogens as well as the application of phage biology to biotechnology. * Opens with the exciting history of phage research, beginning with Felix d'Herelle's 1917 description of a "microbe" that was antagonistic to bacteria, which he termed a bacteriophage. * Covers general information that will familiarize readers with phage biology and explores the role of phages in the biology and pathogenicity of specific infectious bacteria. * Details the application of phages in technology, including comprehensive material on recombineering in prokaryotes, polysaccharide-degrading phages, and the use of phage in therapy and detection of bacteria. This title is published by the American Society for Microbiology Press and distributed by Taylor and Francis in rest of world territories.
