Biofilms: Recent Advances in their Study and Control
Editat de L V Evansen Limba Engleză Hardback – 21 dec 2000
This volume, with contributions by international experts from widely diverse areas of this field, presents a state-of-the-art picture of where we are at present in terms of our knowledge of biofilms, the techniques being used to study them, and possible strategies for controlling their growth more successfully. It should provide a valuable reference source for information on biofilms and their control for many years to come.

Descriere
Including contributions from international experts from widely diverse areas of the field, this book presents a state-of-the-art picture of the knowledge of biofilms, the techniques being used to study them, and possible strategies for controlling their growth more successfully. The twenty-four chapters discuss issues such as microscopy methods for studying biofilms, gene expression of cells attached to surfaces, animal models for the study of bacterial biofilms, biofilms in the oral cavity, food industry biofilms, environmentally acceptable control of biofilms in the pulp and paper industry, biofilms without a substratum, and more.
