Pseudomonas Aeruginosa as an Opportunistic Pathogen (Infectious Agents and Pathogenesis)

Provides balanced coverage of epidemiology, pathogenesis, clinical features, and control measures in 19 chapters contributed by authorities on specific aspects of P. aeruginosa research. The volume should prove useful to physicians and surgeons who have in their care patients infested, or at risk of becoming infested, with P. aeruginosa . It will hopefully also stimulate further studies on the mechanisms whereby P. aeruginosa establishes itself and causes disease in compromised patients. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc.
