Microbial natural products have been an important traditional source of valuable antibiotics and other drugs but interest in them waned in the 1990s when big pharma decided that their discovery was no longer cost-effective and concentrated instead on synthetic chemistry as a sou…
This book illustrates that the fungal cell wall is critical for the biology and ecology of all fungi and especially for human fungal pathogens. Readers will learn that the composition of the fungal cell wall is a unique structure which cannot be found in the human host. Conseque…
The incidence of fungal infections increases with the increase in antibiotic usage and increasing immunosuppressed populations. There is no longer only one antifungal agent and the response of fungi to various agents is not always predictable. The need for standardized antifunga…

The clinical microbiology laboratory is often a sentinel for the detection of drug resistant strains of microorganisms. Standardized protocols require continual scrutiny to detect emerging phenotypic resistance patterns. The timely notification of clinicians with susceptibility …
The clinical microbiology laboratory is often a sentinel for the detection of drug resistant strains of microorganisms. It is vital that microbiology laboratories stay current with standard and emerging methods and have a clear definition of their role in integrated patient care…
A comprehensive introduction to this exciting and developing field.
