As with the first edition, this new edition of Living in a Microbial World is written for students taking a general microbiology course, or a microbiology-based course for non-science majors. The conversational style and use of practical, everyday examples make the essential concepts of microbiology accessible to a wide audience. While using this approach, the text maintains scientific rigor with clear explanations spanning the breadth of microbiology, including health, evolution, ecology, food production, biotechnology, and industrial processes.
Each chapter contains a series of case studies based on microbiology in the news, in history, and in literature. There are questions at the end of each case study and the end of each chapter, as well as an online quiz with help on answering the questions. The text, questions, and cases have been updated to reflect the changing influence of microbiology in the world today, from the microbiome, to new disease outbreaks (Ebola and Zika) and antibiotic resistance, to new biotechnology tools (CRISPR-Cas).
Living in a Microbial World, Second Edition is additionally supported by the Garland Science Learning System. This homework platform is designed to evaluate and improve student performance and allows instructors to select assignments on specific topics and review the performance of the entire class, as well as individual students, via the instructor dashboard. Students receive immediate feedback on their mastery of the topics, and will be better prepared for lectures and classroom discussions. The user-friendly system provides a convenient way to engage students while assessing progress. Performance data can be used to tailor classroom discussion, activities, and lectures to address students' needs precisely and efficiently.

Описание: Topley & Wilson's Microbiology and Microbial Infections has grown from one to eight volumes since first published in 1929, reflecting the ever-increasing
breadth and depth of knowledge in each of the areas covered. The tenth edition continues the tradition of providing the most comprehensive reference to microorganisms and the
resulting infectious diseases currently available. Each volume includes up-to-date evidence-based reviews of clinical practice and research, all extensively referenced, ensuring that
clinicians and academics have access to all the essential information in one authoritative resource.
This CD-ROM is a fully searchable reference resource developed to help
you make the most of the vast amount of information available in Topley & Wilson. It contains all of the text, tables, figures, equations and references from the print edition. The
content is divided into the five subject areas covered by the books (Virology, Bacteriology, Medical Mycology, Parasitology and Immunology) and can be accessed by browsing through
the contents for each subject or by searching across as much or as little of the content as desired using the customizable search function.
The CD-ROM has been
developed to allow easy and intuitive use: each chapter is clearly laid out, with hyperlinks to accompanying figures, tables and references, and useful navigational tools include easily
accessible contents lists, lists of figures and tables for each chapter, and a list of abbreviations available from every screen for quick reference. Further invaluable features allow you to: -
link from references to Medline abstracts - bookmark sections of interest - save favorite searches - print and export elements of the content for further use There is also a
comprehensive Help section. System requirements PC Intel Pentium II processor, Pentium III or higher recommended; Microsoft(R) Windows 98(SE), NT4, ME, 2000, XP; 64 MB of

Описание: Metabolic engineering is the practice of genetically optimizing metabolic and regulatory networks within cells to increase production and/or recovery of certain substance from cells. In Microbial Metabolic Engineering: Methods and Protocols expert researchers in the field detail many of the methods which are now commonly used to study metabolic engineering. These include methods and techniques to engineer genes and pathways, use of modern biotechnology tools in microbial metabolic engineering, and examples of metabolic engineering for real world applications such as whole cell biosensors and acetate control in large scale fermentation. Written in the highly successful Methods in Molecular Biology™ series format, chapters include introductions to their respective topics, lists of the necessary materials and reagents, step-by-step, readily reproducible laboratory protocols, and key tips on troubleshooting and avoiding known pitfalls. Authoritative and practical, Microbial Metabolic Engineering: Methods and Protocols seeks to provide researchers with an overview of key topics on microbial metabolic engineering.
