Bacterial Degradation of Organic and Inorganic Materials : Staphylococcus aureus Meets the Nanoworld (EPUB)

Bacterial Degradation of Organic and Inorganic Materials : Staphylococcus aureus Meets the Nanoworld (EPUB)

By Roberta Curia , Natalia Vladimirovna Shevlyagina , Francesco Tatti , Marziale Milani

This interdisciplinary study examines how microbes break down organic and inorganic materials , including prosthetic devices , producing non-engineered nanoparticles (NPs) as a result . The interaction of these frequently harmful NPs with the environment , microbes and host human body are the main points of attention .

The preferred technique for examining bacterial colonization and breakdown of polymeric polymers is electron microscopy . Because of this , a whole part of the book is devoted to the most intriguing and cutting-edge microscopy techniques in microbiology and soft matter . A passionate researcher who made significant contributions to the field of electron microscopy research and its applications in understanding bacterial-polymer

interactions , Lyubov Vasilievna Didenko (1958–2015) is honored in the book’s final chapter on the complex and multivariate relationships between a microscopist and electron microscopy images . Researchers and advanced students working in the domains of general and clinical microbiology , nanobiology , materials sciences, and image analysis are the target audience for the book .
