میکروبیولوژی درمانی: پروبیوتیک‌ها و استراتژی‌های مرتبط

Providing a state-of-the-art overview of the field, this volume breaks new ground in explaining the breakthroughs possible with therapeutic microbiology. The first volume of its kind in the field, Therapeutic Microbiology explores the potential and actual uses of the many methods for altering the microbiotas of humans and animals: probiotics, prebiotics, synbiotics, bacteriophages, and replacement therapy. Abstract: * First book devoted to the field of therapeutic microbiology * Serves as an important reference source for clinicians and researchers in both human and veterinary medicine and in dentistry * Contains the latest knowledge on this dramatically growing field. � Read more...
