Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book blends information on classical fundamental aspects with recent development in fungal, bacterial, and, viral systematics. The textbook of fungi presents information on the morphology, life cycle and their economic uses in human life. Special attempt has been made on the biological activities of the microbial products. They produce several types of drugs including antibiotics, drugs that reduce high blood pressure. Because viruses, bacteria, and fungi cause many well-known diseases, it is common to confuse them, but they are as different as a mouse and an elephant. A look at the size, structure, reproduction, hosts, and diseases caused by each will shed some light on the important differences between these germs. As bacterial antibiotic resistance continues to exhaust our supply of effective antibiotics, a global public health disaster appears likely. Poor financial investment in antibiotic research has exacerbated the situation. A call to arms raised by several prestigious scientific organisations a few years ago rallied the scientific community, and not the scope of antibacterial research has broadened considerably. These are very tiny, simple organisms. In fact, they are so tiny that they can only be seen with a special, very powerful microscope called an "e;electron microscope,"e; and they are so simple that they are technically not even considered "e;alive."e; The book describes fungi, bacteria and viruses in light of recent information.

Download or read book A Textbook Of Fungi Bacteria And Viruses written by Dr. Yashowardhan Singh and published by Academic Guru Publishing House. This book was released on 2023-10-03 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Around 8,000 different fungal species are considered to be plant diseases. The book describes how they reproduce through spores and how they produce threading hyphae (mycelium). They may travel through rhizomorphs, sclerotia, wind, and water. Natural apertures (lenticels, stomata, hydathodes), intact surfaces (enzymatic), wounds, and pollination are among the ways in which fungi might infiltrate a host. Bacteria are single-celled microorganisms that may multiply rapidly and form colonies with long, thin filaments. They have just one way to reproduce, and that’s by binary fission. The offspring are genetically inert and will die without a host or growing media. The book explains how the bacteria invade the plant via its cell walls, its specialized structures (cutin), and its non-cutinized sections (root hairs, nectarine). Since viruses need a host to proliferate, it may be said that they are not really living beings. Their biology is still mostly mysterious, despite the obvious attempts being made to learn more about them. They might be hiding in the plants you’re watering, old glacial clouds, seawater, or even surface water. Most are very resistant to environmental changes and adaptable to several host types; others are more picky. When a cell is infected by a virus, the “cell’s mechanical production process” is altered, and the cell becomes a source of new viruses. The cell then explodes, releasing viral particles that infect neighbouring cells.

Download or read book Damp Indoor Spaces and Health written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2004-10-01 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Almost all homes, apartments, and commercial buildings will experience leaks, flooding, or other forms of excessive indoor dampness at some point. Not only is excessive dampness a health problem by itself, it also contributes to several other potentially problematic types of situations. Molds and other microbial agents favor damp indoor environments, and excess moisture may initiate the release of chemical emissions from damaged building materials and furnishings. This new book from the Institute of Medicine examines the health impact of exposures resulting from damp indoor environments and offers recommendations for public health interventions. Damp Indoor Spaces and Health covers a broad range of topics. The book not only examines the relationship between damp or moldy indoor environments and adverse health outcomes but also discusses how and where buildings get wet, how dampness influences microbial growth and chemical emissions, ways to prevent and remediate dampness, and elements of a public health response to the issues. A comprehensive literature review finds sufficient evidence of an association between damp indoor environments and some upper respiratory tract symptoms, coughing, wheezing, and asthma symptoms in sensitized persons. This important book will be of interest to a wide-ranging audience of science, health, engineering, and building professionals, government officials, and members of the public.
