Bacterial Degradation of Organic and Inorganic Materials: Staphylococcus aureus Meets the Nanoworld (PDF Book)
Interdisciplinary Work on Bacterial Degradation of Organic and Inorganic Materials
Written by Marziale Milani, Roberta Curia, Natalia Vladimirovna Shevlyagina, Francesco Tatti, this interdisciplinary work discusses the bacterial degradation of organic and inorganic materials, such as prosthetic devices, and the production of non-engineered nanoparticles. It focuses on the interaction of these often toxic nanoparticles with the environment, microorganisms, and the human body. The book covers the most recent and interesting microscopy technologies in microbiology and soft matters and dedicates a section to electron microscopy, which is the method of choice to investigate bacterial colonization and degradation of plastic polymers. The final chapter is devoted to Lyubov Vasilievna Didenko (1958 – 2015), a passionate researcher who contributed substantially to electron microscopy research and its applications in studying bacterial-polymer interactions.
