SynopsisSalmonella enterica encompasses a diverse range of bacteria that cause a spectrum of diseases in many hosts. However, advancements in the prevention and treatment of its infections have been hampered by limited research efforts and lack of multidisciplinary approaches. This book covers a diverse range of relevant topics, including epidemiological and clinical aspects, molecular pathogenesis, and immunity to disease and vaccines. The book's up-to-date information on key aspects of salmonellosis in humans and animals, will interest graduate students and researchers, as well as clinicians., Salmonella enterica encompasses a diverse range of bacteria that cause a spectrum of diseases in many hosts. Advancements in prevention and treatment of S. enterica infections have at times been hampered by compartmentalization of research efforts and lack of multidisciplinary approaches. This book attempts to cover a diverse range of topics related to the biology of S. enterica infections, including epidemiological and clinical aspects, molecular pathogenesis, immunity to disease and vaccines. S. enterica infections are important zoonoses and therefore material on infections of animals and public health issues have also been considered. Each chapter can be read independently, but the full contents of the book will provide the reader with up-to-date knowledge on all the key aspects of salmonellosis in humans and animals. It will therefore be of interest to graduate students and researchers, as well as to clinicians, whose research focuses on this important pathogen., Leading researchers discuss key aspects of the biology of Salmonella enterica infections in this broad-ranging book. It will equip the reader with detailed and up-to-date knowledge of S. enterica, giving an integrated view of clinical, molecular and immunological aspects of these infections.
