Antimicrobial Drug Resistance is divided into Volume 1 which has sections covering a general overview of drug resistance and mechanisms of drug resistance ?

This volume presents the basic concepts and practical experimental details investigators need to understand, develop, and successfully apply ELISA methodology. Includes numerous worked examples, detailed instructions, and extensive illustrations.

Based on the GABAergic nature of these neurons and their synaptic contacts with other spiny neurons, several authors have proposed that the spiny projection neurons form a lateral inhibition type of neural network [3-5].

Finally, a role for che- therapy had finally become established, principally through phase III studies c- paring chemotherapy to radiation in mostly locally advanced stages III and IV that had undergone resection.

A benchmark review on how specific nutrients or adverse nutritional states impact the components of the IGF (Insulin-like Growth Factor) system and affect human health and disease.

In Heme, Chlorophyll, and Bilins: Methods and Protocols, an interdisciplinary panel of hands-on investigators describe in detail how to work successfully with chlorophyll, heme, and bilins in biological, medical, chemical, and biochemical research.

In Computational Neuroanatomy: Principles and Methods, the path-breaking investigators who founded the field review the principles and key techniques available to begin the creation of anatomically accurate and complete models of the brain.

The Methods in Molecular Medicine series is intended as a resource for both novice and experienced investigators attempting to diversify their tech- logical base in research.

The earliest work in the field was primarily in the hands of botanists and many of the approaches to the under standing of the chemical composition of cells and tissues involved techniques such as microincineration, which destroyed structural integrity.

Presents time-saving microwave techniques for processing biological samples for evaluation by different microscopic methods. This work provides reproducible protocols including both classic methods and techniques such as in vivo labeling, formalin fixation of fresh tissue, vacuum processing, and processing for scanning electron microscopy.

In Glutamate and Addiction, world-renowned scientific experts critically review all of the evidence for the role of glutamatergic systems in opiate, stimulant, and alcohol addiction.

In Cancer Screening: A Practical Guide for Physicians, a panel of highly experienced clinicians and researchers from around the world present their up-to-date screening techniques for a wide variety of cancers.

Leading researchers synthesize scattered experimental data to help develop an intimate understanding of how cytokines and chemokines are involved in the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases.

Provides a variety of treatment options available for the management of breast cancer patients. This work reviews the clinical aspects of breast cancer, including, epidemiology and risk factors, breast imaging, biopsy techniques, breast-conserving surgery and reconstruction, mastectomy, and developments in radiation, hormonal, and chemotherapy.

The last decade has witnessed a steady stream of new synthetic approaches to peptide mimetics, compounds that replace phy- ologically vulnerable peptide functionalities with chemical modules of - creased stability and cellular penetration.

The prmcipal objective of Bioremediation Protocols is to make the fruits of some of this research available in a different format to that of the textbook or journal article. In common with p- wous volumes in this and the companion Methods in Molecular Biology series, an extensive "Notes" section is provided with each chapter.

The purpose of the two volumes of Protocols and Te- niques in Biosensors is to provide a basic reference tool and starting point for use by graduate students, postdoctoral and senior researchers, and technicians m academics, industry, and government research establishments, to enable rapid entry into the field of biosensors.

This comprehensive review deals with all aspects of Tachykinin receptors in particular, and with neuropeptide/peptide and G-protein linked receptors in general. This book should be of interest to pharmacologists, neuroscientists, biochemists, toxicologists, and molecular and cellular biologists.

Electrocardiography is a mature discipline, so familiar to both doctors and patients that it's hardly noticed, one of those tests that have always been there, like the white count and hemoglobin, not something one has to think about much, or question.

This text is a treatise drawing together and critically examining the current explosion of experimental and clinical research on the metabolism, nutrition, pharmacology, toxicology, pathology, neuropsychology, and developmental neurobiology of trace elements.

Such technology has been utilized widely and includes pregnancy and woman's health determination, cardiac and emergency conditions monitoring and testing, infectious disease including Flu screening, cancer marker screening, and drugs abuse testing.

Despite major advances in HIV treatment, many areas require more study, in order to create efficacious, potent antiretrovirals that can suppress viral load completely and durably without toxic side effects, to define unknown drug targets and fine-tune known targets, and to better understand the interplay between viral and host factors.

This work presents integrated coverage of recent advances in the molecular mechanisms of neurodegenerative diseases and describes how these mechanisms present new therapeutic targets.

In this updated handbook, a panel of well known and highly experienced geriatric physicians and infectious disease experts review the most important common infections affecting the elderly and delineate their well-proven techniques.

Movement Disorders: A Video Atlas is a practical and concise title offering an introduction to the field of movement disorders, which is expanding rapidly with the involvement of various disciplines and specialties.

A survey of clinical findings on the interactions between diet, stress, and mental health, and their impact on disease states. This book gives attention to the influence of stress on physical health, mental health, and cognitive function. It examines the effects of stress on chronic disorders, women, and cardiac function.

Assembles information to find clinical diagnoses and choose pharmacologic therapies for patients. This book includes a method for recognition of and a therapeutic approach to arrhythmias, an approach to drug management of hypertension, algorithms for the diagnosis and treatment of syncope, and diagnostic information on hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

A concise and comprehensive review of findings and differential diagnoses found on the oral board examination for diagnostic radiology.
