Based on a workshop titled "Streptococcus pneumoniae: Molecular Biology and Mechanisms of Disease -- Update for the 1990s" held in September 1996 in Oeiras, Portugal, this volume contains some 40 contributions written by some 50 biochemists, molecular cmicrobiologists, geneticists, zoologists, pharmacologists, and pediatricians from 12 countries. Contributions are divided into six sections: an introductory segment addressing work to be done in the field and the disease's functional anatomy; the disease's chromosome structure, recombination, and cloning; capsule, cell wall, and virulence factors; Pneumococcal disease and animal models; antibiotic resistance; and surveillance and intervention.Tomasz, Alexander is the author of 'Streptococcus Pneumoniae Molecular Biology & Mechanisms of Disease' with ISBN 9780913113851 and ISBN 0913113859.
