Description
ESKAPE Pathogens: Virulence, Resistance, and Management provides comprehensive coverage on ESKAPE pathogens, including their virulence mechanisms, resistance patterns, and challenges in their management. The book offers the latest information on ESKAPE pathogens' pathogenicity, mechanisms of antibiotic resistance, and innovative approaches to manage these pathogens. It explores recent advancements in the field of genomics, proteomics, and transcriptomics that could potentially provide valuable insights into the mechanisms and genetic basis of antibiotic resistance in ESKAPE pathogens. Finally, the book highlights the need for alternative treatment options and innovative management strategies to combat the emergence of multidrug-resistant strains. This is a helpful resource to researchers, clinicians, educators, industry professionals, and advanced students interested in the latest research and strategies for combating multidrug-resistant pathogens.
