Microbial Foodborne Diseases: Mechanisms of Pathogenesis and Toxin SynthesisJeffrey W. Cary, John E. Linz, Deepak Bhatnagar CRC Press, 1999 M11 29 - 550 pages Through the use of molecular and cellular biological techniques, numerous advances have been made in understanding the molecular basis of virulence mechanisms and toxin biosynthesis in organisms that contaminate food and feed. Microbial Foodborne Diseases: Mechanisms of Pathogenesis and Toxin Synthesis serves as an advanced text on these techniques |
