Contemporary Medical Biotechnology Research for Human Health
About This Book
Contemporary Medical Biotechnology Research for Human Health discusses a range of currently available solutions required to defeat the ever-increasing human health challenges. The junction between biotechnology and biomedical/health sciences has led to several improvements in patients' treatment, diagnosis and well-being. The book discusses vital topics ranging from biofilms and UTI, mycobacterial infections, diabetes, aplastic anemia, oral cancer, and possible applications of nanoparticles. In addition, it discusses computer-aided drug design using natural products and new technologies to develop antibiotics. This is a valuable resource for biotechnology and biomedical researchers, bioinformaticians and members of health sciences interested in understanding recent technological developments.
- Bridges the gap between biotechnology and biomedical/health sciences in a holistic way to leverage multidisciplinary research
- Discusses the benefits of using potential microbes and natural products to improve health protection through biotechnological intervention
- Presents several case studies and practical applications of recent findings in the field in order to be easily applied by the readers
