Content:
Designed as both a textbook and a reference, this book outlines the principles, methods, and application of this new discipline of public health. Techniques used in the field of molecular biology have been recognized as critical tools in solving infectious disease problems. This introductory volume, distinguishing molecular epidemiology from taxonomy and phylogeny, will familiarize epidemiologists with molecular biology and molecular biologists with epidemiology, and presents vocabulary and concepts of both fields to infectious disease clinicians.
Note:
Principles and approaches -- Laboratory methods used for strain typing of pathogens: conventional and molecular techniques -- Laboratory methods used for strain typing pathogens: PCR-based strain typing methods -- Analysis of similarity and relatedness in molecular epidemiology -- Distinguishing epidemic and endemic occurrence of infectious diseases -- Stratification and refinement of data in epidemiologic investigations -- Distinguishing pathovars from nonpathovars: escherichia coli -- Distinguishing pathovars from nonpathovars: streptococcus pneumoniae -- Distinguishing pathovars from nonpathovars: helicobacter pylori -- Hospital infections: staphylococcus aureus -- Hospital infections: gram-negative bacteria -- Identifying pathogen's biologic determinants of disease transmission.
