Dehalogenation : Microbial Processes and Environmental Applications |
|
|
From Book News, Inc.
This work provides a perspective on how natural and synthetic organohalides are formed and degraded and how these processes are incorporated into a global halogen cycle. Chapters explore the ecology, biochemistry, and genetics of dehalogenating microorganisms and review the range of biologically mediated dehalogenation mechanisms. Many of the problematic organohalides, such as pesticides and chlorofluorocarbons, are covered in detail, and bioremediation technol... >> |

Practical Atlas for Bacterial Identification |
|
|
From Book News, Inc.
Cullimore (Regina Water Research Institute, U. of Regina, U.K.) presents a pictorial approach to common understandings of bacterial identification. Rather than discuss the molecular particulars of bacteria, he represents the shared characteristics of various families of bacteria. Also included are discussions of the techniques applied to obtain identification cultures and descriptions of the major groups of bacteria.Book News, Inc.®, Portland, OR
