Part one.Introduction to microbiology -- 1.The history and scope of microbiology -- 2.Microscopes and the study of microbial structure -- 3.Procaryotic cell structure and function -- 4.Eucaryotic cell structure and function -- 5.Viruses and other acellular agents -- Part two.Microbial nutrition, growth and control -- 6.Microbial nutrition -- 7.Microbial growth -- 8.Control of microorganisms -- Part three.Microbial metabolism -- 9.Introduction to metabolism -- 10.Catabolism: energy releases and conservation -- 11.Anabolism: the user of energy in biosynthesis -- Part four: Microbial molecular biology and genetics -- 12.Genes: structure, replication, and expression -- 13.Regualtion of gene expression -- 14.Mechanisms of genetic variation -- 15.Microbial genomics -- 16.Biotechnology and industrial microbiology -- Part five.The diversity of the microbial world -- 17.Microbial evolution, taxonomy, and diversity -- 18.The Archaea -- 19.The deinocci and gram-negative nonprotoebacteria -- 20.The proteobacteria -- 21.The low G+ C gram-positve bactera -- 22.The high G + C gram-positive bacteria -- 23.Eucaryotic microbes -- 24.Viral diversity -- Part six.Ecology and symbosis -- 25.Biogeochemical cycling and the study of microbial ecology -- 26.Microorganisms in natural environments -- 27.Microbial interactions -- Part seven.Host defeses -- 28.Non-specific (adaptive) immunity -- Part eight. Microbial diseases and their control. 30.Pathogenicity of microorganisms -- 31.Antimicrobial chemotherapy -- 32.Clinical microbiology and immunology -- 33.The epidemiology of infectious disease -- Part nine.Applied microbiology -- 3.4.Microbiology of food -- 35.Applied environmental microbiology.
In using the 7th edition of Prescott, Harley and Klein's 'Microbiology' as the foundation for the development of this book, the authors present a discussion of the broad discipline of microbiology and focus on readability and the integration of several key themes with an emphasis on evolution, ecology and diversity throughout.
