Hrsg. v. Dennis Bamford und Mark Zuckerman

Online

Inhalt :: Content

Umfassendes Standardreferenzwerk zur Virologie mit ausführlichen Beiträgen von internationalen Fachwissenschaftlern und -experten. Das Themenspektrum reicht von Viren in der Umwelt über pathogene Viren von Menschen, Tieren und Pflanzen bis hin zu Viren von Mikroorganismen. Es fasst die wichtigsten Bereiche und Konzepte zur Klassifizierung, Struktur, Epidemiologie, Pathogenese, Diagnose, Behandlung und Prävention von Viren zusammen. Bedeutende Aktualisierungen und neue Einträge konzentrieren sich auf Forschungsgebiete, die in den letzten Jahren in den Vordergrund getreten sind, wie z.B. neu auftretende Infektionskrankheiten (Zika-Virus, Ebola-Virus, Usutu-Virus, SARS-CoV-2), antivirale Therapie (Fortschritte bei HIV und HCV), Bioinformatik und Point-of-Care-Diagnostik. Der Online-Ausgabe liegt die 2021 in 5 Bänden veröffentlichte 4. Auflage der Printausgabe zugrunde.
